This year, the Christmas clip features Leo Gutman, Keith Denley, Jake Johnson, Brendan Granstrand, Billy Rohan, DJ Roctakon, Thando Beschta, Miles Marquez, Matthew Mooney, Kevin Tierney, Ty Lyons, Pryce Holmes, Charles Lamb, Benjamin Nazario, Danny Weiss (!), Todd Jordan, Taji Ameen, Ryan Hickey and Switch Michael Strobert Sr. Contributed footage by Brengar, Justin White and Jeremy Scott Cohan.

Unfortunatley, we were unable to top the almost nine-minute mark of last year’s clip, largely due to weather related reasons, i.e. the fact that it snowed in December for the first time in about five years (or maybe I’m exagerrating). We still managed to pull of one last emergency session last night in upper-twenty degrees. I think there are less frontside shove-its in this clip than there were in last year’s. Shame.

Have a happy and safe Christmas.

As much as I cannot believe I am actually saying this, the new Flipmode video is actually done (or close to it). It is premiering at KCDC on Sunday, December 21st at 3PM. I have been told to emphasize that it is not a party, even though I am sure plenty of people are going to be showing up drunk. Hopefully it is not an hour long like the last one and BD has a part, but I guess we’ll all find that out pretty soon.

Flyer here. (Alcoholic is apparently spelled with an ‘A’)

Update: Reliable sources have informed me that Kevin Tierney and BD have parts. Billy Lynch is currently in prison and will not be having a part.

Update 2: They made a promo

February in December

Global warming is a lie.

Handycam on the Road: Volume 1. A comprehensive display of what a few hundred miles south on I-95 and a lack of effort on behalf of a non-existent three-chip camera looks like. I’d imagine it is at least twenty-five degrees warmer down there right now.

Ted Barrow interviews Alex Corporan about the 80s, the 90s, and the Banks.

Who would have thought that some half-Irish/half-Puerto Rican degenerate trading you a Hennessy shirt from a Mobb Deep video for an unlimited supply of beer on Thursday nights would eventually result in tosilitis.

This video demonstrates more heart than anything you have ever tried on a skateboard. And it reminds me that more cars need to be incorporated in lines when you’re filming in SoHo nowadays. Ever since Hamilton Harris did a car line at Astor, the act has become something of a lost art, and its really a shame. Especially when BMX riders do it so well.

And now, the most important thing to ever be posted on the Quarter Snacks homepage…

A ROB CAMPBELL INTERVIEW

As much as I have had inquiries put into the prospect of interviewing Rob or uncovering some of his hidden footage from the past several years, I have constantly been told that, “He’s not feeling the internet.” I was not aware that print was still a viable method of exposure anymore, but as long as he holds that contention of the digital-age, this brief interview is the best thing we have.
