East River Park south of Delancey opened on Friday. This means that the bridge that once lead to Alligator Ledge is back, although — brace yourself for bad news — it will not feature an Alligator Ledge. It does, however, include some suburban parking lot manny pads.

📅 1) Naquan & crew crew are hosting a skate jam with Thrasher at the Red Hook Skatepark tomorrow (9/9) @ 3 P.M. Flyer here. 2) Asics will be premiering their new video by Jacob Harris, A Guided Tour, at Palace Bar in Greenpoint this Thursday @ 8 PM. 21+. Flyer here.

“Will Steve Rodriguez and Gotham Park ultimately need to petition city hall to install a higher-yet rail or add several kinks? Does Antonio Durao’s membership in the rarified club of street handrail switch backside noseblunters put him on track to join the yet-more exclusive cadre of street handrail switch kickflip backside noseblunters?” …yeah, um, about that. Boil the Ocean wrote about how good the skateboarding going down at the Banks 2.0 is.

Mike Sass uploaded a raw reel from one of 2025’s best New York parts [or anywhere-parts, for that matter]: Neil Herrick 5Ball Re-Rack. Love when you can feel the intentionality in raw file editing v.s. it feeling like a footage dump. Best of all …they just decided to throw in an entire bonus part at the end. Some of that footy is way to good to be sitting at the last two minutes of an eighteen-minute timeline. [16:30 mark.]

Krooked returned to its Gnaughty and Gnar Gnar roots and got the lo-def camera out for “Weirdo 01,” a bro cam excursion to New York featuring the majority of the team (Bobby back at Three Up!), and a mini Andrew Wilson part at the end. Feels like between this and the NBA Youngboy video (lol), remodeled Zeigfeld is having a comeback year.

“Last week there was a feeling of some divine mission having been completed, with Anti-Hero bestowing professional status upon Nick Matthews.” Boil the Ocean wrote about Nick Matthews finally getting the pro nod in its latest.

Another 1 — “A Diego Todd Video For Stüssy” By Jesse Alba

Daily News July 25th, 2025 · 3:50 pm

Not even one month removed from his Hockey IV part — and thus an official coronation into the ranks of skateboarding’s tech gods — Diego Todd has a new part out for Stüssy, directed under the helm of Life Is Goodie* auteur, Jesse Alba.

It should be pointed out that not celebrating the ten-year anniversary of Life Is Goodie on 4/20 this year was egregious professional negligence on our part, and the newsroom has not heard the last of it.

Diego’s part has him further expanding his technical superpowers as he enters his Shane O’Neill era. Enclosed you will find some back tail big flips, a spine-contorting ender that would send any skater ten years his senior to the chiropractor by the fifth try, and some proof that noseblunt nollie flips are actually easy — just like the south Americans said. All of this is made all the more impressive by the fact that 75% of the part looks like it was filmed in a single Puerto Rico trip alongside his Stüssonian bandmates.

Devastated we couldn’t make the premiere at Duke’s. They look like they have a dope Bloody Mary.

Do Less did a 14-minute video profile of Jenkem with Ian, talking about the history of the company, the pre-Instagram era, and how the North Star of starting anything on your own is finding what’s missing from the perspective of a fan, which is great advice for any discipline.

Jiro Platt, Noah Pollard and Kaue Cossa go off in Naquan Rollings’ latest edit, “$$$ JAM UP EDITION.” Pretty much all New York clips.

“America’s biggest pastime is baseball, and we have a baseball field that changed over to a historic skateboarding spot. That says a lot for the future.” Jenkem wrote The Oral History of Tompkins Square Park.

“When the news first broke about the Malmö project using materials from LOVE, the reporting made it seem as though all the materials that were salvaged were going overseas, so there was some damage control needed there. The reality was that it was only a relatively small amount of granite that made it to Sweden – some tiles and some blocks. All the most significant features were never going to leave Philadelphia.” Free got the full tale of the Love Park marble being taken to Malmö and incorporated into a public plaza.
