Chicken For Gang

Ty Beall via Skate Jawn #68 and his part in Chrome Zone (2023), on account of New York moving towards discontinuing the green shed scaffolding, in favor of a less-ugly alternative. Can’t think of a ton of tricks on these things short of this and Jerry’s 5050 in Bag of Suck, but good riddance.

“I’m mainly happy that Tompkins is still there, it’s repaved, kids still go there, and it still has a similar vibe.” Slam City Skates has a pretty awesome longform interview with Sage Elsesser.

“Holllllyyyy shitttttt. Is that Jahmir? Yeah! And he’s making me listen to Bronze 56k Radio ALL DAY.” Jahmir Brown provides the guest mix on the latest installment of Bronze 56k Radio. The Graham Denver commercial is so fucking funny. 20 minute mark. Nooooo.

Quick thirty second Hardbody commercial with Antonio + Hjalte is giving video magazine ad vibes. Told E.J. this was too short, and his response was, “Well, the last video was too long.” New Hardbody stuff live on their shop + your local.

“Interstate” is a sick eight-minute video by Spencer Newman and the youngs, based around Stamford, CT, but with a good bit of New York footage in it. Yelled at the screen @ the slam on that new brick thing by Domino Park + it’s heartwarming to see the “Sphere” [Gold & Platt by CIA Ledge] endure through two decades of homie videos. Titles are coming back, baby!

“If you’re listening to all this hip-hop, why the fuck are you editing your videos to Joy Division?” Farran Golding profiled Paul Young for Closer as he was winding up production on Down By Law + included a video supplement on the art of selecting music for skate videos.

See You At The Cup

Public RSVP for the 2024 Quartersnacks Cup is now live. Entrance is still subject to venue capacity, but RSVP is required for entry. Be sure to fill out a bracket of your predictions and share it with us on social media 🏆

The temperatures outside are dropping, so threw some shorts on sale in the webstore for the crib or your Miami trip or whatever 🛍

📍 Added Satan’s Drano’s “HESKWON” video, filmed entirely at the Koreantown Banks / federal courthouse in downtown L.A. to the Quartersnacks One-Spot Part Map, and it’s probably the most unhinged entry to date: a onetime two-second bust spot that got overrun by skateboarders promoting a hot sauce company on the weekends with an ender where a skater slappies a curb and a dude flys off a ten-foot drop on a dirt bike over him into the street straight toward the cameraman? That’s Hollywood, baby!

A Tim Achille part opens up William Wishard’s Jersey scene video, Just For Kicks. Includes a shared Andy Bautista and German Nieves section at the end.

“Everything hard to get or expensive isn’t necessarily any more fulfilling. If caviar was $1 a pound, I don’t think anybody would want it.” Jenkem interviewed Antonio Durao about the move to Hardbody, sponsorship history, and his beautiful perspective on this thing we call life ❤ ️

Ted Barrow runs through the history of the Courthouse-Blubba-Columbus Park triangle that sits at the site of the once worst-slum in America — and now makes up probably 25% of New York skate coverage — for the latest episode of Thrasher‘s “This Old Ledge.”

Our friends at Place Mag and Daniel Paese tried to answer one of humanity’s most confounding questions via video essay. No, not are we alone in the universe, but the eternal: “why don’t you skate at the skatepark?”

“There also might be a slight difference in the value of technicality. I think a nollie crook means more to us out here than it may out west to you.” Heckride has a #longform interview with the man behind the lens of many of your favorite clips, Paul Young.

“Then I counted Tyshawn’s part and he only has 32 tricks in Blessed which was his S.O.T.Y. part. It made me realize that it’s not necessarily the quantity of tricks that makes a part good.” Korahn Gayle chats about some of his biggest influences for Slam City Skates’ “Visuals” series.

Can’t imagine many local residents are bummed about this, but something for the “Summer Trip to New York” video-makers to keep in mind: you’re not gonna have an easy time getting an Airbnb in New York.
