A sense of mystery is not a common facet of today’s professional skateboarder. However, many would be hard-pressed to say much about Aaron Loreth beyond his well-documented attention towards tight transitions and brick manual pads. With his tall figure and light touch, there’s an ethereal feel to Loreth’s skating that furthers the intrigue.

The warm-ups. The shit leftover from trying the “serious” tricks that get saved for BIG VIDEO.

QS x Cons Available March 1 🏀

Vague has a premiere of Brian Powderly’s Static 6 part. Ollieing into that smudge of asphalt on the other side of the Ridgewood Reservoir spot is, as they say, ~completely unhinged~.

Vague also sat down for an extended video chat with three of the principal filmers behind the Static series to talk all the things that skate videographers talk about 🧠

Another Vague link?! Yes, another Vague link: they interviewed Hopps teamrrider and QS office favorite, Kyler Garrison.
