What a week to skate a curved ledge (and/or curb.)
Appearances from three of four front-running S.O.T.Y. candidates + if you don’t “get” the #1 (spoiler ahead), please consult the photo. Thx.
THERE’S ONLY A FEW HOURS LEFT TO VOTE IN THE QS READERS POLL! Voting ends at 2 P.M. [E.S.T.] today.
Have a good one ❤️
And just like that, it’s December 1st.
A week where #1 couldn’t be anything else. Unless of course Tenzin did a nollie *540* bigspin heelflip! ☺️
Year-in-Review content season + all that comes with it starts next week ;)
An absolutely wild week where it was impossible to squeeze everything into ten slots. East coast bias was definitely in effect — well, apart from the April x Nike edit and Loooouuuuuu.
Have a good one ❤️
“Wait, didn’t Frankie already back noseblunt The Grate™?”
Yeah, in 2021 — to fakie in a “Real Street” part. But really like the idea of going back to re-do one of the wildest things ever done over The Grate™ to regular two years later, kinda like “once more, for the people in the back,” rather than letting it fade into obscurity inside of a Real Street part.
Otherwise, some Atlantic Drift, some Coda video, and the rare Ryuhei Kitazume appearance where he isn’t at #1.
And you should really go watch César Bijnens’ “Fine Go Skate With Your Stupid Friends” part that our friends at Place premiered. So many wild European spots and third-eye-open approaches to skating them, beyond the highlighted tailslide that aptly gets replayed three times.
AND YES, this got filed before Trevor Thompson’s Static VI part dropped on Thrasher and also before the awesome Leo Bodelazzi Venture part on Free.
People will sometime’s be like, “Everyone’s seen the intro already!” on weeks when the intro is particularly #viral (1M views and counting…) but try and find a funnier thing to happen on a skateboard this week.
Otherwise: a frantic tre flip, a pair of emphatically stomped tre flips, a lot from the Evisen x Pass~Port video, and incredible backside 180 nosegrind form.
