We had hit Marcello about his availability for something completely unrelated this past fall, and he mentioned he was in Rome. Now, like most Americans, if you’ve been to Rome, and stayed in the historic center that most tourists stay in, you quickly come to the conclusion that yeah, maybe Rome isn’t the best city for skate spots. (By contrast, in Turin or Milan, you can find spots pretty easy… Florence and central Naples, yeah nah.)

“You’re going on a skate trip …to Rome? Interesting?” seems like a common reaction to many of us who don’t know any better, but it turns out we’re all idiots.

Watching this edit, our first reaction was, “these spots are …in Rome?!” Turns out a lot of things change when you leave the historic tourist center. Shocking, right? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Itchy For Society

Someone was like, “Do y’all still have that hat?!” It’s on the webstore, buddy ✅

Pero Šimić has a sick new two-minute part for Obey by Naquan Rollings, which consists of all New York clips. That ollie onto the board-width ledge was some Lennie Kirk shit, and the pillar rides at the Banks are a new dimension.

“The sheer audacity of plunking a switch backside noseblunt down the Brooklyn Banks nine-stair rail in the middle of an edit has previously been discussed.” Boil the Ocean goes through the potential 2025 S.O.T.Y. contenders. When’s the last time a vert skater was the frontrunner?

Sexhippies new video, which is a dive into the scene in western Massachusetts and a bit beyond, just went live. “Earth Mafia” has a fire opening part from Eddie Vargas Jr., appearances from Andrew Wilson, Cooper Qua, Zac Gavin and many other familiar faces.

Soo Saxton’s “SHARE YOUR LOCATION” Part

Soo Saxton first came on our radar with a pair of parts by Gabe Shah back in 2022 — one of which ended with an ollie on Second Avenue that had sat as a NBD for decades. (An attempt on it first popped up in a 2001 Logic video.)

Today, we’re proud to present a new Soo part that him and Greg Navarro had been working on all year. Inspired by a late night, multi-hour trick battle that ended with him finally having a look at his phone only to see a plethora of missed calls and texts from his worried girlfriend, “Share Your Location” is the latest dispatch from the “Upper West Side Curb Club” multi-verse while we wait for Greg’s upcoming all-Central Park full-length video. Rad to see them hit nuggets that largely sit dormant between Columbus Circle and the Riverside Skatepark: the two-second bust Lincoln Center steps on Broadway, Dante Park, Straus Park, the 72nd Street 1 train stop (shout out Gray’s) and beyond.

Got told a dope story by someone during game six about how their friend got his eight-year-old, basketball-obsessed son a Josh Hart jersey, and told him a dictum along the lines of, “If you’re ever going to make it into the NBA, your best chance is learning to play like this guy.” 💙 🧡

Gabbers is Sporty & Rich in the latest installment of Skate Jawn‘s “$100 Chill” feature, which probably has the highest volume of beer purchases from any installment? 🍺

“REMOTE VIEWING” is the latest edit from Theories of Atlantis featuring a wide survey of midwestern crust. Includes appearances from QS favorites Nick Rainey, Connor Noll, Nyle Lovett + more.

Carl Aikens took a bunch of his bros on a trip to Milan and came back with this five-minute edit by Jeff Cecere and Ritt Pontepsiripong. Marcello’s flip 5-0 on that Centrale rail was too good.

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.
