While we have been fans of Sk8mafia since forever — as evidenced by a decade-plus of Quote of the Week installments — QS is likely not the first news source you would go to for an interview with one of San Diego’s brightest sons. But we have been Tyler Surrey fans for a long time, admiring the dude’s ability to drop video parts that feel wholly complete and thought-through, without a moment ever feeling it’s its veering into a footage dump.

Tyler’s Indy part from late last year was a QS office favorite, so we got him on the line to discuss life as a working skateboarder, evolving your eye with age, and what’s good with living in Barcelona circa 2024, er …2025.

Pocket set out to capture the endless good vibes that emenate when you’re kicking it with Karim Callender for their “Followed” series. Yeah, they succeeded ❤️

“I don’t want to be the first skateboarder to skate the ramp and the first skateboarder to break the museum.” Alexis Sablone spoke to the New Yorker about being the first person to ever skate inside the Guggenheim for her Converse pro model commercial.

The Lookback Library got ahold of Gino Iannucci to talk about his two magazine covers — both switch flips and both from 2004. (How the hell has Gino only had two covers? Especially coming from the era where there were four or five magazines?!)

Roman Lisivka’s ‘Métronome Noir’ Part

Any skateboard scholar knows that EuroTech™ is no longer a movement bound by geography or era. Nearly twenty years since the release of its definitive piece of scripture and having gone global in the time since, EuroTech™ remains one of those things that you just know it when you see it — the confidence, the power, the grace with which one maneuvers a skateboard. Tricks are perfect, but not at the expense of having personality.

Roman Lisivka has been on the front lines of evolving this precise tradition of skateboarding for some time now (note the precision on a certain fakie varial flip out early on …sheesh.) Us in the States first caught wind of Roman’s skating via his 10/10 line choreography at Prague’s Stalin Plaza, but he has been posted out in Barcelona for the past year. “Métronome Noir” is his latest part for a new pursuit, and it carries a dedication to black tees not seen since the nascency of Gucci Mane’s career ;)
