It’s been a bumper month for Benny Fairfax this month, not only do he finish runner up in the game of S.K.A.T.E. the battle of the berrics to skate machine Mike Mo Capaldi, but he turns pro on Stereo skateboards and gets his own commemorative battle of the berrics campus vulc colourway in Adidas skate! Our man is definitely flying the british flag high and well deserved.

The Adidas campus colourway features grey suede and blue leather dip colour blocking and white out sole and a laser etched battle of the berrics logo detail on the heel.  It doesn’t look like these Adidas campus are going to be made available for general release however it looks like you will get the chance to win a set, keep your eye on the berrics for details.

We’ve been following the skateboarding at the battle at the berrics with great enthusiasm over the last few months and after nearly four months, 32 skaters, 16 games of SKATE, one Legion Of Doom, and a case of the Chicken Pox the first Battle At The Berrics is finally all over. It’s like that feeling on january 2nd when you have to get up and go to work or the last night of your summer holidays and you know you have to pack for school! Having said that, what a ride, some of skateboardings finest produced some of the finest skateboarding we’ve seen since, well, since in a long time!

The final went down to Mike Mo and Benny Fairfax whilst Billy Marks and PJ Ladd battled it out for the battle of the berrics 3rd and 4th spot! On top if that there was a surprise redemption battle pitching skateboarding legends and team mates (Girl skateboards and Lakai footwear) Erik Koston and Mike Carroll. I can’t stress enough how good this competition has been for skateboarding, so much enthusiasm and such a great atmosphore. anyway, stop reading this and go out and skate…. or check out the berrics for all the action!!

Tension has been mounting over at the berrics as we get closure to the final. There have been some surprise upsets of the past few weeks that’s for sure. Koston out, Berra and MJ postponed week after week, our nerves can’t take much more S.K.A.T.E!

So, today due to Berra having the lurgy, Johnny Layton gets a second chance against MJ, we won’t tell you the winner just click here for one of the best games yet – MJ vs Layton BATB

Since when was Daniel Day-Lewis in the battle at the berrics, more to the point when did he become a pro skater!?!

Check out this weekends first installment of battle at the berrics pitching rail technician Billy Marks (Toy Machine skateboards and Fallen Footwear) against tech wizard Brandon Biebel (Lakai Footwear and Girl Skateboards). The winner goes through to face either berra or MJ, so either way it’s going to make a ridiculous semi final. Super close round this one, enjoy!
