Live From Lisbon — Leonardo Beazotto’s “Call Me When U Get Home” Video

We have written before about the assortment of textures that come together to make Lisbon’s skate spots. In just the opening minutes of Lucas Marques’ part in Call Me When U Get Home, you encounter an asphalt lump into a sliver of diamond-plate, a brick volcano outlined by cobblestones, plus a line that starts with grinding on glass and ends with a wallride on marble. Next, you’ll notice they don’t even bother hitting the more perfect famous spots recognizable to outsiders. Feels like they’re leaving those to us tourists. Where’s the …friction?

Chicago Report — Uprise Skateshop’s “Where You Been” Video by Harry Reynolds

It was almost a year ago to the day (right down to the Knicks-Celtics weekend match-up …which luckily turned out better this year), that upon Chicago’s Uprise Skateshop releasing a two-punch of parts from Will Morton and Vince Guzaldo, we remarked how nice a new Uprise full-length would be.

Well, it turns out they’ve been working on one. For the past three years. Just before the weekend (late pass, sorry), Harry Reynolds dropped Where You Been, a 26-minute Chicago scene video from the Uprise family.

Steep Bank To Sprinter Van At The Bottom

We love all civic-minded skate media: Bubble has a 33-minute documentary about the legacy of Sants Plaza in Barcelona, which was demolished a year ago.

Coda dropped a new all-NYC edit over on Skate Jawn. Shanahan rolled in on it to start a line (see #21), but that’s the first time someone treated those amphitheaters at the Citi Field benches as a bank, right? Crazy.

“I just don’t even know no more. For me, if it doesn’t feel like the hardest thing I’ve ever done in my life, it doesn’t feel like I got a clip.” Really enjoyed Naquan’s 10-minute raw reel of Nikolai clips from his Venture part. Lol’d @ him being shocked at the board having the audacity to go into the water on that nosegrind. Occupational hazard for a Floridian skater, though.

#QSTOP10 — February 6, 2026

As you have likely noticed, it has been a sleepy past two weeks in the hallways of QS HQ. And if you look outside, it is not tough to understand why. The 2OT Knicks in February we are not. Should get back into the normal cadence of things next week, though ;)

In the meantime: Tom Snape, didn’t know Jamie Foy had a flick like that (which almost seems unfair given the other portfolio of skateboard talents under his feet), and a shoo-in for an early Noseslide of the Year frontrunner (if you saw it, you know.) Have a good weekend.

Yesterday’s Legs Are Not Today’s Legs

This. Is. Cinema 🎬

Jenkem profiled the Utica D.I.Y. in Bed-Stuy and the people who make it possible. Anytime there’s footage of dudes buying concrete, I think about the time a Home Depot employee told the Shorty’s Newark dudes that they “look like Kings of Leon” while concrete shopping.

Added the Federal Plaza section in Polymer’s Lighter Than Air video — filmed entirely at the …Federal Plaza in Akron, Ohio — to the One-Spot Part Map 📍 Didn’t know Akron had it like that.

Naquan Rollings’ “$$$nine” edit is an all-L.A. outing with a mini Thomas Dritsas part + a heelflip surprise saved for the end.
