Forget crews and collectives, Jeremy Bentham is a full-blown dysfunctional skate family from South Woodham Ferrers, with all the chaos, comedy, bitching, fighting and mad love you’d expect from skaters who’ve rolled together for 25 years. Fathers, sons, brothers, brothers-in-law, best men, next-door neighbours and godfathers – we tried to do a combined team age once, but ran out of numbers. Quite why a such a backwater for culture and cool as SWF should have a thriving slate scene is beyond us. We just embrace it, and hope you do too and watch our edit. Oh, and why ‘Jeremy Bentham’? Google it, you’ll like the man (just avoid the pub)…
