Y’all Won

Monday Links on a Tuesday on account of the holiday…

Quartersnacks makes a Knicks hat, and then the Knicks make the Finals for the first time in 27 years. Coincidence? Definitely not.

“If you’re painting in fear, that’s a bad state.” Antonio Durao is a painter.

Jermaine Whittaker has a new part with his 5301 CLT crew down in Charlotte, made in tribute to their friend, Nate Stout. Some New York dispersed between Carolina crust.

Two new ones from the next gens out of Europe: “BUG OUTTA HERE” by Moritz Ueberall and the BUG crew out of Hamburg + “Rustiq” by Stellavision, a young crew out of Paris. There’s some Trung guest clips in there too ;)

Kilian Zehnder’s “4M” part has a good batch of New York footy at the start. Switch flip back noseblunt is a demonic thing to try at Lenox.

That’s Not A Website, Quartersnacks Is A Website

The Eifuku crew out of Japan dropped a New York trip edit, which has the #2 clip from last week’s Top 10 — but a lot of other gems too. That noseslide to boardslide on the barrier at Columbus Circle was wild. Also love it when visitors night skate; they even re-unlocked Times Square half-a-decade past it being a go.

Lots of spots inside empty malls and a fire bit of Hardbody Ross footy at the end in Matty Hilzenrath’s new NJ-scene edit, “Five On Pump Two.” Ross gotta go back for that hardflip. (Also shout out to his frontside flip tweak on the XL Tompkins bump-to-bar.)

“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.

Second City Hangover

The Do Or Die D.I.Y. in Bed-Stuy, Brooklyn is holding a GoFundMe for their next series of builds. If you don’t know about the space, Jenkem did a video profile of the crew earlier this year.

You gotta wonder what the reply rate would be if you hit your widest-spanning group chat suggesting you skate a …concreted-barrier-turned-spine under a bridge in Pittsburgh that you gotta shovel snow off of — at night. Those are the sorts of lifers found in Wyatt Nicholas’ One Jagged Loaf video out of Pittsburgh, with parts from Jay Pitser, Alex Nivison and Eli Campbell. Love the nollie flips in this one.

The Good, The Bad & The Knicks

J.P. Blair‘s next video, WHAT DID YOU EXPECT (sounds like a Drake album, tbh), premieres at Cinema Village on May 1, with showings at 8 + 8:45 P.M. Flyer here. 22 E. 12th Street. Not to be confused with Village East, also on E. 12th Street, but further east.

“STAGEDIVE420” is a really sick all-NYC montage featuring a lot of homies and some pro homies by Daniel Star. Gabriel Fortunato’s two pole-jam tricks were beautiful.

Our friend and longtime staple of the Duplex universe, Dan Lundy, has a new five-minute Florida edit featuring Andrew Wilson, some wild Joel Minholz footage, the Andrew crew, and a bearded Pedro Delfino somehow not snapping his board on that final clip.
