Our Weekly Wrap-Up skate-news collection for the past week (two-weeks! He he!) ending 2-24-2017 has arrived. Enjoy the full spread of shred!

First off, we have some strange-brew and low-fi hijinx (and wierdboarding of course) from the Fancy Lad crew—the vid title explains things perfectly: DOCUDRAMA [season one] (episode 1) *season finale*. Next up is a fun video from Bustin Boards featuring William Royce skating the streets of Baltimore on their symmetrical Shrike longboard. Oh yeah, here’s a rad video from Loaded Boards‘ Spanish Ambassador Miquel Moya getting his street loggin’ on in Barcelona. To round things out with some tranny/bowl action, we have a sick new video from Bronson Speed Co. featuring Cedric Pabich switching it into ‘high gear’ and storming through Peck Park in San Pedro.
