Contrary to what Rick Ross may insist, the iPhone probably isn’t well suited for “selling dope.” However, it’s great for second angles and quick clips when you’re sitting around lurking at skate spots, as many have learned. (It’s not ironic that a former law enforcement official encourages impressionable youths to perform illegal activities on a highly traceable piece of technology, but perhaps he’s just trying to make his colleagues’ jobs easier.)
If Universitat is Barcelona’s (vastly superior) version of Union, then MACBA is the city’s (vastly superior) version of Tompkins and 12th & A. People kind of just get stuck lurking there, and avoiding it is a badge you can proudly wear, just like “I haven’t been to Tompkins in weeks” is a controversial conversation piece for any New York skater. Further similarities exist in that it’s too dark to skate MACBA at night (doesn’t stop people from trying), and it is a premier location for “homie cam” clips. If Diamond Days clips were based in Barcelona, they’d undoubtedly have their 3:1 duration ratio of 12th & A to non-12th & A footage replaced with MACBA footage. As a result, here is an iPhone clip, largely composed of footage filmed while sitting bored at MACBA, and other joyful moments.
Features Ishod Wair, some lil’ homie (who also appears in a recent Clint Peterson Transworld clip), Tyler Tufty, Vladamir Kirilenko, [poached footage of] Omar Salazar, Andre Page, Ty Lyons, Doug Brown, Andy Henrie, Marcel Veldman, and E.J.
cool clip, but whatever happened to miles marquez? — he was my favorite member of the quartersnacks conglomerate
Dougie Brown aka Blue Eyes aka D-BLOCK aka Ya Moms favorite side piece is steady killing it! Whoo!
Coming soon, the iScale app with preset weights for eighths and eightballs. I haven’t been to Tompkins in a few months.
damn ty looking good out there. i bet he pulls more birds than mooney
Miles still skates regularly, he just convinced himself that he sucks and doesn’t try to film tricks anymore. Consult this quote of the week for further evidence: http://quartersnacks.com/2010/12/all-white-everything/
