Long Day At The Content Factory

🏀 Knicks x Quartersnacks ’47 Brand hats available in our webstore 🏀

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.

No Spots In Spotsylvania

Adding Ratscavage’s CURB video to the Quartersnacks One-Spot Part Map 📍 CURB is a 27-minute video filmed exclusively at the 12th and Monmouth curbs / D.I.Y. in Jersey City. Heard the spot called Moishe’s ages ago, but haven’t really been tapped in with what’s going on with Jersey City skateboarding in recent times. Calling it Moishe’s on the map because “Oh jeez, I worked for Moishe, I worked for Mayflower…”

Back tail shove sorcery on the ledge between the two banks at ConEd plus more in the new Late Nite Stars throwaway edit — hopefully a hint of a new full-length on the way.

The community board approved the construction of the Brooklyn Skate Garden in Mount Prospect Park, albeit the scaled-down version that is half the size of the original plan.

Womp On This

Interesting, this one • 📷 via Kev

The Small Banks are open + Jeezy paid a visit to the Big Banks ☃

L.E.S. Park was on Law & Order.

“We finished the day …at Bunna Cafe.” Poe Pinson is the latest spender on Skate Jawn‘s “$100 Chill” series for their 40th episode. Ocean Hill clips were fire. (If there are ever budget cuts at Jawn HQ, Gothamist laid out a template for a NYC-based “$20 Chill” last week. Yes, Manhattan still has a bar that gives you a free hot dog if you buy a beer. It’s no Bunna tho.)

“Fever Dream” is a new 12-minute Massachusetts scene video by Shawn MacMillan filmed mainly on chunks of crust and featuring Connor Noll, Cooper Qua, Eddie Vargas, and others.

The Stuff That Dreams Are Made Of

Avenue A has been repaved ❤️

Our friends at Dancer have a new 10-minute video out entitled “HPX8000,” which features Hjalte, J-Skrodds, and the new generation out of Copenhagen. Filmed entirely across Denmark, 95% on spots that the skate tourists don’t skate.

“If it fails, let’s fail really bad. Let’s just have fun with it in the meantime.” High Snobiety an a profile on Ayman and Osama about the new Carpet store that they just opened up in Baltimore.

Time For The Real Sports

There comes a time in every skate tank’s life where it ceases to merely get you TO the spot, and it …becomes the spot. The rubicon has been crossed.

Dime x Quartersnacks available now ⬅️

“Chris Joslin never did no shit like this.” Jamal Smith is back in front of the camera, mic’d up at the skatepark …in the snow. Can’t wait for episode two.

“Return of the Genius” is a new eight-minute edit by Carlo Campos of the Genius crew. It is a beautiful inferno of absolutely insane manny combos, all filmed in New York. Anyone confused by the madness within should find solace in the ancient proverb: the chaos of the youth’s manual tricks is reflective of the world they have inherited from their elders. (Should’ve been it’s own post, but last week was a hectic backend one at the office 😵‍💫)

Alexis Lacroix having an allotment of ohhhhh yeaaaaahhhh’s in Dime videos is very funny.
