Our dear friends up at Orchard in Boston just dropped their most fully realized project of the Ted Purtell era. Word was it was supposed to go live last week (would’ve made it quite a week to be dropping an east coast shop vid with the word “bone” in the title 🙃), but people were insisting on one-upping their premiere night enders. A good problem to have if you’ve ever sat shotgun to a filmer who’s sighed “the video’s done when ___ gets their ender” across multiple months ;)
This deserved its own post but dropped on a travel day: 10/10 style-out on that opening switch ollie, they got …graced with enough time at the Grace building 🥁 to get a line, and OMG @ that inward heel in “Double E,” a new Orchard Skateshop edit starring Eddie Vargas and Eamon Durkan, filmed by Ted Purtell. Mostly Mass spots, but they make it down to New York a few times. (That impossible in the West Village, too!)
Xavier Holte skates through the rock salt in a cruisey, all-NYC part for OJ Wheels.
Jenkem has a great feature on the next generation of skate videographers from around the world, including the New York-based Alim Orahovac.
