Skate Jawn has a Khaw Wangkaji and friends edit by Hans Klein, entirely filmed in New York — which is where the absolutely psychotic 360 flip into the escalator bank at World Trade from last week’s Top 10 originated from. The 5050 front biggie on the Brooklyn Bridge Park rail + the tre lip in Long Island City were both nuts as well. Lots to enjoy.
Free has a premiere of Mark Humienik and Grady Smith’s part in Tristan Mershon’s Singer Tower video, which effectively acts as a throwback VX Bronze crew section within the video + Skate Jawn has a premiere of Josh Narvaez’s Singer Tower part.
Zander Mitchell kickflips halfway down the bank at the Battery Park roof ledge-to-bank across from South Ferry, and skates the Courthouse Drop like a bank-to-ledge [?!] in his pro part for Jacuzzi Unlimited. The ender is some galaxy brained light-footedness.
“Even though you’re probably reading this or listening to this on your phone, try to put down your phone as much as possible, and appreciate the world around you, and the people around you, and that human interaction. I think the more we are aware of that, the better this world will get. Skateboarding fucking rules!” Really great advice from Mike Carroll, via his interview for Slam City Skates’ “First & Last” feature. We’ve been trying to hunt Mike down for a Five Favorite Parts for a minute now, so shout out to Slam for getting this — although in his defense, he did say he was in London the last time we tried to get on the horn.

Dumb Bunny is a Vancouver / Victoria, British Columbia scene video by Braeley Wong and Chance Swainson. Dylan Timmins’ closing part is fantastic.
Ginwoo on Quasi. Wait, no, Cooper Qua’s on Quasi.
Excited for Yardale’s next one. Have they done a Miami trip before? Or is that just too on-the-nose? 🌴 Quasi x Yardsale x Miami, pls let’s go.
“New York City! DID! YOU! KNOW!? That *one man* — paints ~every garbage can~ in Bryant Park?!” We love Joe Scordo [and Max Hull!], and he paints all the garbage cans in Bryant Park.
What metal fabricator lobbyist was able to convince the MTA that the metal spikes and paddles lead to a 60% decline in fare evasion?
