#QSTOP10 — March 13, 2026

Didn’t want to go full nuts with the Element video, but yeah, quite a bit from the Element video. The physics on the 2nd slot still makes zero sense (and that’s a shoo-in for a #1 in any other week), and a switch back nosegrind on a rail feels like a seemingly elusive handrail trick, no?

It’s dope how the homie peeing in the corner knew Westgate was gonna land it that try because otherwise …there’d just be a pee stream in the landing.

A lot of stuff dropped on Thursday. This didn’t include stuff from Thursday. Yet!

Have a good one :)

A Skater Gives A TED Talk — Shoulder To Shoulder With John Gardner

Daily News March 10th, 2026 · 2:39 pm · 1

As some of you may know, a few years back, our good friend John Gardner quit Creature, DC and all his sponsors to focus his time on studying social work and working in mental health outreach. Late last year, he gave a TED talk as a part of their TEDxUnity Park series, and it just went online.

At Benihana’s Asking Where The Rice Went

The city is likely proceeding with building the skatepark in Mount Prospect Park after a long battle (there is one final meeting left on April 9), but at a reduced scale, “from 44,000 square feet to 19,500 square feet” — as revealed at the latest town hall. Looks like a transition-heavy design with some street on the side. Can we start holding hearings about getting a Born Plaza in this city before we’re all dead?

“Columbus Circle?” “No!!!” Feel much better about the future of street skateboarding in this city after watching Luca Mayer’s “$100 Chill” episode: they play S.K.A.T.E. inside subway stations, bumrush spots inside Wall Street offices, and then he spends most of his hundo on buying Bar Pitti for the gang. (QS is anti-Bar Pitti, but for reasons unrelated to Luca’s generous gesture.)

Not a busy week for new videos, with a New Balance tour vid serving as the marquee release from the past seven days.

Shout out to Mr. Heilman for unequivocally doing the sickest thing that’s ever been done on the yellow rail. Hyped that thing is still rocking at T.F.

Gotta love a trick where everyone in the BGPs’ jaw drops.

Two weeks ago we had Akon enter the fold of 2026 #musicsupervision, this week it’s …Memphis Bleek. (Actually Googled what he’s been up to, and unshockingly he’s a podcaster, but also looks like he barely aged since he made that song 30 years ago. Salute, sir.)

Rainy Day Viewing — “Pissing In The Ocean” by Brendan Gilliam

Daily News March 3rd, 2026 · 11:53 am

We have shared some of Brendan Gilliam‘s moody autumnal edits in years back, but Pissing In The Ocean is the first full-length from his crew. Elisa Martini joins Gilliam video fixtures Nick Lane and Jacob Campbell for a video that bounces between a nebula of Ridgewood/Bushwick/Queens, industrial New Jersey, and a crew trip to Barcelona. Friends pull up along the way, and in the theater of the mind, it’s nice to think that some of these dudes just texted Gilliam on a Friday night, being like, “Yo meet me at this industrial park in New Jersey tomorrow at noon and I’ll try to film as many tricks as I can before I gotta go into work later.”
