Keep It Skater

“Type III Fun” is a new, all-NYC video by John Lamair featuring the youngs hucking into rocks, going back for that white marble drop-in at World Trade that everyone gets washed on, and being shocked by their own inward heelflips. Great vibes the whole way through ✨

“I got an 8.25. I got Zeroes in the car!” A watershed moment for Village Psychic’s “Lurking With Lou” series: 14 years (!!!!!!!!) after Lurker Lou allegedly ruined Matt Millitano’s life by focusing his board on Slap’s One In A Million show [according to the internet], they link up to sesh spots outside of New York skateboarding’s oft-treaded zones. Joke’s on the internet, because they were friends the whole time. Also, even as someone who has known Lou for a long time, I completely took for granted that he was 28 in that show. Beards, man.

Kiernan McGinnis has a new part out for Grey Skate Mag that’s largely filmed in Philly. The control on that bank-to-rail kickflip back fifty is too good. And if you missed the nollie backside flip at the Lily Pads [R.I.P.] from last weeks’ top ten, it’s worth a loop or ten.

“Excuse Me Ladies, Sorry To Bother You, But We’re Out Here In Dimes Square Trying To Get Opinions On The Latest Tom Schaar Part. Is Vert In Fact, Back?”

VICTOR’S VOYAGE ⛵️

“Vert is back!” — Justin Bieber.

“Nicotine Riser Pads are the only riser pads that funnel nicotine through your board, into your toes, and right into your brain.” Bronze 56k pivoted and created a rock station: Bronze 56k, THE BOLT 🔩 The only station that can turn your three-day hangover into a five-day bender.

“It’s the difference between technical perfection and genuine joy.” The Main profiled Vincent Tsang, one of the original founders behind Dime and its evolution from YouTube hijinx to a revered Québécoise fashion house.

Timescan videographer, Rob Taro, got in front of the lens and filmed a part that connects his two homes of New Jersey and Japan for our friends at Grey.

The Quartersnacks webstore is now live with spring goods ✨ Includes a lot of much-requested reissues of classic items (Diner & Lenox tees, Track Club crews, etc.) Also available at local skateshops worldwide. Photo via our friends @ Laquer. Thanks for your continued support in helping us do what we do ❤️

“Salvaging the ruins, slabs of granite were shipped across the ocean, turning rubble into something both relic and resurrected. These materials were then integrated into a new spot, giving rise to a form of skateboarding ‘spolia,’ [which] refers to materials that are salvaged from one structure and reintegrated into another whether for ideological reasons, practical purposes or both.” Skate Bylines has a #longform piece on the increasingly common phenomenon of classic skate spots being resurrected.

Our friends at Duplex down in Florida have a new edit up on the Thrasher site, and they continue to find more and more spots in their backyard. Jace’s opening clip is insane.

Adding Bobby DeKezyer’s “BOBCBC” part, filmed entirely at the CBC building in downtown Toronto (croski!), to the Quartersnacks One-Spot Part Map 📍 Shout out to Tomas and Bobby for actually making skateboarding look incredibly difficult, even for someone who is …incredibly good at it. We need that dose of reality from time to time ;)

Pittsburgh spots make ConEd Banks look like MACBA. Mini ramps with tree branches for coping, banks that need ten sheets of plywood to get to, and cracks obfuscated by six-pack holders all in Justin Funk’s “SCORCHER” video, presented by our friends over at Vague.

“A split second after I took that photo both of those cats, like, mauled Aaron. He was trying to hold them together and it just wasn’t working. They scratched him so hard he was bleeding out of his forearm. He was over rounding them up, like, ‘I don’t think it’s gonna happen…'” Skate Bylines interviewed the mind behind Heckride for some B.T.S. stories and inspo talk around his photo book of skaters and their pets. Wishbone and Hashbrown are really good pet names.

“MAKING PLANS” is a homie video by the Thumbs NYC crew, which is prolifically good at avoiding the familiar trappings of Manhattan and Brooklyn in favor of a more northern exploration of the city. Great Olu Stanley part to close it out, and going to go ahead and say that Baked Dougie has some of the most fire flip tricks of 2025. Tre flips and nollie flips with personality. We need more of that.

Luca Mayer has a new part by Chris Patti for Skate Jawn. He might be elbow high right now, but those spots are all for the grown. Ender at the NYPL is very sick.

“THANK GOD IT’S NOT 2024 ANYMORE” is a seven-minute, all-New York montage by Shaquille Waite that’s a great time. Kickflip back lip banks rail + front three Broome Street + flip 5-0 / flip nosegrind + more, all fire. All to some 2015ish #skatevideohouse ;)
