The voter registration deadline in New York is this Saturday, October 26. Yes, you can register online or in person 🗳

Really enjoyed this twenty-minute dad cam edit from the Quartersnacks Cup. The angle on the last races between Nick and John is especially great for a different perspective from the other HD or iPhone videos you may have seen.

2024 QS Cup Champion, Nick Michel, has a quick new part out for Thunder Trucks, which features a beautiful full cab, among other things.

F.A. and Converse hosted a $2,000 Game of S.K.A.T.E. Invitational at Tompkins two weeks back, and Greg Navarro covered it for Jenkem. Obviously, Tony Hawk won.

The rumors are true, yes. We’re bringing The Quartersnacks Cup back this year, but with Vans. It’ll be more public. More info coming soon ;)

Shaquille Waite put together a thorough initial #tfreport of the re-done ground with his crew. It’s so …green! The fakie frontside flip over the bump-to-bar was nuts.

“Skaters who think they smoke a lot of weed have nothing on hockey players.” Una Farrar is the latest subject of Skate Jawn‘s “$100 Chill” series — except it’s about $120 Canadian! (Somehow, it’s actually like $135CAD…)

Is It Finally Summer?

Just like a job site. One doing the work, one on his phone, one taking a nap.

“High school was lawless. We didn’t really learn shit. It was just a way to keep kids within one building.” Young legend Coles Bailey has an interview with Jenkem about the mustache he’s been growing since sixth grade, Christmas beef with NYU guys, and meeting Andre 3000.

Jenkem also hung out with Fred Gall to get the history of one of New Jersey’s longest running brands, Metal Skateboards.

Our dude Eze Martinez has a new, all-L.A. part for Pepper Griptape. He knows his way around a bank. He’s been in New York for the past week doing all sorts of …well, you’ll see ;)

Turning the Page

Daily News December 18th, 2023 · 12:00 am

Angel and the Papi Brand dudes dropped the new installment of their Bronx-centric video series, and it’s the most extensive one yet: Bill$ 4 Inflation went live last week. Features great parts from Angel Fonseca (who’s still getting better and better) and Justin Adams + other homies, and a lot of dives into Bronx spots that only the locals skate.

Nothing is touching Limo edits right now. It’s not even that much skating, but the eight minutes fly by in Limosine’s North Carolina trip video featuring the entire team.

Ryan Mettz made an extended edition remix of Max Palmer’s “Spiked Off” part from March with more guest clips, B-sides and unseen clips.

Feels like fuckin’ yesterday: The Shady One dove into some old footage and made a “Summer With Friends 2016” montage that provides a vivid snapshot of downtown Manhattan skateboarding just seven short years ago. Features pretty much anyone you would’ve seen in a Johnny Wilson video circa 2016.

A Static VI Primer — Jordan Trahan’s ‘Hurricane Party’ Part for Pepper Grip

Daily News October 16th, 2023 · 10:43 pm

With the Static VI premiere tour approaching its final leg, it’s probably not a spoiler to say that the video contains the Jordan Trahan part.

If you haven’t caught one of the premieres, Pepper Griptape just dropped what effectively serves as the mixtape before the album, full of clips that didn’t make the opus part. The quality of skateboarding is hardly throwaway though — ~~given the extensive filmer cred list at the end, you kinda gotta figure some of the clips got left out because the homie cam lensmanship wasn’t up to the famously high standard kept in Static vids~~ all the clips got filmed specifically for this nifty lil’ part. (QS exists on homie cam obvs, not disparaging it by any means.)
