It is rare that an angry homeowner yields a clip that gets screen-recorded and shared among a symphony of unconnected group chats. The ones who make it into videos either grab your board and say the cops are on the way, or douse the spot and/or you with water.
But there is just something so fucking funny about a guy screaming “you have NOTHING, you’re skateboarding at 30!” while kicking you out of a drop-in grind in front of his building, particularly at a time when there’s a culture-wide discourse about skateboarding aging and the trickle-down effects of that writ large.
For one, 30 isn’t even old! Antonio just turned 30.
For another: willing to bet it all on the fact that this dude paused his video game and rolled out of bed to run outside and crash out at a 30-year-old skateboarder.
Nevertheless, we’ve probably given the topic too much air time, especially when a 50-year-old skateboarder’s kickflip and hairline look like this in 2026.
(Still gonna send this clip to the chat any time I can’t make it out to skate to remind them they have nothing.)
Enough about this guy, let’s talk about some geniuses. Many of whom are under 30.
Millions is the great, new New York video by Stephan Singh (@rotiwarrior on IG.) It is the sort of video built on roving through deep-borough zones for untapped cellar doors, handrails that the summer tourists will never know about, and reactivation of forgotten corners of well-worn spots — so sick seeing people grind down the Flushing six manny pad again, or just whipping a single trick over the chain at Monument (no look-out?!)
If you want a genuine 2026 portrait of New York skateboarding from people putting the work in, this video is the perfect place to look. Also a great reminder that the city’s too big, and life’s too short to keep getting stuck at the skatepark all day ;)
P.S. One of the best bits in skateboarding is when a city pre-knobs a new spot (or in this case, takes chunks out), but completely ignores the fact there’s a perfectly good spot still leftover beyond their efforts. In this case, a chessboard step-up ledge that appears in this video like eight times ❤️
