#QSTOP10 — July 14, 2023

We’ve been on a bit of a summer sabbatical around here in the content realm of things, but they’re picking up soon — promise! ❤️

The best part of the #1 is that (spoiler, obvs) — apart from the fact that the thumbnail for the part is the ender, and it has him slamming on it in the intro — there’s no clear indication in his style of skating that there’s about to be an ender down 259 stairs (yes, actually had our intern count them off the big screen that Kenny uses on Inside the NBA.) And then he just, yeah. Wow.

Have a good one.

#QSTOP10 — June 23, 2023

23 years after the iconic 2000 Transworld photo issue Jamie Thomas cover, the gag has just become reality — see #1 for evidence. Some say that imagery has depreciated in our era of #so #much #media, but the actual photo of the trick is an incredible synopsis of how gigantic skateboarding has become in the time since then.

Otherwise, we have some pop shove magic, 540s at Blue Park, a Lucas Puig trick rivaling the work of the man himself, and of course — the Montreal Instagram plaza.

(Yes, the Nike video got deferred until next week in the interests of not having a full highlight reel countdown 24 hours after the video dropped.)

Happy birthday E.J! ❤️

Some fancy backside 5050 dismounts, unexpected tech, and Copenhagen reportage. Have a weird feeling that the trick in the #2 clip might’ve been in an old top ten, but our archivist is on vacation until late June.

Happy birthday Chuck! 🍾

Have a good one :)
