Stuck In Manny Jail

Daily News October 19th, 2026 · 12:00 am

SHIT’LL BUFF is a fire new homie video by Andrew Bawtinhimer. 80% New York spots, 20% …Georgia / Florida? (Could be off.) Lost of crust, lots of bangers. Josh Baker has an absolutely incredible ender section. The closing noseblunt, the ConEd trick, and the fact they managed to go through all that trouble to unlock a new route at Chinatown Manny, only to have the camera pan and you realize after all that, he’s still landing in cobblestones? Brilliant.

Young legend Eddie Vargas Jr. spoke to Skate Jawn about his switch ollie over the Copley Square Library Gap in Boston.

History’s three most important skaters.

The goat was on The Bunt last week 🐐 (The goat is Zered.)

Screamed at the screen on the Terminator ollie attempt. (27th + 1st for those whom “Terminator” might not mean anything.) Australia’s Hoddle Skateboards ripped through Toronto, Montreal and New York to bring home an exceptionally fun trip edit by Majick Templeton. Shaun Paul does the Mariano Mouse credits trick, the boys skate a ton of diamond-plate in New York rather than the obvious stuff, and is that the first Times Square trick since the pandemic footy deluge from there?

Skate Jawn interviewed our dog and future beekeeper, Brian Scherer. (Loosely-related reminder for everyone to read the 2018 New Yorker article about the guy in Red Hook who manufactured Maraschino cherries and what happened after the local honey turned red 🐝)

Preseason Already

Why the hell is there already a Knicks preseason game tonight? We just won last week…

Naquan Rollings posted up his edit from the L.E.S. Park skate jam dedicated to the memory of Marquis Blondel ❤️

“Cities hire ad agencies to craft entire campaigns to woo tourists. The skate shop video as a genre achieves the same thing powered by a handful of skaters placed somewhere around their late-teens and into their early-20s, a couple of responsible adults, and a steady flow of price-point shop decks.” Ian Browning wrote about the enduring power of skate shop videos for Closer. (Loosely related / ICYMI: A QS piece we did on the enduring power of shop …tees.)

Gabriel Fortunato with two lines @ the Fulton Street Subway stairs. Must be nice.

Fuck This Industry posted up a vlog from their trip through New England to Genuine Risk Lane. Includes Coles Bailey footage, yes.

GOODNIGHT IRENE is the new video from Dais Skate Co., and it might be the widest net of local spots maybe ever? Oh, going to The Bronx is deep for you this weekend? These dudes skate every single borough, upstate, Long Island, Jersey, Connecticut, Philly — literally everywhere. The filmer’s spotbook has gotta be crazy.

Of all the things QS has been a part of, being able to facilitate a bit of seed money to the D.I.Y. plaza next to the Trinity Repertory Theater in downtown Providence, Rhode Island (back in the days when Levi’s had a formal skate program and was putting $ toward’s D.I.Y’s) has to be the top of the list. Here are the renderings for what the latest expansion will be. Wow.
