Some good news to start your weekend. New Balmores release dropping next week, and we had to take it to Los Angeles for this one…

Cockatoo Island in Sydney was the destination for Balmores last weekend as we made our journey up for the Outpost Project, a huge street art festival. Skateboards, spraypaint, stickers, stencils, shirts; anything and everything street was being celebrated in this menagerie of creativity and self-expression.

Balmores might have its origins in Melbourne, but living, breathing and celebrating the street culture around us, it becomes obvious that our swagger is, distinctly Australian.

Last weekend the Princes Gardens in Prahran played host to the Converse Block Party, showcasing various local skate, basketball and hip hop talents doing what they do best…

Crowds gathered as some of Melbourne’s finest skaters hit the half pipe at full speed, eager to show off their skills — and grab a piece of the $7000 prize money.
The party could be heard blocks away and with great food and free refreshments an arms length away, it wasn’t hard to settle into the vibe of the party.

A great day in all, and a positive way to show love for the local community!
