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.

Winter X-Games? We Have Winter X-Games At Home.

Max Hull’s Hell Yeahh (Too Nice To Skate) is a masterpiece of unc skateboard cinema. It includes Gabe Tennen[‘s Wonderful Horrible Life], Conor Prunty’s salute to ten years since “422,” a Joe Scordo “My War,” Sadie BGPs, a full Luke Koch part, and so much more. If you are in your unc years or even on the cusp of unc-ness and in the midst of finding excuses to not skate on a weekend or just hit the skatepark for an hour, seeing Gabe shred should be inspo enough to commit to relearning some of your lost tricks this spring.

A reminder that Tricolor Patinetas’ 1999 video out of Mexico is essential viewing. Find your friend with the biggest screen you know, invite some friends over, bring some drinks and watch it together this week.

Skateboarders are fascinated with curation and being “tasteful.” The bag of ten or so tricks, done incredibly well. Not looking like you’re trying too hard. The masterful assembly of an outfit for each clip. The perfect song that flows with each cut. Saying just enough without over-explaining or becoming a recluse.

T-Funk’s financial advice to his future children: “Don’t look up to me.” He thinks Tom Scharr is trying to be Bob Burnquist, but Bob Burnquist says he himself wants to be Tom Scharr. Satan’s Drano siphoned the Hot Ones format through a satanic offshoot of 90s public access TV for their show, The Last Supper, and their first guest is Tristan Funkhouser.

Melodi dropped a quick edit for their Spitfire collab. Mostly New York clips, with a lot of homies. Quinn, Coles, Gabe ‘n them :)
