Bristol's M32 spot has been a rainy day haven for as far back as anyone can care to remember. Long before the DIY builds started, the city's locals would migrate there to skate the various sets of stairs and ledge formations whenever the weather would turn against them. Gradually, over the course of the last 15 or so years, the spots wet weather potential has been realised and built upon, as flatbars and blocks started to be installed, then concrete creations started to appear, and for a few years, there was even a wooden mini ramp, too. Then, over lockdown, a whole new section sprung into existence, consisting of a large hip with adjoining quarterpipes and bank-to-wall setups. These days, if you're in the West Country trying to skate on a rainy day (or even on dry ones), there's only one place you're heading - the M32.
Bristol filmer Liam 'Shicken' Jeffries has been a firm fixture at the M32 for years now, and has been steadily documenting the ever varied skateboarding that has been taking place there. As a result of Shicken's near constant presence, he's managed to piece together a solid 45-minute video that's filmed entirely in the confines of the DIY. The M32 Video was premiered at the spot on Shicken's birthday last week, and is now online and ready to be watched below! Expect a slew of new footage from Calum Simpson, Joe Hill, Tim Hill, Stew Paton, Ben Rowley, Daniel Gingerfox, Carl 'Yebsie' Harling, Renos Kakoyiannis, Damo Quinn-Thompson, Tommy Robinson, Jago Kinnersley, Matt Bailey, Dan Higginson, Russ Heideman, Harry Slater-McKenzie, Hasan Kamil, George Thompson, George O'Neill, Nic Chappell and a strong collection of friends and family.
