Moneyline is the new Miami scene video from Justin Stout, the videographer behind past Andrew projects Rascal and Yastle.
The vid is anchored by heavy appearances from Josh Wolff, Rezza Honarvar, Victor Lustig and Henry Barco, alongside a wide net of familiar faces to anyone who’s gone down to skate Miami in recent years. And as those visitors can attest, stacking for a video in Miami month after month, year after year takes work — fixing spots, keeping an eye open nuggets unturned, and knowing that the best new spot might be some shit that only lasts for a week before construction changes it forever. A Miami video from a few years ago looks nothing like one from today. They skate that marble Brickell fountain that was all over videos in the post-COIVD era zero times throughout this entire video. White blocks? Zero. That gap into the street that was all over the Supreme Miami video? Nope.
So of course you gotta skip town once in while ;)
(And don’t you wish all security guards were like that guy?)
“Nicotine Riser Pads are the only riser pads that funnel nicotine through your board, into your toes, and right into your brain.” Bronze 56k pivoted and created a rock station: Bronze 56k, THE BOLT 🔩 The only station that can turn your three-day hangover into a five-day bender.
“It’s the difference between technical perfection and genuine joy.” The Main profiled Vincent Tsang, one of the original founders behind Dime and its evolution from YouTube hijinx to a revered Québécoise fashion house.
The results are in and we have an official, publicly sourced snapshot of 2024 skateboarding, as voted on by hundreds of people. And unlike last year, when the eventual Thrasher S.O.T.Y. winner dropped a part on the day that voting closed, there were no last-minute surprises. There are some new names, and some longtime favorites who have only ranked 20-11 in the past have finally broke into the top ten ❤️
Thanks to everyone who voted, and everyone who did some writing below :)
Videographer Lannie Rhoades posted up an extended cut of a 2019 Volcom trip to New York with Milton Martinez (S.O.T.Y. year), Louie Lopez, Simon Bannerot, and more. Simon’s 4x ollies at the Jerome Avenue Banks will forever rank as one of the most insane tricks ever done in New York + Milton’s line there + Con-Ed ollie is also completely fucked.

“Is the speed of Jamie Foy’s ascent, from amateur to pro and SOTY the same year, a reflection of or reason behind the breakneck pace driving skate media these days?…Could the nod to Jamie Foy also serve as a quiet acknowledgement that it shoulda been Fred Gall one of those years?”
Iron Claw is [not] having a premiere for their new video this Wednesday, December 13, at 122 Meserole Street. Two showings: one at 8 P.M. and another at 9. Teaser here.
Though Ride doesn’t do much these days apart from continue to ask us why Chicago isn’t a bigger deal in skateboarding, Slap brought back the article predictions thread for 2018. “Shake Junt hires Ty Evans for next video: Chicken Drone Nowison.”
Theories is posting raw files from Elkin’s videos. First episode is fall 2010, and features Aaron Herrington, Leo Gutman, Quim, and Vert God before he started to GRoE.
“Like the flow of posts through social media, skateboard graphics are inherently ephemeral. They are destined to be worn and scuffed and distorted until all that remains is smeared paint and exposed wood. But some images are designed to linger, if only in the imagination.” On the ascent of Polar Skateboards…as a menswear brand.
Jamal Smith tweeted this one yesterday. Probably, haven’t watched it this decade, but remember that finally tracking down that Diamond D song was a pivotal prepubescent moment. Also, shout out to all the 2017 Kasperholics.
