Wasser Pro, K.T. Married

Marcello Campanello by Matt Price 📷, jacked from the 18 East Copenhagen zine. Might be, idk, the “summeriest” skate photo in recent memory, and that felt appropriate as this one closes out.

Tuesday because Labor Day, etc. ☀️

Connor Champion and Josh Velez share a quick lil’ Barcelona part for Grand Collection.

“All I cared about was money…and then I jumped on a skateboard. And I was like, dude, I forgot how much fun this was. What the fuck was I doing? All that fucking money did nothing for me.” V Magazine is probably the least likely place you’d expect to find a profile of Eugene Kang and Terminal Skateshop, the shop he runs in Washington Heights out of his sixth floor walk-up apartment building, but it’s beautiful.

#QSTOP10 — September 4, 2026

We held a staff meeting to see if it was reasonable to give the same guy who backside flipped an insane gap in April a second #1 for backside big spinning the same gap five months later. The meeting lasted ten seconds after a chorus of yes.

There have been too many enders and covers at #1 lately, but in case you haven’t caught them yet, check Koston Eaton’s part in Cage Cocalis’ THIEF OF JOY (the skaters’ names in that video are incredible) + the closer in Augusto Akio’s “Ambiguous” part. All reasonable top billing.

And yes, Thursday’s releases were deferred until next week.

Have a good one ❤️ QS will return on Tuesday, September 8 after the Labor Day holiday.

Will See Hard Mix 2026

We have always enjoyed Will See‘s appearances in various homie edits that have popped up in the past few years, and today, we’re happy to present a full Will See part by Kyle G., who you may most recently remember as the architect behind “for the coach.” The part is full of cutty New York lumps, Loreth-ian bank spots, and a switch frontside plot twist at the end ;)

Filmed and edited by Kyle G. Sick painting at the end by Ethan Mckeague.

Farewell Stuyvesant High Rail, On Its Way To Ride-On Heaven

Maybe this is an overly New York-centric opinion — or maybe it doesn’t matter because the following statement is so fucking stupid — but it is possible that the ride-on rail behind Stuyvesant High School in Battery Park is the most consequential ride-on rail in history.

In paying homage to Alien Workshop’s heritage by switch 5050ing the rail that Lennie Kink had grinded across in the nineties (Jerry Fisher grinded it in EE3, too), Jake Johnson ignited a road to acceptance for ride-on grinds in pro skateboarding videography. They had existed before as a mere novelty, but Jake’s Mind Field part rustled awake the world’s third eye towards their possibilities, just as it had for other much-discussed facets of post-Jake-in-MindField skateboarding. Ride-on grinds have been everywhere in the ~15-plus years since.

And now, it’s gone. Or at least slated to be any day now as part of a wave of climate resiliency renovations alongside many waterfront parks in Lower Manhattan. Those token ride-on grind deniers in the comments of any modern video can rejoice: their original enemy has been vanquished. But a million clones have, and will continue to follow in its wake.

Spoiler Alert — The 2026 Bunt Jam Presented By Vans

“Who are you going for?”

Perhaps a silly question to ask at the fourth edition of a three-on-three basketball tournament between skateboarders, but sports are more interesting when there are emotions involved.

In past Bunt Jams, we had a rooting interest. We went for the scrappy upstart Andrew team in 2023, and cheered for their revamped roster to unseat the two-time defending champion Bunt team in 2024, which they did.

But since June 13th, 2026, when the Knicks ended their 53-year title drought, it has been tough to have any emotions tied to sports whatsoever. The weight has been lifted, and we learned that relief is the purest form of bliss. I keep reminding people: the Knicks can miss the playoffs next year, and I will not care. It is absolute nirvana. With that in mind, it was tougher to weave emotions into the 2026 Bunt Jam, so what follows is absolute objectivity ;)
