“Figured since I had just started skating again, that I would film my ender in London…he was passing a message from Lev [Tanju] saying I’ve got to get my ender in Philly, you can’t come over here to do it. I was like, damn, alright, I guess I gotta skate this handrail.” Slam City Skates has a #longform “First & Last” interview with Jahmir Brown.

“How far back does Dylan Jaeb’s skate brain go? There’s another clue in the credits, where videographer Jacob Palumbo can briefly be seen dribbling soda out of a cup and onto a volcanic stone manual pad, which earlier in the vid is the site of a frontside 180 fakie manual kickflip out.” Boil the Ocean wrote about Dylan Jaeb’s new part and pouring soda on spots.

25. The Arizona Inflation Crisis of 2015

Eras in recent New York skateboarding are earmarked by shifts in the lowest of price points. For example: Up until it was phased out in maybe 2003, the chicken cutlet sandwich + can of soda for $2 deal at Universal News kept half the people I know fed. By late-2005, Little Debbie’s line of 25-cent snack cakes had doubled in price. Dollar menus were becoming dollar-and-up “value menus.” Some psychopaths really tried to charge tax on a dollar slice.

And now, the beverage that we lovingly spent our adolescence drinking, and punishing our blood sugar levels with, is trying to pull a fast one. You’re ranting about a generation of kids being homogenized by a skatepark; I’m more worried about the thought that they’ll have to pay $2 for an Arizona tall can, or $1 for 11.5 oz. of one.
