Quartersnacks Will Be Replacing Anna Wintour At Vogue, Effective Immediately
That Condé Nast expense account been hitting this week 🍾🦪
Peter Sidlauskas eulogized the Brooklyn Banks Burger King at 55 Fulton Street — perhaps the most notorious fast-food establishment in New York skate history. They should restore it as phase four of the Banks after the Small Banks.
While Ted and Thrasher work on a “This Old Ledge” about the Banks Burger King, they dropped their Flushing episode to hold you over. James Reres shoutout was important. Kinda feel compelled to remind everyone that Rob Gonyon backside flipped the six and Antonio switch frontside flipped it 12+ years ago. Also liked Skateboarder‘s “15 Things You Didn’t Know About Flushing” thing so much that it’s the header photo for it on the spot page.
Still Here
You realize all that skate blogging was worth it when you see a 2025 teenager skating Reggaeton Ledges to peak Young Jeezy. “A Third Perspective” is a sick 15-minute, all-NYC homie video from Alim Orahovac and the youngs. [Being in a homie video where one of your friends varial flips and another tre flips the Flushing grate is a mandatory rite of passage in life.]
“The video is called ‘Still in Atlanta’ because of fools who moved to New York or L.A. and were on me about staying here, saying shit like ‘Atlanta is dead.'” Jenkem spoke to Atlanta skate scene ambassador, Justin Hearn, about the ATL scene and his new video.

Our buddy Lui Elliott’s family lost their home in the tragic fires currently happening in Southern California. Please donate if you have the means to help them out. ❤️
The best bits of skate content from the past week are Peter Sidlauskas’ dives into skate spot lore of yesteryear, specifically spots that have fallen into the ashes of time via redevelopment: L train roof bank, the Wythe Street ledge, and of course, the Autumn Bowl.
The youngs rip, man. “Looking To Be” is a ten-minute video by Chris Argueta featuring the new gen stacking in New York. All NY clips, with Three Up Three Down continuing to endure as New York’s greatest skate spot, generation after generation.
It’s Supposed To Bubble

HEADLOCK is a new brand pushing the Atlanta skate scene, and Justin Hearn got behind the lens to make the inaugural edit of his crew for it, aptly titled “In A Headlock.”
W O W. Our friends at 4PLY ran all the data to quantify why Yuto Horigome is The One. “He doesn’t have a single “go-to” trick. He’s got the talent to ‘go-to’ all the tricks.”
Just a great, old-fashioned hometown skateshop video part: Hollywood Martinez for Southside Skateshop x Spitfire Wheels to a Pimp and Bun classic 🥲 “We wanna send this one out to Whodini.”
