Someone was like, “Do y’all still have that hat?!” It’s on the webstore, buddy ✅
Pero Šimić has a sick new two-minute part for Obey by Naquan Rollings, which consists of all New York clips. That ollie onto the board-width ledge was some Lennie Kirk shit, and the pillar rides at the Banks are a new dimension.
“The sheer audacity of plunking a switch backside noseblunt down the Brooklyn Banks nine-stair rail in the middle of an edit has previously been discussed.” Boil the Ocean goes through the potential 2025 S.O.T.Y. contenders. When’s the last time a vert skater was the frontrunner?
Sexhippies new video, which is a dive into the scene in western Massachusetts and a bit beyond, just went live. “Earth Mafia” has a fire opening part from Eddie Vargas Jr., appearances from Andrew Wilson, Cooper Qua, Zac Gavin and many other familiar faces.
Brian Reid and Spencer Hamilton came to New York for some classic plaza skating to push the new NB# x Grand Collection collaboration. Brian’s flip back 5050 behind Police Plaza flew by a lil’ bit too fast …that was nuts.
Lots of fire Marcello clips in this Carl Aikens orchestrated trip to Marsielle with Free.
Last week was huge for skaters deciding “fuck it, let’s just edit the video to one of the greatest songs humans ever recorded” (feel like we talked about this when someone threw “Water Ain’t Got No Enemy” over their skate trip edit) — 1) A dive into seaside crust, one of our favorite sub-genres of skating, in “H3ADZ” by Harrison Woolgar, edited to Alice. 2) Village PM’s new promo over E.B.T.G. and Todd. Both videos are incredible, but you’re always stacking the deck against yourself cutting a web clip alongside peaks of mankind’s creative ingenuity ;) Obvs kidding, because we did it for a goddamn Insta edit before.
Skate Bylines has a dive into those with “a slight print fetishism” in skate media.
Dashawn Jordan is the latest guest on The Bunt.
The city plans to re-do that knot of an intersection at the bottom of Bowery where the Chinatown Banks are. This would include a renovation of the plaza, the absence of which will inevitably send New York’s spot-fixer-upper community into a deep, dark depression.
QS Sports Desk Play of the Week 🏀 — It’s amazing the dominant narrative last season was crying about what the NBA will look like after Lebron/Steph/KD, but opening night was effectively Wemby going, “what the fuck are you all on about?” Talent and spectacle are not the issue. The gambling shit though …😬 😬 😬
Quote of the Week 🗣 “A foam roller is a thousand times better than a TheraGun.” — Hjalte Halberg
I would love it if you all made some fitted caps for the large domed community. Need that blue journalist cap in an 8.
