Time For The Real Sports

There comes a time in every skate tank’s life where it ceases to merely get you TO the spot, and it …becomes the spot. The rubicon has been crossed.

Dime x Quartersnacks available now ⬅️

“Chris Joslin never did no shit like this.” Jamal Smith is back in front of the camera, mic’d up at the skatepark …in the snow. Can’t wait for episode two.

“Return of the Genius” is a new eight-minute edit by Carlo Campos of the Genius crew. It is a beautiful inferno of absolutely insane manny combos, all filmed in New York. Anyone confused by the madness within should find solace in the ancient proverb: the chaos of the youth’s manual tricks is reflective of the world they have inherited from their elders. (Should’ve been it’s own post, but last week was a hectic backend one at the office 😵‍💫)

Alexis Lacroix having an allotment of ohhhhh yeaaaaahhhh’s in Dime videos is very funny.

Naquan Rollings’ “$$$six” video is a slice of life montage into what it is like to spend hours on end at the refurbished Tompkins Square Park, circa 2024. Could basically be VR. That backflip guy has to go back and get that. #tfreport.

“I don’t make something unless I really like it and think it’s fire and cool and I want to wear it — or I think it’ll sell. Usually the shit that I think is the best and all my friends think is the coolest doesn’t do well. Then the shit that I’m like, ‘Whatever, this is bullshit’ — it sells out.” A tale as old as time. Village Psychic interviewed Myles Underwood, the mind behind Fuck This Industry.

Theories shared Josh Feist’s part from Traffic’s It’s Completely Fine video. Heavy on the Philly clips, lots of insanely crustaceous spots, and those tricks from the black marble rock onto the cement ledge are wild.

Thanks to everyone who picked up a pair of the QS x Vans MC 96 shoes ❤️ Still got 8.5’s in the green pair, a bit more of a size run in the blue ones.

After shelving the plan indefinitely after Tompkins was repaved, the Parks Department announced that it intends to paint the surface as an effort to preserve the asphalt longer. Work is slated to begin this week, but you know how that goes… #tfreport

“As one nerd pointed out, an Olympic-level skater like Yuto films a banger and people clap, because that trick is hard and Yuto did it perfectly. Antonio films a trick and people laugh, because it is so fucking insane that he did that that it may as well be a joke.” Monster Children celebrated Antonio Durao ~~week~~ month by interviewing the man himself.

“I get stoked if I hear someone say ‘Oh shit, I didn’t know he could skate normally.'” Jenkem interviewed another mastermind of third-eye-open skateboarding, Montreal’s Alexis Lacroix.

Alltimers’ New Video, ‘You Deserve It,’ Is Now Live

If you were too young to have experienced the real-time reign of the skaters most synonymous with the nineties — but had already clocked your 10,000 hours of watching skate videos by the time, say, Jake Johnson hit the scene — there’s a decent chance you carry a vivid memory of first seeing Zered in a video (especially if you grew up in the northeast.)
