‘iPhone Mixtape’ by The Star Team

Daily News June 28th, 2022 · 12:52 pm · 2

When’s the last time you saw a crispy pair of I-Paths in a new skate video?

‘iPhone Mixtape’ is Kyota Umeki and the Star Team’s follow-up to last winter’s “iPod video” (another piece of 2000s technology somehow being outlived at large by the VX1000.) It is a kaleidoscopic bro cam video of the first half of 2022 via the Homies Network dudes and their extended family as they kick around every possible corner of lower Manhattan — with Tompkins and the recently re-instated Green Man statue as the anchor-points.

Breeze From the East

Daily News June 27th, 2022 · 12:00 am · 2

Our webstore is now chirping with summer QS goods. Thanks for your support, as always ❤️ Available in U.S. QS accounts now. Arriving internationally now 🌏 Photo via Prov Tokyo.

This video rules: “Nice On” by Par Skateboards out of New Jersey. Perhaps the first skate video to be cross-edited with golf footage, so if golf hits the #trendwatch, you know where the nascency was. Otherwise, an all-around inspirational watch on the levels of fun you could squeeze out of hanging out in a industrial park with your friends.

“What happens when Kim Kardashian posts a picture wearing one of your hats?” Village Psychic spoke to Jerry Hsu about the ins-and-outs of starting a brand in the era where everyone has a brand + about the 1993 Foundation team, naturally.

#QSTOP10 — June 24, 2022

Daily News June 24th, 2022 · 12:00 am · 5

Yes, Antonio switch bigspin heel’d and did a bunch of other shit down the double-set at an L.E.S contest years ago (can’t find the clip right now) so this is nothing new for him, but the amount of dropped mouths in the screengrab above really says it all. The redistribution of wealth at the end is also #lol.

Otherwise, heavy on the clips from James Cruickshank’s SENSIBLES, the Paris scene video that dropped yesterday, which for whatever reason has the highest volume of angry pedestrians of any skate video in recent memory. That one is probably #1 on the official QS ballot for the readers poll at this halfway mark of the year.

Majorca For Nothing in Print

Daily News June 23rd, 2022 · 11:29 am

Travel writing around here has been sparse since the pandemic, but our friends at Free Skate Mag posted up the full trip article + Alex Pires’ photos from our Majorca excursion on their website. (It appeared in the most recent print issue.)

This one was special because it was the first time many of us had traveled outside the U.S. since the before time, and we were blessed with the fact that it didn’t rain the entire trip, nobody got injured, we barely got kicked out of any spots, and the craziest trick of the entire trip (Nick’s 5050 on the blue wave spot, which we actually did keep getting kicked out of) was at the last stop of the last day.

Read the full thing on Free and discover if San Miguel is truly stinkin’, or continue on for the iPhone bonus beats.
