R.I.P. Metrocards

Congrats to Nelly Morville on the pro board for Limo! 🎆

Angel Fonseca and the Papi Brand dudes up in The Bronx dropped a new bro cam edit called “Dude, Where’s That Spot,” which’ll have you asking… “dude, where’s that spot?” So fire how nobody skates the downtown Brooklyn skatepark, but you’ll still see that curb down the stairs pop up in edits as a street spot.

Paul Young has been uploading single parts from his Down By Law video, on the occasion that you want a micro-dose: Luke Malaney + the Traffic team, Arty Smith, Grady Smith, German Nieves, Justin Helmkamp, Chachi/Mind Bender/Dustin, Josh Wilson, Vin Perso.

Destiny’s Child Traded Beyoncé To TLC For Chili

Primitive Video by Thomas Albin: one of humanity’s earliest ancestors discovers an anachronistic VX1000, and mankind is immediately advanced hundreds of thousands of years into the future to the partially unknobbed ledge that sits atop a four-stair platform between the Brooklyn Academy of Music and a Whole Foods. Otherwise, a really fun homie video that keeps its sights on the Normal People Spots of this city, e.g. there’s no Courthouse and the biggest set is an eight 💪

Pulling up to the Boston Aquarium ledges [as seen in decades worth of skate videos and The Departed] as an out of towner is a shared experience. Few places have as wide of a disparity between “omg that looks so fun!” when seen on videos, v.s. the “what the actual fuck are these cracks” when you arrive like Aquarium does, so it makes sense that the locals have the best clips there. Jerry Fowler, the Godfather of Six-Figure Ledge Skating™, breaks down the history of Boston’s crackiest ledge spot alongside from a who’s who of the New England skate scene for the latest Jenkins Log.

Lotta Brodies, One Ledge

Naquan Rollings’ “$$$six” video is a slice of life montage into what it is like to spend hours on end at the refurbished Tompkins Square Park, circa 2024. Could basically be VR. That backflip guy has to go back and get that. #tfreport.

“I don’t make something unless I really like it and think it’s fire and cool and I want to wear it — or I think it’ll sell. Usually the shit that I think is the best and all my friends think is the coolest doesn’t do well. Then the shit that I’m like, ‘Whatever, this is bullshit’ — it sells out.” A tale as old as time. Village Psychic interviewed Myles Underwood, the mind behind Fuck This Industry.

Theories shared Josh Feist’s part from Traffic’s It’s Completely Fine video. Heavy on the Philly clips, lots of insanely crustaceous spots, and those tricks from the black marble rock onto the cement ledge are wild.
