Nah Yeah is an all Long Island video by Duran Murphy, which is a twenty-minute deep dive into a scene that we too often only associate with the most obvious names + an annual trip to the Rosyln Banks/pool. It’s also crazy how much a dude switching between éS, Etnies, Vans & Osiris in a single part stands out in 2019. Also, shout out to Mook.

Don’t have a ton of info on this video, but noticed a good deal of S.F. + N.Y. spots. The cruise through the crowd and ollie into the handicap ramp line was really sick too: “lemons,” by Kyle Remondino. Spotted via Skate Jawn.

QS Sports Desk Play of the Week: Jokic plays basketball like the heavy-set dude who smokes weed at the spot for 95% of the day, then will get up, do a 20-foot-long switch back tail bigspin going 2 mph, and then sit down again.
Quote of the Week: “Hot 97 is actually getting me mad psyched to skate.” — Emilio Cuilan
