The 2016 Fix Up Comp took place between the 15th and 18th Sept. Teams of 4 skaters battled it out over 3 days to produce the most ridiculous 2minute skate edit possible. All films are then premiered on the Sunday night where teams vote for a winner.
The competition was epic with three days of sunshine and non stop hammers across the city. Everyone made it to the finish line with a completed film.
Thank you to all the teams who entered. It’s nothing without your effort. Big up everyone who came out to the Premier nigh. Massive thank you to Tom Sparey, Callum Painter and Harry McCulloch for taking loads of wicked photos throughout the weekend. You can see them all in a gallery below the films. Finally a massive shout out to all the sponsors for hooking up some rad prizes.
DC, Bones, Thrasher, Primative, Grizzly, Diamond, Rock Solid, Fifty Fifty, Campus skateparks, Lifetime laces.
Here is this years winning film. THE SNAKE! Congratulations guys, you smashed it.

WELCOME TO DIY BRISTOL. I HOPE YOU ENJOY THE SITE.
BIG UP CANVAS SKATEPARK DESIGN FOR BUILDING THIS RAD BLOCK DOWN THE BEAR PIT.
HERE IS PART ONE OF “THIS IS WASTELAND” A STORY OF A SPOT.
STAY TUNED FOR DIY BASED EDITS FOCUSED ON DIFFERENT SPOTS AROUND BRISTOL.
FOR ANYONE WHO DIDN’T MAKE IT OUT TO THE POLAR DAVESIDE SESH, HERE ARE SOME OF THE HIGHLIGHTS ON THE RAW DAWG TRANNY. IT’S A BEAST… NOW GO SHRED.
NOTHING BETTER THAN HITTING UP THE M32 DIY SPOT AT GOLDEN HOUR. HERE’S A LITTLE EDIT WITH ANIMATION COLLABORATION FROM www.R3media.com FEATURING A COUPLE OF THE LOCALS. ENJOY AND GO SHRED.
THE DIY GODS WERE KIND TO US WHEN THEY DELIVERED THIS LITTLE BEAUTY JUST OVER THE ROAD FROM OUR OFFICE. SINCE WE SHOT THIS LITTLE NUMBER WITH HUGH HARDIE THE SITE HAS BEEN CLEARED OF ALL THE RUBBLE SO WE STARTED BUILDING… STAY TUNED FOR ADDITIONAL DIY EDITS COMING SOON. NOW GO SHRED!
CAMPUS SKATE PARKS ARE PURE DIY. THEY STARTED FROM NOTHING AND THROUGH HARD WORK AND DETERMINATION ANDRE AND TIM NOW RUN TWO FULLY FUNCTIONING INDOOR PARKS IN BRISTOL.
HERE IS THE FINAL SESSION IN THE OLD POOL BEFORE IT WAS REINCARNATED AS A SKATEPARK:
ONCE THE PARK WAS BUILT CAMPUS POOL OPENS IT’S DOORS TO THE PUBLIC ON THE 26th JULY 2015. CHECK OUT THE PRE OPENING EDIT. BIG THINGS FOR THE BRISTOL SKATE SCENE. RESPECT LADS.
THE LOCK IN SESSIONS GIVE CREWS A CHANCE TO SKATE THE PARK AFTER HOURS. WE WERE LUCKY ENOUGH TO FILM THE DC UK LOCK EDIT. IT WENT OFF!!
NOTHING BETTER THAN SINKING A COUPLE OF CANS AND GOING FOR A NIGHT SKATE. MANY MORE IN THE PIPELINE IM SURE.
LATE NIGHT LONDON SESH WITH OLD FRIEND’S AND NEW. FUN TIMES.
WE HAD A RARE OPPORTUNITY TO SKATE THE PUMP CAGE IN MANCHESTER AFTER HOURS. COULDN’T REALLY SAY NO….
COLD, DARK, STREET SKATING WITH HUGH HARDIE. SUPER STOKED ON THIS.
HERE’S A LIST OF SOME OF THE DIY SPOTS IN BRISTOL. THERE ARE OTHER’S BUT YOU JUST HAVE TO GO HUNT THEM OUT.
M32.
PRETTY MUCH A FULL SCALE SKATE PARK WITH NEW STUFF BEING BUILT ON THE REGS.
IT’S UNDER THE MOTORWAY NEXT TO IKEA.
DAVESIDE
NICE CILLED PATCH WITH BLOCKS AND TRANSITIONS. PERFECT FOR A SUNNY EVENING SESH.
BIT OF A CHALLENGE TO FIND BUT IF YOU LOCATE THE PATH IN THE MIDDLE OF THIS MAP YOUR THERE. BEST BET IS ASK SOME SKATERS.
WASTELAND
COUPLE OF SKETCHY GAPS AND A LEDGE TRAINING FACILITY.
IN A MASSIVE WASTELAND BEHIND THE M32 PETROL STATION.
CRUMBERLAND AKA CUMBERLAND HQ
SUPER RAW SURFACE BUT MEGA FUN. RIDE BIG WHEELS AND BE PREPARED TO GET GRAVEL IN YOUR PALMS.
THIS PLACE IS UNDER THE HOTWELL’S OVERPASS OPPOSITE THE ROSE OF DENMARK PUB.
