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.

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.

“Leftover and lost footage, glitched tapes, steady shot on, broken mic, windshield lens, and other angles.” Paul Coots uploaded a twenty-minute, black-and-white raw reel of outtakes from The HIT Video, which dropped this time, two years ago. Heavy on the Max clips, obvs. Rumor has it that Coots is working on a sequel! 🤞

Transworld, which apparently has the rights to the 411VM archive (or something to that effect, idk), revived the video magazine’s “Spot Check” featurette for a modern version. The first installment is shot by Mike Sass and checks out Borough Hall, covering every corner from the micro curved ledge to the tall ‘n short handrails.

Lee Madden and the Orchard crew put together a 2013-2023 retrospective edit of Brian Reid’s footage on account of him joining the pro ranks ❤️

Greg Szudzik and Ben Patrick’s shared part in Dana Ross’ Purpose video is live. You can buy the video in full via Dana’s webstore.

John Shanahan starts a line by rolling off the amphitheater at the Citi Field benches, props a tile up to the second level of the CBS benches, and kickflips off the grate side over the Crosby Street bump-to-bar in his latest DC part, in case you haven’t caught it yet.

Everybody’s unloading their fakie 5-0 flip out clips at Big Screen now that the spot’s knobbed 😔 Jasper Stieve and Neema Joorabchi come through with a new one for Free, featuring watery gap to grinds and exemplary frontside heelflip form.

“I think it’s safe to say that the range for a proper ledge height in a skate park setting should be between 13 1/2 and 14 1/4 inches.” Dave Caddo went around the city measuring the dimensions of some of its most oft-skated ledges, from the 12-inch-high Reggaeton fence ledge or the 19-inch-high Flushing Meadows Park Ledges. He compiled his findings over on his Substack, Skait Brane.
