Golden Hour is a great, 19-minute New York scene video by Perry Scardigno, featuring a ton of “where is that spot?!” clips — assuming you can even think about skate spots right now. (Jk, K Bridge is a go at least.) Also has a sick Ricki Twohill part at the end.

“My dog was the one that originally found my cancer four years ago — she kept trying hit me in the nuts while we were playing and hit me really fucking good.” Ian Browning’s great “Rules of Skateboarding” series has formally moved from Village Psychic to Skate Bylines, and the newest installment is with TJ Rogers about the rules of publicly sharing personal things with fans of your skateboarding.

“I kind of want to skate for a brand because it’s like, ‘Okay, she has good clips!'” Free has an interview with Stella Aiha on the occasion of the new part that she dropped with Eetu Lilja.

The Wharf Report III — Michael Babbitt’s Maine Scene Video, “A Way Out”

Daily News February 11th, 2026 · 12:05 pm

It feels like it has been an eerily quiet season for New York scene videos. You can blame the worst winter in a decade, but winter has typically been the perfect time to edit shit from the past year. This week, we’ve ran stuff from Chicago (statistically worse weather than us), Lisbon (where it’s been raining all winter), and today, Maine (look at a map.) I guess we gotta work more to afford to live in this fucking place or something like that.

ANYWHO, we at the QS office love a seasonal skate video franchise: think Jeff Cecere’s 2022-2024 December three-peat or that era when every summer came with a Bronze video. For three winters now, Michael Babbitt and his crew have been reporting on the happenings up in Portland, Maine in skate video form. Three videos in, it feels like Portland thrives on the sort of spots that pop up in that liminal period between construction projects and may not last more than a week, or the sorts of things that can only be skated while negotiating with someone already halfway into calling the cops. Between the trio of projects, it barely feels like they repeat spots. We asked Mr. Babbitt how such a small scene manages to cast such a wide net: “did you guys barely repeat spots through the past three videos?”

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

Daily News February 10th, 2026 · 10:25 am

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?
