Still Here

Daily News January 20th, 2025 · 12:00 am · 2

You realize all that skate blogging was worth it when you see a 2025 teenager skating Reggaeton Ledges to peak Young Jeezy. “A Third Perspective” is a sick 15-minute, all-NYC homie video from Alim Orahovac and the youngs. [Being in a homie video where one of your friends varial flips and another tre flips the Flushing grate is a mandatory rite of passage in life.]

“The video is called ‘Still in Atlanta’ because of fools who moved to New York or L.A. and were on me about staying here, saying shit like ‘Atlanta is dead.'” Jenkem spoke to Atlanta skate scene ambassador, Justin Hearn, about the ATL scene and his new video.

More Sidlauskian spot nostalgia is what we need :)

2012 My Year — Limosine’s Montreal Trip Video

Daily News December 13th, 2024 · 2:44 pm

There may be no Canadian S.O.T.Y. finalists, but Canada The Country certainly didn’t get the memo, as it has been basking in unmistakable main character energy as the rest of the world sits on the edge of their seats for the skater that will lay claim to the …year.

Not only did the esteemed Préfontaine Bank walk away with this year’s Time “Person of the Year” award earlier this week, but Limosine — which does not sponsor or employ any Canadians at press time — chose the world’s second biggest country as a shooting location for the commemoration of their latest drop, all during a week that can only rightfully be described as an honorary Canadian Skateboard Week.

Was damn near impossible to suppress the encroaching smile once the beat switched into the second song. Ocean gang we in this motherfucker.

Stressed in Front of the Mayor — Dime’s ‘GLORY’ Video Is Live

Daily News December 4th, 2024 · 2:09 pm

Dime videos have always been calculated exercises in brevity: how do you condense three or four years worth of filming into less than twenty minutes of bangers?

GLORY: The Legend of Dime is expansive. (30 minutes!) It is the crew’s first video in over half-a-decade, and in that time, this very un-serious company got a bit more serious — in the having an actual office, an army of Bryans, paying Jake Johnson and Andrew Reynolds, and hosting an event attended by seventy million people sense of the word “serious.”

Pour que tu m’aimes — ‘DEMBANDZ’ by Pagaille

Video & Remixes July 9th, 2024 · 12:00 am · 6

For years, there’s been this “rule” in the QS charter that we won’t host any video over thirty minutes in length. It was a simple way to set a boundary on the amount of time we could spend vetting videos: a few hour-long videos is a pretty big chunk of the workweek, yaknow? But all rules meet an eventual exception, and today, the board of directors signed off on us presenting DEMBANDZ to the QS viewership.

Max Wasungu had mentioned that him and his Pagaille crew had been working on a full-length project — one that would feature his first proper *part* — when we interviewed him back in February. It’s eleven minutes over the “limit,” but it’s so beautifully fried that it didn’t feel right to just cut a part out of it as a standalone thing.
