Etnies have created a nice little mini site to celebrate the release of their upcoming A Tale of Two Cities line.
The site features a selection of videos and photos showcasing the skills of Willow from Berlin and Joe Gavin from Manchester.
You can browse through the signature t-shirts and shoes that both riders have helped design for the range which pay tribute to their home towns.
There is also an interesting blog section, rider profiles and a cool little map feature that shows you all of the skate spots and skate shops in Berlin and Manchester.
This is pretty handy if you are planning a trip to either of these locations in the near future.

Have a look at the video of some of the Cliché squad laying it down and tasting the savoury flavours of La Baguette!

All the dudes and mates were in LA recently to celebrate the world premiere of Blueprint skateboard’s latest video offering Make Friends With The Colour Blue. With so many accents going around we thought it’d be proper to ask people about what foreign words or sayings they found amusing. Lurkervision for world peace.
