Ocean Howell’s Howard House Part
What is it with “lost” video parts coming into the public eye this week!?!
A whole decade after it was filmed, this full part from the 90’s H-Street and Birdhouse street pioneer is as rare a treat as you are likely to find in these days of media over saturation.
Filmed primarily in Barcelona in its early noughties heyday by Richard Hart, this is Ocean finding the kind of beautiful form that pushed him head and shoulders above his contemporaries in those early days of street skateboard exploration – the only shame of the whole situation is that we haven’t been able to enjoy this for the past 10 years.
