GOODNIGHT IRENE is the new video from Dais Skate Co., and it might be the widest net of local spots maybe ever? Oh, going to The Bronx is deep for you this weekend? These dudes skate every single borough, upstate, Long Island, Jersey, Connecticut, Philly — literally everywhere. The filmer’s spotbook has gotta be crazy.

Of all the things QS has been a part of, being able to facilitate a bit of seed money to the D.I.Y. plaza next to the Trinity Repertory Theater in downtown Providence, Rhode Island (back in the days when Levi’s had a formal skate program and was putting $ toward’s D.I.Y’s) has to be the top of the list. Here are the renderings for what the latest expansion will be. Wow.

Slouching Towards T.F.

Thanks to everyone for their suggestions on the QS one-spot map. Going to try and keep it as up to date as possible. Funny how practically the same day we went live with it, there was a new part filmed entirely at the Dylan monument spot in Berlin, and one at the Herbis plaza in Osaka. (Portland sources seem to say that the new Silas part is filmed at two spots, thus failing to qualify for the metric of being able to pinpoint it to a single location.)

Thrasher dropped an extended IGTV raw edit of the T.J. footy from the last lil’ Instamix that came out alongside his lowtop shoe. Wow, obvs.

Ben Kadow has a new Hockey part filmed pretty much entirely in the city, on insane spots that seldom register as “spots” to us normies, e.g. the 5050 bench ollie at Central Park, the perpendicular drop in boardslide, et al.

All the Streets Are Silent — the documentary that was supposed to be about Zoo York’s Mixtape video before sprawling into a much bigger project — arrives in theaters this week.
