You The World

For the life of me, cannot backtrack to where this screengrab originated from, but it was definitely a non-American skate video from January. Anyone?

Mike Heikkila is the latest subject of Skate Jawn‘s “$100 Chill” feature, and presumably the first person to ever get a haircut on Blubba. Good reminder to keep that lotion on you this winter.

The Palace team (+ Lucien Clarke’s mom) gather around the TV to rewatch their seminal all-London video from 2017, Palasonic. Would be dope to see them commentate on the Bronze x Palace Paramount video, which feels a bit “forgotten” within each’s respective videography.

“The idea that I could make a show about skateboarding, but wouldn’t be relegated to ‘skate art’ but be taken seriously as an art show that happens to be about skateboarding, was something I am grateful for.” Esteban Jefferson spoke to Monster Children about his new solo show that is inspired by the Brooklyn Banks. It is on view @ 303 Gallery on W. 21st Street until February 26.

Our buddy Lui Elliott’s family lost their home in the tragic fires currently happening in Southern California. Please donate if you have the means to help them out. ❤️

The best bits of skate content from the past week are Peter Sidlauskas’ dives into skate spot lore of yesteryear, specifically spots that have fallen into the ashes of time via redevelopment: L train roof bank, the Wythe Street ledge, and of course, the Autumn Bowl.

The youngs rip, man. “Looking To Be” is a ten-minute video by Chris Argueta featuring the new gen stacking in New York. All NY clips, with Three Up Three Down continuing to endure as New York’s greatest skate spot, generation after generation.

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.

“Fun fact: One of my childhood heroes unfollowed me on Instagram after this interview came out.” Chops shared a list of his favorite interviews that he has done over the course of Chromeball. Ryan Hickey and Oyola almost “coming to blows” over a CBI interview is wild.

The voter registration deadline in New York is this Saturday, October 26. Yes, you can register online or in person 🗳

Really enjoyed this twenty-minute dad cam edit from the Quartersnacks Cup. The angle on the last races between Nick and John is especially great for a different perspective from the other HD or iPhone videos you may have seen.

2024 QS Cup Champion, Nick Michel, has a quick new part out for Thunder Trucks, which features a beautiful full cab, among other things.

F.A. and Converse hosted a $2,000 Game of S.K.A.T.E. Invitational at Tompkins two weeks back, and Greg Navarro covered it for Jenkem. Obviously, Tony Hawk won.
