There are a lot of banger recaps from Glory Challenge, but Naquan made the best one of all-around vibes.
Naquan also made a sick mini Amir Denis part. Smith at Cadman was lovely.
The summertime Tompkins edits have started to come in as the high-season winds down: 1) “$$$seven” by [yes, third link in a row] Naquan Rollings, which includes a triumphant return-to-NY back tail by Coles Bailey on the most inventive T.F. obstacle of the New Asphalt Era. 2) Japanese homies Joetaro Saito + Aoto Yoroi doing some of the flowiest lines all throughout the park by Shaquille Waite.

“It’s not, ‘I don’t know man, I was just skating.’ That answer drives me nuts.” Our correspondent Farran Golding recently launched what he dubs as the skate-version of Longform.org: Skate Bylines. It is a new platform that aggregates and features works of skateboard journalism, rather than focusing 98% on video, like many of us do. Skate Bylines also creates unique pieces of its own, with the first feature being an interview with Chops from Chromeball about his interview process with history’s most legendary skaters. Also, R.I.P. Longform, but long live Longreads. Haven’t gotten on a flight without loading up the reading list with Longreads links in 10+ years. 🫡
