Johnny Cumaoglu with the first Small Banks clip heard around the ~~world~~ DMs + ok, so now we need a Shintaro Hongo one-spot part at the Brooklyn Banks, ASAP + @banks_at_six Small Banks reportage has begun 🧱 (“You wanna skate a curb in Central Park??? We’re going to the Banks, buddy! Six o’clock!”)

We are a long way from “cherry.” Last week coincided with two profiles of its stars and their grown-up lives: Christian Kerr profiled Tyshawn Jones for Hypebeast (“This is probably my last interview for a while. We’re going to let the skating talk. Then when the skating is done, they’ll ask for more interviews”) + Sage Elsesser was profiled by the High Snobiety magazine.

Two Weeks Until 7 P.M. Sunsets

Have been laughing about this for a week straight. Via Tao.

The winter’s been so fucked that Courthouse is a snowboard spot now.

“It is my last name. It is not a stage name.” Skate Jawn interviewed Elisa Martini.

Mike Sass uploaded a raw reel from one of 2025’s best New York parts [or anywhere-parts, for that matter]: Neil Herrick 5Ball Re-Rack. Love when you can feel the intentionality in raw file editing v.s. it feeling like a footage dump. Best of all …they just decided to throw in an entire bonus part at the end. Some of that footy is way to good to be sitting at the last two minutes of an eighteen-minute timeline. [16:30 mark.]

Krooked returned to its Gnaughty and Gnar Gnar roots and got the lo-def camera out for “Weirdo 01,” a bro cam excursion to New York featuring the majority of the team (Bobby back at Three Up!), and a mini Andrew Wilson part at the end. Feels like between this and the NBA Youngboy video (lol), remodeled Zeigfeld is having a comeback year.

“Last week there was a feeling of some divine mission having been completed, with Anti-Hero bestowing professional status upon Nick Matthews.” Boil the Ocean wrote about Nick Matthews finally getting the pro nod in its latest.

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.

‘Nice To Meet You, I’m Pro’ — Andrew Wilson’s Krooked Pro Part

Daily News November 8th, 2024 · 12:00 pm

Over here at QS HQ International, we have been posting Johnny Wilson’s videos for a long time. Like 12 years or something. We were by no means the first ones to start pushing them out to the ether — we first caught them off Skate Jawn back in like ~2012 (show of hands: Space Heater? Skate Video?) — but they’ve been a fixture around here since before, like, Instagram had video capabilities and shit.

The momentum from those videos helped fuel the skate careers of Cyrus, Max Palmer, Nik Stain et al., in addition to companies like 917 and Limosine, which provided an additional platform for their skating. But Andrew — Johnny’s just-slightly older brother — always went by his own beat, clocking one of the best parts in each and every one of those Johnny vids. Drew briefly rode for an early stage Alltimers before hopping over to Polar for an extended stay, and ultimately finding himself on Krooked, which blessed him with a pro board that has been long, long overdue.
