Rocks In The Burritos

“For the kids coming out of rough homes, for those grappling against doubt and depression, pressures real or felt, the battles can have a kind of seductiveness. The way they can grip and blot out nearly every other single thing, to the point of blacking out. The fulfillment and release of actually prevailing can be almost secondary… even faintly deflating.” Boil the Ocean wrote about skateboarding. And Marc Johnson.

Greenpoint Palace is hosting a premiere of the new Polar video, You Got It My Boy Jamie, this Thursday, June 4th @ 8:30 P.M. 21+. 206 Nassau Avenue, Brooklyn. Flyer here.

Congrats to The Bunt on ten years 🤝

Damn, remember when Tyshawn switch ollied one of these things from flat, and then morons in the comments (not on QS, but elsewhere) were like, “Yeah, nah, actually the corner is kinda bent, so…” Anyway, shout out to the gate challenge.

🔑 Introduction, Interviews & Collages by Farran Golding
📷 Headline Composition: Román González by Alex Pires for Free Skate Mag, Momiji Nishiya by Allan Carvalho for Mess Skate Mag, Corey Bittle by Tyler Storm Brady for Skate Jawn, Alexis Sablone for Golden Hour and Brad Cromer for PLANK by Matt Price

Walking around chairs wrapped in merlot fabric, the waiters of L’Entracte Brasserie in Paris went about their morning shift, placing silverware and wine glasses, unfazed by the camera flashes of photographer Alex Pires.

The restaurant faces the Palais Garnier Opera House, a building that is almost two centuries old, and as iconic as other Parisian landmarks such as Notre-Dame and Sacré-Coeur. Outside the opera house, an image of the Palais Garnier’s façade was depicted on a temporary wall, producing an illusion the French call “trompe-l’œil.” It directed visitors to entrances above and below a stairway. Two hours before the venue opened at around 7 A.M. on a damp, December 2024 day, Román González threw himself into the temporary façade of the Palais, clinging onto a frontside wallride down the stairs.

Belated 2016 dive find 🌴 what a time

Nice to meet you, he’s an artist.

Hans Klein gave Skate Jawn the backstory to Khaw Wangkaji’s tre flip into the escalator bank at the World Trade Center, which was #1 on the final Top 10 of last year. So crazy that enough time passes where it’s just regular “you can’t skate here” security to new generations of skaters. Angry dudes holding machine guns used to kick you out for skating around the building before, never mind the inside.

This. Is. Cinema 🎬

Jenkem profiled the Utica D.I.Y. in Bed-Stuy and the people who make it possible. Anytime there’s footage of dudes buying concrete, I think about the time a Home Depot employee told the Shorty’s Newark dudes that they “look like Kings of Leon” while concrete shopping.

Added the Federal Plaza section in Polymer’s Lighter Than Air video — filmed entirely at the …Federal Plaza in Akron, Ohio — to the One-Spot Part Map 📍 Didn’t know Akron had it like that.

Naquan Rollings’ “$$$nine” edit is an all-L.A. outing with a mini Thomas Dritsas part + a heelflip surprise saved for the end.

👀 Krooked x Quartersnacks available on our webstore today @ noon E.S.T. 👀

Yoooo… calling this edit from David Mauvais and his crew a “footy dump” is crazy. The front board body varial bigspin thing in The Bronx, the ollie off the manny pad at Seventh and Greenwich, the switch tre lip, wow. All New York x New Jersey x Philly clips.

“Floorspace” is a very sick upstate New York edit from Martin Wilson. Great filming, cutty spots, fast skating, timeless vibes.
