#’s On That Board

Stafhon Boca and a fan. Nah but for real, the Birdman in a yellow suit is 🔥

“In a remarkable gesture of support for grassroots skateboarding, renowned skateboard designer Antonio Durao has fulfilled a long-held dream by donating a collection of his Hardbody deck models and essential skateboarding gear to the Uganda Skateboard Society.” Pretty sure E.J. designed those, but a beautiful collaboration. S.O.T.Y. shit. 🏆

No Jeff Cecere video this Christmas, but he’s working on one 🎅

Fuck This Industry made some decks, and to commemorate, dropped a full Myles Underwood part to much critical acclaim. (“Dis might be more influential then the el toro flip 💯.”)

Another 2025 TJ Rogers part?! Yep, Another 2025 TJ Rogers part!

Dubbed by Boil the Ocean as “the patron saint of clipping up,” this man from Tim Savage and co’s Free Game video has our vote ❤️

Readers Poll voting opens later today… 🗳

Max Hull put together a great recap of the Light Rail Riot / Friendsgiving Jam at the Hole Bowl in Newark. Kinda figure these guys are going to be doing these every year. (For those who don’t know, the Hole Bowl is the successor to the belated Newark Shorty’s D.I.Y.)

SOAP OPERA is a new Rochester scene video from Michael Breitmaier (you may recall his Memoir video from 2023), featuring parts from Adam Kerrick, Justin Grzechowiak, David Kimball and more. Lots of beautiful VX upstate crust, some downstate trips, and Euro excursions. Something about that Berlin manny pad spot feels like it’d fit in upstate New York.

Vague has a premiere of Neil Herrick’s part in Tristan Mershon’s new video, Singer Tower. Loved the Police Plaza choreography and the unlocking of the out ledge at Brick Nine.

Summer Gotta End Someday Yo

East River Park south of Delancey opened on Friday. This means that the bridge that once lead to Alligator Ledge is back, although — brace yourself for bad news — it will not feature an Alligator Ledge. It does, however, include some suburban parking lot manny pads.

📅 1) Naquan & crew crew are hosting a skate jam with Thrasher at the Red Hook Skatepark tomorrow (9/9) @ 3 P.M. Flyer here. 2) Asics will be premiering their new video by Jacob Harris, A Guided Tour, at Palace Bar in Greenpoint this Thursday @ 8 PM. 21+. Flyer here.

“Will Steve Rodriguez and Gotham Park ultimately need to petition city hall to install a higher-yet rail or add several kinks? Does Antonio Durao’s membership in the rarified club of street handrail switch backside noseblunters put him on track to join the yet-more exclusive cadre of street handrail switch kickflip backside noseblunters?” …yeah, um, about that. Boil the Ocean wrote about how good the skateboarding going down at the Banks 2.0 is.

Summer Starts in August

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…)

QS goods available now on our webstore. Thanks for your support as always 💙 Available now in U.S. QS accounts. Arriving in Canada, Australia, Europe and Asia this week. (Photo above via our friends at No Comply in Austin, Texas.)

Mike Sass and his crew came together to make another PFP video. Teaser here. PFP6 premieres at Lou’s Athletic Club this Saturday, July 20th @ 8:30 P.M.

Dalton Palacio and his crew (the 700k crew) dropped a new video entitled “Mahogany.” Mostly L.A. clips with a bit of New York mixed in. Last part was crazy good. And the closing bigspin on a certain Chinatown set was 10/10.
