#QSTOP10 — July 3, 2026

Daily News July 3rd, 2026 · 12:00 am

Obviously there are a lot of YouTube stragglers who are mistaken in thinking that QS Top 10 = “hardest tricks of the week,” but if you’re reading this on the website, you knew that there was only one possible thing that would be #1 on Top 10 this week. Place it in any decade, and it is still #1. Actually, it is the hardest trick of the week ;) that crowd can breathe easy.

Have a good one, only another two days of the heat, but hey, it’s not winter.

Finals between Frankie Spears and Mark Suciu. The winner takes home a fat stack of 20s. Everyone else has to go home and train for next year.

7 Years In The Making — Palace’s “Detroit 313” Video

Daily News June 29th, 2026 · 12:25 am · 5

The “return” of the full-length skate video is something that has been forecasted on such a loop that we can safely conclude it was never at risk of extinction in the first place.

However, in this past month, two of the year’s marquee releases both clocked in at a few minutes shy of an hour.

Palace’s Detroit 313 video is notable because it took seven years to film — an eternity in the social media era, and an echo back to skate videos’ blockbuster “golden age” when two or three full-lengths a decade was a reasonable cadence for a brand.

At a time when everything falls under the label of “content,” it is easy to fall into a routine. We are all guilty of it.

“The thing is, if H&M knocks on the door tomorrow, buys the building out, we can’t do shit. We can’t win. But what we can do while we last is prove that we are trying.” WNYC profiled Kyota Umeki, and his family’s long-running St. Mark’s businesses, Search & Destroy and Kenka, which he runs with his brother. Cannot wait for Kyota to be mayor. [Related: Our interview with him from 2023, conducted on the eve of him opening the Star Shop before being old enough to buy a beer.] In hindsight, I feel bad for having a panic attack during Q2 of Game 4 while watching it at Kenka with everyone — because what better place to watch the greatest Finals comeback in history — but sometimes you need to stand two feet from your TV alone completely dehydrated, and hope the plane isn’t crashing 🤗 Thank you O.G.

“EZ FUN” is the new video blog entry from Kader Sylla and Tristan Warren. Starts out with some New York stuff up through the Violet premiere some weeks back. That handrail on East Houston is bound to see a good number of visitors this summer ;)
