All things considered, the falls section at the middle of the latest Melodi video probably takes it for most-discussed piece of skateboarding in the past week — more than any actual make. Skate videos are all about making you feel something, yaknow. Def felt the pain permeate through the screen on those.
Still trying to figure out the way the body contorts v.s. the board on #2.
Have a good one.
First week of the Brooklyn Banks reopening recap content, more IG clips than usual, and a reminder of that time we went to Barcelona with Dani Lebron and Tufty. Good times. Have a good weekend.
Nike’s “Gassed Up” video (who remembers the turtle dancing to “Gassed Up?”), a nollie backside flip for the ages, a Cyrus trick that Cyrus hadn’t done yet …not by Cyrus, and some nice hardflips.
#5 should’ve been #1.
The QS office will be observing the three-day weekend. QS returns on Tuesday, May 30th. Have a good one ❤️
Not entirely the WKND video, but a lot from the WKND video.
Really wish there was an angle from the bottom of the bank on the #1 to emphasize how nuts it is for anyone who hasn’t been there, but oh well :)
For something beyond the week’s marquee project, you should peep Vague and Vans’ “MUSH” video, which is full of the worst ground ever compiled into a skate video, and the people who make it work ;)
Everyone’s “#__ should’ve been #1” comments every week are always correct, but don’t wanna hear it this week. ← That link is a spoiler, obviously.
Shout out to longtime QS reader Bob DeNiro on the birth of his 7th child! Big week for all the O.Gs.
Have a good one ❤️
