N.B.D. alert 🚨
Naquan uploaded an edit from the Roadkill x Thrasher skate jam that went down at the Red Hook Skatepark this past Tuesday.
Get ready for an hour of O.G. Respect™: Living Proof Radio got Harry Jumonji on for an interview live from Brazil. “If you fall at the Brooklyn Banks, you look like a mechanic.”

T-Funk’s financial advice to his future children: “Don’t look up to me.” He thinks Tom Scharr is trying to be Bob Burnquist, but Bob Burnquist says he himself wants to be Tom Scharr. Satan’s Drano siphoned the Hot Ones format through a satanic offshoot of 90s public access TV for their show, The Last Supper, and their first guest is Tristan Funkhouser.
Melodi dropped a quick edit for their Spitfire collab. Mostly New York clips, with a lot of homies. Quinn, Coles, Gabe ‘n them :)
So just in the past four days, the Brooklyn Banks reopened, Hardies threw a skate jam at D7 without incident (well, for the most part…), there’s a “~mini ramp~” at Tompkins, and summer *technically* hasn’t started yet…
Nico from Paris has a new bro cam edit out on YouTube that covers a trip to New York + Copenhagen, with an extended Paris section at the end. Probably one of the best places to see Kevin Rodrigues out in the wild …on the internet. Also includes Antonio, E.J., Hjalte + the bros.
A 420-foot nollie lipslide is essentially the same runtime as a 2025 rap song. Also posted this on the IG story only to have people be like, “He’s using rails!” I think you guys might be missing the point of a 420-foot nollie lipslide…

“Creative = good? It depends a bit on the definition… If I had to choose, I would prefer simple and functional in form – creative and high-quality in implementation and look, with attention to detail. When in doubt, I prefer simple and reduced – but well thought out and with intention.” Bubble has a roundtable with a bunch of skatepark designers discussing how you balance keeping a skatepark “creative” and still functional. There’s a solid 10% of QS readers sharpening their knives for every designer of a local park that has only curved ledges and no straight ones…
Diet starts Monday. Last one I swear. Maybe one more. R.I.P. Mambo Bar.
Nelly Moreville posted up another iPhone montage. Heavy on skating in the snow.

Pittsburgh spots make ConEd Banks look like MACBA. Mini ramps with tree branches for coping, banks that need ten sheets of plywood to get to, and cracks obfuscated by six-pack holders all in Justin Funk’s “SCORCHER” video, presented by our friends over at Vague.
“A split second after I took that photo both of those cats, like, mauled Aaron. He was trying to hold them together and it just wasn’t working. They scratched him so hard he was bleeding out of his forearm. He was over rounding them up, like, ‘I don’t think it’s gonna happen…'” Skate Bylines interviewed the mind behind Heckride for some B.T.S. stories and inspo talk around his photo book of skaters and their pets. Wishbone and Hashbrown are really good pet names.
