JOIN US! On Sunday June 21st for National Go Skateboarding Day. We will be hosting a few mini events throughout the day and welcome all to come skate and spectate. Note: These are non sanctioned skate events. We invite all to join and show Birmingham that we need a public skatepark! Below is a list of the times and events. CLICK ON THE PAGE FOR A DETAILED LIST AND DIRECTIONS TO EACH SPOT.

Congrats to Riley Cutcliffe on his $1000 grand prize win at the BattleGround Skate Contest this past weekend! Riley ripped the course after showing up late and barely getting any practice. Switch tailslides down the hubba and Switch Frontboards down the handrail were just a couple of the tricks that sealed the deal for Riley's win.

James Hardy is back on his board a bit after having knee surgery about 5 weeks ago. Plenty of physical therapy and rest are what the doctor ordered for James, though he cannot resist getting back on board! Check out the vimeo clip of James about 4 weeks after knee surgery.

Faith Skate Supply would like to invite everyone to "Join Us" for "National Go Skateboarding Day" on Sunday, June 21st.  The City of Birmingham needs to realize that skateboarding is here to stay and that we need a public skatepark!  Faith will be posting numerous "mini events/contests" that we will be coordinating for Go Skateboarding Day. 

We had a great time this past weekend in Lafayette, LA while attending the "King of the Park" contest. Great times on the way there too! Daniel Cutcliffe made it to the top 10 or so and we are proud of him! Some heavy hitting skateboarding going on at the contest and it drew contestants from as far as Tampa, Fl.

Checked out the Hammond, LA park on the way! Awesome!

Join us next Saturday May 9th @ Faith Skate Supply for a sneak peek premiere of the new Blind Video! We will play the video at 5 p.m. in the store during business hours! This video is supposed to be amazing! Don't miss it! Blind video will be available for purchase at Faith very soon! ********FREE AUTOGRAPHED DECK GIVEAWAY!!

News/ Update 3-18-09

Thanks to everyone who came out for our "Day of Street Skating via the Dart"! The day was awesome even though everyone got split up. Over 100 skaters showed up to take over the newly paved streets of Birmingham. We got calls from tons of local Birmingham businesses that were overwhelmed when they saw the huge masses of skateboarders having fun! We are still working on a video clip of the day to be posted here soon! Let's really take over the streets on "National Go Skateboarding Day" this June 21st! Now if the city officials would just recognize the need for a public skatepark, our local skateboarders would be able to get together for a day of fun at a sanctioned skate spot! Enjoy this sequence of Daniel Cutcliffe as well as more in the photos section.

Congrats to James Hardy who recently was named Thrasher Magazine's "AM OF THE YEAR"! James had a huge year in '08 with his Fallen "Ride the Sky" video part as well as tons of coverage in every magazine. We look forward to James turning pro one day (hopefully soon!). Currently James is taking time off his skateboard to rehabilitate a back injury he sustained and will be back on board very soon killing it! James will now be filming for a full part in the new Real Skateboards Video and for a new Faith Promo video to be released Holiday '09!
