Anyone try skating the new Battery Park yet? Prob a bit crowded…

It’s funny when the knob that they skate-block a spot with becomes an apparatus for tricks like a fakie inward heel switch fifty front 180 out — pretty much ramping up the level of technicality possible on a spot more than if they had just left it alone. All that and more in Ben Patrick’s fakie-forward Coda Skateboards part, released via our friends at Village Psychic.

“It’s a certain type of punishment to have to watch a video you worked really hard on over and over and over… it’s gnarly. I’m only two premieres in, and I’m already losing my mind a little bit.” Simple Magic spoke to Ryan Lay about the Sci-Fi Fantasy premiere tour, and the return [?] of touring skate moments in general.

Late Nite Stars Monument-tage @ The Williamsburg Monument

The world’s most densely populated skate scenes are no strangers to spot modifications. When oft-traversed spots get a lil’ dull, you can simply “edit” the spot — temporarily or permanently — to unlock a new dimension of possibilities.

The Late Nite Stars crew did exactly that at the Williamsburg Monument, a spot that has more-or-less looked exactly the same since the day that Bobby Puleo clocked the first bit of footage ever captured there a quarter-century ago. They took some sock money, and added in an assortment of Euro gaps, hips, and a hubba ledge [reminiscent of that baby one in Malmo that Connor and Josh love] into the spot’s centerpiece.

Meet At The Ledge-to-Puddle

One of the lesser seen Harlem Banks shots — the infamous uptown spot discussed in the Full Bleed ten-year anniversary interview earlier this month. Mike “Tex” Kelly, shot by Spike Jonze in 1988. Spotted via Science Versus Life.

Definitely one of the last tricks to be captured at the Carroll Street manny pad — one of Gabe Tennen’s favorite skate spots — via Max Rowlette’s “Shadow” part, spotted via Skate Jawn.

Chauncey Ledges is an entirely different spot once the ground gets cold. Headgear’s “I’m Just Livin’ It” edit is pretty much an all-Chauncey video features James Sayres and friends.

Feels like this one should have some more eyes on it: “kindasorta” by Nate Hanson. The needle-thread ollie to completely perpendicular boardslide in Murray Hill (?) is wild.
