“Vert is back!” — Justin Bieber.

“Nicotine Riser Pads are the only riser pads that funnel nicotine through your board, into your toes, and right into your brain.” Bronze 56k pivoted and created a rock station: Bronze 56k, THE BOLT 🔩 The only station that can turn your three-day hangover into a five-day bender.

“It’s the difference between technical perfection and genuine joy.” The Main profiled Vincent Tsang, one of the original founders behind Dime and its evolution from YouTube hijinx to a revered Québécoise fashion house.

Timescan videographer, Rob Taro, got in front of the lens and filmed a part that connects his two homes of New Jersey and Japan for our friends at Grey.

Thanks to everyone who grabbed something from the webstore ❤️ Should be caught up on shipping orders soon. Available at skateshops worldwide now.

Everyone who has logged years skating Tompkins has an immediate answer to “what’s the craziest thing you’ve ever seen walking into the Tompkins bathroom?” Let’s see if the $5 million they put into renovating it keeps it from becoming the tenth ring of hell again. Now open!

“Yeah, I think that when you show everything, it allows more people in. There are people I know who don’t skate who have watched this and for them it’s like a hero’s journey or something: You’re watching someone go through something, and you can maybe sympathize with me, or maybe think I’m insane, but you get that I’m trying really hard to do something. You don’t need to understand the context for the tricks to get that.” The menswear SubStack, Blackbird Skyplane, got the elusive Bobby DeKeyzer on the horn for an interview about his new part.

Rest in Peace Young Scooter 💔

“The temperature in Central Park plummeted by 26 degrees within a single hour on Saturday afternoon.” Let this be a reminder to strategize when your group text is all horny to skate in t-shirts on the next 80-degree morning. Bros were running into H&M to buy thermals at 5 P.M.

The Bronze boys are back :) First new vid since November 2023! “***POST NUT CLARITY***” has a montage from the squad, a great lil’ Jordan Trahan section, a nollie hardflip that seemingly defies physics, and a full Grady Smith [!] part at the end.

“Talkin’ To Me” is the new edit from Jack Held and his crew. Filming Courthouse from above really does wonders at showing how monstrous of a spot it truly is. Almost didn’t recognize it in the first few seconds of the trick. Manhattan Bridge drop-in was insane too, and shout out to that dude’s speed control at Three Up Three Down.

One Week Until 7 P.M. Sunsets

“MAKING PLANS” is a homie video by the Thumbs NYC crew, which is prolifically good at avoiding the familiar trappings of Manhattan and Brooklyn in favor of a more northern exploration of the city. Great Olu Stanley part to close it out, and going to go ahead and say that Baked Dougie has some of the most fire flip tricks of 2025. Tre flips and nollie flips with personality. We need more of that.

Luca Mayer has a new part by Chris Patti for Skate Jawn. He might be elbow high right now, but those spots are all for the grown. Ender at the NYPL is very sick.

“THANK GOD IT’S NOT 2024 ANYMORE” is a seven-minute, all-New York montage by Shaquille Waite that’s a great time. Kickflip back lip banks rail + front three Broome Street + flip 5-0 / flip nosegrind + more, all fire. All to some 2015ish #skatevideohouse ;)

Mark Suciu by 📷 Cole Giordano via the new issue of Closer Skateboarding, which has that incredible Evan Wasser cover dropping in on that red cube behind Zuccotti. FWIW, Zered said he only went halfway up for his drop-in, before anyone gets all precious about it ;)

Tyshawn was on The Breakfast Club for a half-hour-long interview. It is obviously for a radio station, so you’re getting some radio station ass questions about skateboarding, but he doesn’t do a ton of interviews, so there you go. New THPS game otw just casually thrown in there, too.

“It’s crazy you are doing tricks you’ve never done 30 years later.” Never know when these come out because none of their posts are dated, but No Comply Network has a lllllloooooong interview with Zered Bassett, apparently from a few weeks ago. They cover everything from first getting into skating on Cape Cod, right through life after Alltimers.
