Last Orders: Gav Coughlan

Everyone’s favourite Zero and Emerica clad member of SkateDublin, Gav Coughlan, sorts us out his ‘Last Orders’ this week. He’s also claiming to be heading over our ways in the very, very near future, so if he survives more than a few days sleeping on my floor, there might be quite a bit of new web footage from him appearing on the site. Keep them eyes peeled I guess…

Last…

Drink you ordered: Bottle of Bavaria, cheapest drink there…

Person you spoke to: Finn while playing a bitta Halo.

Trick you filmed: Switch back bigspin down this horrible gap we always end up skating.

Trick you learnt: Back 5-0s front shoves out.

Trick you wish you hadn’t bothered landing: Front bigspin that set at the Sports Cafe in Cardiff – landed, stopped and then rolled with some added rubber knee steez.

Festival you went to: Oxegen in Kildare, Prodigy were fucking amazing.

Book you read: Haven’t read a book in about 10 years, was probably some Goosebumps book, they were the bomb!

Thing that made you mad: Playing Halo.

Piece of advice you received: ”Put a towel around it” my friend Gram when I said my neck hurts when I turn a certain way.

Song you sang along to: ‘Gimme the Loot’ – Biggie Smalls.

Skate video you watched from start to finish: ‘And Now’ – Malto is too good.

Memorable thing that NOB said: ”Drinking ketchup is a good way to hold you over til your food comes if its gonna take ages”, he then drank from the bottle of ketchup with a straw.

Irish skateboarder who impressed you: Cian Eades with that switch laser flip down that 8, perfection.

Non-Irish skateboarder who impressed you: Dan Wileman, that gap tailslide bigspin out, ridiculous.

Item of importance that you lost: Phone and wallet at the same time at that festival.

Time you feared for your life: Last time I was in Limerick just passing through, sketchy ass place!
