We are hosting another cash for tricks jam at Blue Park next Tuesday, July 21 from 5 P.M. to sundown on a movable replica of the long-knobbed Graham and Grand Avenue bank-to-bank just down the street.
Same vibe as the Long Ledge Jam.
We start maybe three-feet-wide and keep going.
First person to wallride ten feet across gets a million dollars.

Greg Navarro and Jenkem’s video of profile of Ari Misurelli and Luca Mayer racked up over half-a-million views in less than a week. While it’s horrifying that they don’t have any friends their age who take skateboarding “seriously” — for context, that is about half the amount of views that the reigning S.O.T.Y’s part got in 7ish months. People wanna see the youth skate. Hopefully, that makes more of ’em skate, idk ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Everyone’s favorite skater, Gus Gordon, has a new part out for Pepper Griptape. Best front crook in the biz probably, right?
“Fuck, it’s a lot more than a fucking Instagram account.” Skate Jawn has a #longform photographer interview with the resident Homies Network documentarian, Mark Custer.
A classic “it’s not from all one video …but it’s mostly from one video” week. Always tough with the opus parts where it is more about the sum-of-its-parts sort of thing, but there was so much to process in that one clip for the #1 that it is the one went with.
Also notable when you have an eight-minute part of absolutely fucked handrail tricks, and there’s just a chill ledge line that Mr. Reyes likely filmed fuckin’ around that makes you think “whoa” because he executed it so perfectly.
(Filed before Julian Lopez’s great new Berlin scene video, yes.)
Have a good one ❤️

The prolifically huck-heavy Stroller crew out of Greece hit New York in their latest edit. Gap front blunt on the bike lane curb on Allen and Canal is a #lowimpact Leap of Faith.
“Who are your top 3 New Jerseyans all time?” “Dude this is so hard. Can I say Tony Soprano?” Abada interviewed Hardbody Ross for Skate Jawn. Spoiler: He didn’t say Tony Soprano.
“OPHELIA” is the latest nine-minute edit from Theories brand. Ryan Alvero is tech as hell in the first part and Conor Noll closes it out. Shout out to his cat.
Obviously there are a lot of YouTube stragglers who are mistaken in thinking that QS Top 10 = “hardest tricks of the week,” but if you’re reading this on the website, you knew that there was only one possible thing that would be #1 on Top 10 this week. Place it in any decade, and it is still #1. Actually, it is the hardest trick of the week ;) that crowd can breathe easy.
[Kayo It’s Official is twenty years old, for context on that Wade line.]
(This was filed before the new Theories vid, the new Polar, etc. Yes.)
Have a good one, only another two days of the heat, but hey, it’s not winter.
