Hey you the Jock Steady Crew, show what you do make a blog make a move.. sorry! This is the Weblog of Edinburgh and Glasgow's Focus Skateboard Store. Bringing you relevant news, happenings and random musings, details on some of the fine products we sell and anything else that crosses our collective minds when we should be doing real work. Cheers.

Just arrived is the new Black Box Collection from Gravis. This season they have hooked up with the legendary New York man about town Jeff Staple. Inspired by New York winters, the collection consists of footwear, travel luggage and clothing and comes in 3 different colourways - Fresh Powder, Parking Lot and Wet Cement, which represent the different phases of snowfall. The collection will be available to buy online in the next few days or right now in our Edinburgh store.
Just arrived is Nothing But The Truth the first movie by Nike SB. Starring Brian Anderson, Todd Jordan, Daniel Shimizu, Danny Supa, Chet Childress, Richard Mulder, Paul Rodriguez, Gino Iannucci, Reese Forbes, Lance Mountain, Stefan Janoski, Omar Salazar, Lewis Marnell, Clark Hassler, Wieger Van Wageningen, Dan Murphy and more.
To clebrate the imminent release of one of skateboards most highly anticipated movies, Fully Flared, we've teamed up with Lakai to give you a chance to win some superb prizes and also the chance to be at the London Premiere on the 18th of November.
Nike SB box number 4 makes it appearance this month in a somewhat autumn like Gold/Black colourway. Inside these new boxes we have three new shoes. From left to right we have the "Skate Deck" Dunk Hi, the brown Elephant Print Zoom Tre and the Violet Zoom Classic. £69.95, £69.95 and £49.95 respectively. Available in our Glasgow store right now and online in the near future. 
It's that time of year again for the infamous War Of The Roses weekend. This year Skateboard Scotland have taken over the reigns and are organising the transport to get you down there.
It seems a very long time ago that we first heard about the Lakai video project known as Fully Flared, but finally the wait is nearly over.
We are proud to announce that from November 2007 we will be stocking apparel from Diamond and UXA. Stay tuned.
Our friends at Surface Pressure Records and Radio Magnetic have been out in Brazil recently recording a series of documentaries for the Trocabrahma project, a cultural exchange between the UK and Brazil.
Our very first shipment from The Hundreds ahas arrived and is now uploaded to our online store.
Looks like Apple will be hoovering more money out of my pocket when this arrives at the end of September. Or maybe they'll give me a free one for advertising it on here. Doubt it.
The first batch of the Fall 2007 collection by Obey has now arrived in both of our stores. As always expect something that little bit different and don't expect to see it anywhere else as we are the sole stockists in Edinburgh and Glasgow.
Someone in their infinite wisdom has decided that over 18's should not be allowed to use the new London Bridge skatepark as it will protect younger skaters from "grooming".
Slightly later than anticipated, the full collection of the Nike SB safari pack has now arrived. Included in the pack is a cap, belt, windrunner jacket, wallet, t-shirt and of course the safari Zoom Tre's.
Just spoke to Adam Mondon about the new Harmony DVD Wolfstadt and a promo copy is winging it's way to us now. We'll be showing it at 5pm in the Glasgow store on Satuarday 1st of September. Wolfstadt features the many skills of Joe Gavin, Danijel Todorovic, Eddie Belvedere, Tony Da Silva, Jak Pietryga, Danny Jack and Glasgows own Jamie Bolland and Paul Silky Silvester. Come check it out.
Just arrived in both our stores are the highly anticipated Zoom Tre Safari. The colourway is inspired by the classic Air Safari shoe and is, in my mind, one of the great sneakers of all time. The original Safari's go for a mint these days but you can have a slice of the Safari action for a much more modest £69.95. Also comes with spare orange laces for a nice little flip. Phone either Glasgow on 0141 548 8777 or Edinburgh on 0131 229 9009 for mail order or buy them right here.
Just received an e-mail from L.A confirming that we are going to be the sole stockist in Edinburgh of The Hundreds. We've been fans of The Hundreds for a while now and we're stoked to be working with them and offering it up to yourselves.
