The latest full-length offering from London-based Palace Skateboards.

If you follow skateboarding at all, you may have noticed that the “gulliest skate gang in London” has collaborated with the hippest bolt company in New York to drop a line of ***VERY RARE*** gear and a 20+ minute, cocaine-fueled video that’s sure to make Hypebeasts run to max out their credit cards.

AFTER NEARLY A DECADE OF MAKING SKATE VIDEOS shot exclusively on the VHS format, London’s Palace Skateboards have taken a landmark decision to switch it up and ditch this cumbersome, weighty, ludicrously outdated technology—and to replace it with an even more cumbersome, even more weighty, even more ludicrously outdated technology! VHS Palace is dead; long live the new era of Betamax Palace!

Un 1er janvier au matin, le téléphone sonne. Murphy, 25 ans, se réveille entouré de sa jeune femme et de son enfant de deux ans. Il écoute son répondeur. Sur le message, la mère d'Electra lui demande, très inquiète, s'il n'a pas eu de nouvelle de sa fille disparue depuis longtemps. Elle craint qu'il lui soit arrivé un accident grave. Au cours d'une longue journée pluvieuse, Murphy va se retrouver seul dans son appartement à se remémorer sa plus grande histoire d'amour, deux ans avec Electra. Une passion contenant toutes sortes de promesses, de jeux, d'excès et d'erreurs...

The Palace Palasonic skate video dropped November 2017, becoming an instant classic. The film clocks in at 40-minutes long, features the exploits of the Palace skate team over a 7-year period, and was shot completely on VHS to give the film a retro, lofi aesthetic.
