Naquan Rollings uploaded Devin Flynn’s Borough Hall back 5050 heard around the world in 16:9 to his YouTube. You know something surpasses “you have to see the spot in person” when even people who have never been there’s reaction to a backside 5050 is “holy fucking shit.” That being said, it is bound to become one of those “stop, look and discuss”-spots for years to come.

Videographer Neema Joorabchi moved to Los Angeles, and dropped an edit of footage leftover from the end of his New York days entitled “sucks huh.” A mini part’s worth of Jasper Stieve clips in there, with a handful of Fort Greene bangers.

#QSTOP10 — July 24, 2026

While there is a fuzzy line between what gets saved v.s. what hits the timeline in 2026 — a Borough Hall rail that pretty much nobody ever even considered a potential skate spot definitely wasn’t in the cards for some shit that just gets tossed to IG. Apparently it had something to do with former sponsor politics, but wow. That clip would comfortably fit in the bangers section of a part from the Delfinos, O’Gradys and Berles of the world.

Otherwise, two H.O.F. noseslides (Max had a good one in the Limo clip too), a cute lil’ twist on a Foy-ian signature, and naturally, a switch backside flip while grilling the car that you cut in front of.

Have a good one.

QS x Adidas Wall Jam @ Blue Park Recap

There was a tornado warning in the city yesterday. Unfortunately for us, we had a Wall Jam to throw. Nearing the 11th hour, the morning rain had dried up, so we figured, you know what? Fuck it, we wall.

We had a solid hour with a handful of soldiers who were down to defy the forecast. Quim Cardona showed up! Chachi was there! Holy Japhey Dow bigspin! Then, it started to pour, so of course we had to turn it into a spelling bee to get rid of the cash and product somehow.

What Happened to the Tompkins Vert Wall? — A Brief Franco Interview

📝 Intro + Interview by Greg Navarro
📷 Photography by Orlando Asson & Franco

Previously on the #trendwatch, we cataloged the Tompkins Tetris phenomenon that has been taking hold of the T.F. this year. Born from this cultural movement was a vert wall on the west side of the Tompkins fence, which many of you likely know as the Tompkins Hell Ride™.

Just when the excitement of the new obstacle was at its peak following the Jenkem Block Party two weekends back, the vert wall vanished overnight. We had no other choice than to call Franco, the vert wall’s principal architect, to better understand where and when this Hell Ride™ would continue.
