Spring QS goods arriving at shops worldwide now. On our webstore soon ❤️
A roll-through of the restored Big Banks section of the Brooklyn Banks.
Blaine Williams’ new video is called Normal and it rips. All New York, with a wide net of spots and personalities. Jermaine Whittaker’s closing part is crazy (that opening trick!), and honestly, that one dude doing a half cab crook on the middle bench on Marcy [as opposed to the end… like everyone else] to start a line is one of the most impressive things in the video.
Kader shared a vlog of him in New York, Portland, and Philly by Tristan Warren, which includes some B.T.S. warm-ups. The tweak on those switch ollies over the Soho barrier is insane.
The Good Stuff is a 17-minute Long Island scene video by Dylan Tomasino. Long Island is obviously not world famous for its plethora of skate spots, so it’s always fun watching videos that make the most of what’s out there.
…annnnnndddd FLORIDAMAXX is a St. Petersburg scene video by Jake Fuscardo showcasing the new generation out of Florida. Between these dudes, Duplex and the growed-up Yambros, there’s a lot of exciting shit coming out of Florida in recent years.
“Your parking lot sucks, Donut World.” Lurker Lou wears the Village Psychic NB#’s to do a “$100 Chill” for Skate Jawn on Staten Island. Laughed out loud when he bought the Wu-Tang CD despite his own warning at the start of the vid.
Listicles are back, baby! Jenkem ranked the top ten shop videos of all time. #1 is no surprise.
“A Brief History of Skating Tiny Shit,” via Boil the Ocean.
“Obviously, there isn’t available data to back this up, but I think it’s safe to say that the highest concentration of RDS-branded gear you’ll find today is in work camps up in the Alberta oil patch.” Simple Magic reports on seeing Osiris D3s in the wild.
Have you seen the new subway map yet?
Loosies Corner 🚬 — 2.5 minutes from Zander Mitchell.
QS Sports Desk Play of the Week 🏀 — Edwards got a lot of flack for a deflated start this season, but this is absolutely insane. Stoked for the playoffs.
Quote of the Week 🗣
[Peter Sidlauskas & Karim Callender Are Talking Across the Room @ A Loud Party]
Inquisitive Gentleman: “What do you think Peter and Karim are talking about?”
E.J: “Queens.”
Did a standalone upload of Connor’s part from Ricky Kovach’s North Carolina scene video, Former Glory, which is certainly worth your time for a full watch, especially if you have fond memories of old Transworld videos.
