Avenue A has been repaved ❤️

Our friends at Dancer have a new 10-minute video out entitled “HPX8000,” which features Hjalte, J-Skrodds, and the new generation out of Copenhagen. Filmed entirely across Denmark, 95% on spots that the skate tourists don’t skate.

“If it fails, let’s fail really bad. Let’s just have fun with it in the meantime.” High Snobiety an a profile on Ayman and Osama about the new Carpet store that they just opened up in Baltimore.

Jeremy Murray, Justin Hearn and Mathias Rotstein are embarking on a new board brand called Albm, and ran an intro edit on Free last week with a good batch of New York clips.

Added Acidboys’ “UQZ Plaza” video, which is filmed entirely at Plaza Urquiza in Tucumán, Argentina, to the Quartersnacks One-Spot Part Map 📍

“The Past Participle has quietly become a living archive of early skateboarding when it was still considered counterculture. Like some sort of found-photo fever dream, it shines a light on the regular folks skating purely for the hell of it, despite it being alienating.” Jenkem has a feature on a project archiving intentionally un-iconic photos from skateboarding’s formative years.

TJ Rogers is the latest guest on The Bunt + photographer Ari Marcopoulos is the latest guest on the Living Proof podcast.

If you have travel plans coming up, NY Mag interviewed a LaGuardia TSA agent about how to fly while airports are fucked.

“Before, there were stock images taken by some human, somewhere, of a real BLT; now, we have artificially intelligent chicken wings that end in pacifier rings, stacks of uncanny Ghibli-esque pancakes, and hallucinatory beers.” Even bodega signage is being overrun by AI.

Spot Updates 📍 — R.I.P. Chaun City Banks.

QS Sports Desk Play of the Week 🏀 — Stephon Castle’s windmill dunk v.s. the Grizzlies …although the video enters a different level of hilarity once the score pops up on the screen with his facial expression around the 50-second mark.

Quote of the Week 🗣
Salomon Cardenas: “It’s the sickest spot: a perfect bump-to-bar with a perfect manny pad right after it.”
Conor Prunty: “Great. Two shits I’m not trying to skate.”

Everyone wants to point to a song from new Max and be like “this sounds like old Max,” but months later, this continues to sound like old Max.
