Justin Grzechowiak’s Part in “8-TRACK” By Busted.Mic

📷 Photo by Josh Bowser

8-TRACK is latest video by Stephen Buggica’s Tampa-based Busted.Mic outfit, which has been dispatching from Florida for probably a ~decade now.

Today, we are happy to share Justin Grzechowiak’s part with you from their new one.

Now, how does a skater most closely associated with the second biggest city in New York find himself with a starring role in a video based out of the third biggest city in Florida? Well, since we first became fans of Justin’s Buffalo-based crust excavations via Theories of Atlantis, we figured Floridian x Static alumn Pat Stiener would be the one to dig up the answers. Enjoy the part and brief Q & A via Pat below.

Our dear friend Torey Goodall talks small-town Canadian beginnings, watching Palace evolve from the “Tres Trill” days to their new community center in London, and the consciousness shift against “cool guy” vibes in skateboarding, fashion and beyond on the Nowhere Fast podcast.

Alexey Krasniy does a bunch of wild shit in New York — from Blubba to random rocks on the street to a nose manny at Police Plaza that’s a shoo-in for Top 10 this week — in his closing part in the Piss Drunx video. (Yes, it’s a brand now ¯\_(ツ)_/¯) Is that the first time somebody did the Wade Fyfe slam hubba in Barcelona?

Party Month

Holiday QS stuff arriving at U.S. shops now. Online soon. Europe + Asia + Canada should be arriving this week. Much love for the support as always 🎁

The quality + quantity of footage Antonio got in one day of skating downtown L.A. for an Insta clip promoting a Dunk collab does a decent job of capturing his magic. Kinda felt like a more lo-def edition of those Numbers edits they were dropping in the late 2010s.

Our friends at Classic Grip dropped a new edit: “Basgrain 700k.”

Thrasher posted their photo feature from Supreme’s Play Dead video online for all those who didn’t catch the print issue, with captions from Ben Kadow. “This concludes bump-to-can skating.”

Pro skater / hockey player / tennis player / jump roper Gino Iannucci is the latest subject of Thrasher‘s “Out There” series.

Pat Hoblin dropped a part with Place filmed in New York over the course of five days, full of cutty spots and cramped spaces.

Bump To Supply Chain

“I realized so many stories or moments that I’ve lived don’t have photos to accompany them. I wasn’t equipped, equipment-wise or mentally, to decide, ‘This moment is a photo,’ and I need to go out of my way to get it no matter what people think.” The Slam City Skates blog has an interview with French photographer, Benjamin Deberdt, about coming to New York to shoot photos of Keenan, Huf and the Cardona brothers in the nineties. (He shot the above Huf photo.)

Added Vu Skateshop’s “Lyric” video — filmed entirely at the Lyric Monument in Baltimore — to the QS One-Spot Part Map.
