Take Five (Pushes)

Push Periodical, the independent, print photography-oriented skate mag orchestrated by legendary photographer from the U.K. Richard Hart (interviewed by LIVE here), celebrates its five years of existence (only? already?) as a petite entreprise with "5", an exclusive edit signed by just-as-legendary Sony VX-1000 wizard Zach Chamberlin which revisits a past half-of-a-decade mostly spent on the road - or when the San Francisco hills decide to lead you somewhere in between Portugal and Hungary... On the program: nearly forty skaters documented throughout that timespan, whose most footage has found a home in different productions in the meantime and yet, they manage to take a whole new flavo(u)r here - which isn't that surprising as Rich can definitely school anyone on how clementines really make camembert come alive, and that's in spite of all their preconceived notions. Behind the camera, in addition to Zach: Colin Read, Romain Batard, Chris Thiessen, Grant Yasura... And Dan Wolfe, for the final tribute to Keith Hufnagel - of course. The soundtrack is by a longtime friend of Richard's: Brigid Dawson.

Rising sun dreams…

Going to Japan to skate is one thing. Going to Japan to skate, and more, with the locals is another… Off course, The Northern Co. heads have genuine friends to visit over there, and you can feel it right away… The result is that, from San Francisco hills to Osaka train station, you can feel how at home they are, with many homies that rip just as much as they do!

North of the border

As seen in the recent issue of Push Periodical, the homies at The Northern Co. take on Los Angeles, and do it their way… A great collection of spots found along the less traveled sidewalks. Skated the way we all dig!

Portland Excursion

Once again, The Northern Co. do it right, with the kind of trip to Portland you would have loved to share with them, in between camping, woods exploration and stimulating street furniture. They just have it figured out! Let's note, once again, the explosive smoothness of Jameel Douglas!

The Northern West

At The Northern Co., they know how put a smile on our face, that's for sure, and this new edit is in the same vein at the previous ones, in its form and content: timeless and "classic" street skating, in the best sense possible. And the new addition, Jameel Douglas follows that path, mixing the last three decades of skateboarding that have happened in San Francisco. Ideal with a large coffee!

Northern Soul

The "SF Treat" edits are always tasteful and tasty, that you already know, and if this is one is announced as a special around the SF chapter of The Northern Co, you will know right away that you are in for a great watch, and will not be proved wrong… A great reminder that you should read an interview of the two founders of the American independent brand by the good people at Palomino!

Jesse Narvaez & Bryan Botelho 5 W's

After their joined part, seemed to make sense to team up those two and ask them about The Northern Co…

The Northern Co. Promo / premiere

You might not be too familiar with The Northern Co. yet, and to be frank it is their riders that first caught our attention! The Long Island based brand is just starting to make waves, but we can already state that they have great taste!
