QS goods arriving to skateshops now. Arriving internationally next week. Available via our webstore next Monday, May 4th. Photo via Laaaaabor ❤️

J.P. Blair‘s next video, WHAT DID YOU EXPECT (sounds like a Drake album, tbh), premieres at Cinema Village on May 1, with showings at 8 + 8:45 P.M. Flyer here. 22 E. 12th Street. Not to be confused with Village East, also on E. 12th Street, but further east.

STAGEDIVE420” is a really sick all-NYC montage featuring a lot of homies and some pro homies by Daniel Star. Gabriel Fortunato’s two pole-jam tricks were beautiful.

Our friend and longtime staple of the Duplex universe, Dan Lundy, has a new five-minute Florida edit featuring Andrew Wilson, some wild Joel Minholz footage, the Andrew crew, and a bearded Pedro Delfino somehow not snapping his board on that final clip.

Long Day At The Content Factory

🏀 Knicks x Quartersnacks ’47 Brand hats available in our webstore 🏀

Johnny Cumaoglu with the first Small Banks clip heard around the world DMs + ok, so now we need a Shintaro Hongo one-spot part at the Brooklyn Banks, ASAP + @banks_at_six Small Banks reportage has begun 🧱 (“You wanna skate a curb in Central Park??? We’re going to the Banks, buddy! Six o’clock!”)

We are a long way from “cherry.” Last week coincided with two profiles of its stars and their grown-up lives: Christian Kerr profiled Tyshawn Jones for Hypebeast (“This is probably my last interview for a while. We’re going to let the skating talk. Then when the skating is done, they’ll ask for more interviews”) + Sage Elsesser was profiled by the High Snobiety magazine.

No Spots In Spotsylvania

Adding Ratscavage’s CURB video to the Quartersnacks One-Spot Part Map 📍 CURB is a 27-minute video filmed exclusively at the 12th and Monmouth curbs / D.I.Y. in Jersey City. Heard the spot called Moishe’s ages ago, but haven’t really been tapped in with what’s going on with Jersey City skateboarding in recent times. Calling it Moishe’s on the map because “Oh jeez, I worked for Moishe, I worked for Mayflower…”

Back tail shove sorcery on the ledge between the two banks at ConEd plus more in the new Late Nite Stars throwaway edit — hopefully a hint of a new full-length on the way.

The community board approved the construction of the Brooklyn Skate Garden in Mount Prospect Park, albeit the scaled-down version that is half the size of the original plan.

Time For The Real Sports

There comes a time in every skate tank’s life where it ceases to merely get you TO the spot, and it …becomes the spot. The rubicon has been crossed.

Dime x Quartersnacks available now ⬅️

“Chris Joslin never did no shit like this.” Jamal Smith is back in front of the camera, mic’d up at the skatepark …in the snow. Can’t wait for episode two.

Return of the Genius” is a new eight-minute edit by Carlo Campos of the Genius crew. It is a beautiful inferno of absolutely insane manny combos, all filmed in New York. Anyone confused by the madness within should find solace in the ancient proverb: the chaos of the youth’s manual tricks is reflective of the world they have inherited from their elders. (Should’ve been it’s own post, but last week was a hectic backend one at the office 😵‍💫)

Alexis Lacroix having an allotment of ohhhhh yeaaaaahhhh’s in Dime videos is very funny.

We have a small capsule with our friends at Dime dropping this Saturday, March 21.

Our good friend Mike Gigliotti was the latest guest on The Bunt. Some clips from that 2007-era push to make a shop homie Supreme video that he mentions can be found in this old 240p edit by Sam Salganik. [Alternate SoundCloud link.]

And on that note, it makes sense that they pivoted away from the homies lurking around Lafayette Street in 2007, and started paying Tyshawn as they headed into the ”cherry era five years later. Complex has a half-hour video interview with Tyshawn. “Stevie Williams or Nick Trapasso?”
