The voter registration deadline in New York is this Saturday, October 26. Yes, you can register online or in person 🗳

Really enjoyed this twenty-minute dad cam edit from the Quartersnacks Cup. The angle on the last races between Nick and John is especially great for a different perspective from the other HD or iPhone videos you may have seen.

2024 QS Cup Champion, Nick Michel, has a quick new part out for Thunder Trucks, which features a beautiful full cab, among other things.

F.A. and Converse hosted a $2,000 Game of S.K.A.T.E. Invitational at Tompkins two weeks back, and Greg Navarro covered it for Jenkem. Obviously, Tony Hawk won.

QS x Cons Available March 1 🏀

Vague has a premiere of Brian Powderly’s Static 6 part. Ollieing into that smudge of asphalt on the other side of the Ridgewood Reservoir spot is, as they say, ~completely unhinged~.

Vague also sat down for an extended video chat with three of the principal filmers behind the Static series to talk all the things that skate videographers talk about 🧠

Another Vague link?! Yes, another Vague link: they interviewed Hopps teamrrider and QS office favorite, Kyler Garrison.

From a Shoelace Belt to the Movie Set

We went to this iconic chunk of New Jersey crust last summer, and somebody in the car was like, “I heard some Brazilian dude frontside flipped into this.” Didn’t doubt it, because, you know — Brazilian skaters — but wow. The footage dropped in Retta Skateshop’s Atemporal video that went live on Free last week. It’s in Rafael Gomes’ incredible closer part, which includes an ender at another famous nearby Jersey bank. *Prepares for somebody to say “Tony Macaroni from Lodi actually already frontside flipped into that in 1912.”*

Brianna Delaney has a new, all-Barcelona part out for Grand Collection and Converse. In a career full of incredible back tails, that ender still belongs in the hall of fame.

Our guy Rafael Pereira B.K.A. Haffa dropped a new part filmed on his travels throughout Latin America, with some impeccable switch heel form to close things out.

Still got some loose sizes of holiday QS gear on sale in the webstore ⛵️ Thanks for supporting what we do :)

“I tell Bill all the time, ‘I don’t have that many video parts left in me.'” Farran Golding profiled Tyshawn Jones and Bill Strobeck for GQ.

We were out in Argentina last month, and were lucky enough to get shown around by Eze Martinez (Milton’s brother, yes.) He’s got an incredible section in the new Cons Argentina edit. There’s something extra fun in watching siblings who skate at absolute opposite ends of the skate spectrum excel in their respective corners at this high of a level. (No Milton footy in this video though.)

A Stateside Debut — Victor Campillo’s ‘SanVico’ Part

Video & Remixes July 18th, 2022 · 12:00 pm · 2

Regular QS readers know our frequent appreciation of videos coming out of the Marseille scene — with Victor Campillo often a centerpiece of each one.

So we were honored when videographer Macéo Moreau, Quotamine, and the crew at Cons hit us up to debut Victor’s first U.S. part, filmed entirely in San Francisco during a winter trip. Anyone who has watched those Marseille edits knows that the French city is also quite hilly itself, making S.F. the perfect American canvas for Victor’s #longform lines — and frankly, providing just as much of a showcase for Macéo’s filming abilities as he charges alongside Victor down the street, weaving an S, and never missing a beat.
