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?”

Summer Gotta End Someday Yo

East River Park south of Delancey opened on Friday. This means that the bridge that once lead to Alligator Ledge is back, although — brace yourself for bad news — it will not feature an Alligator Ledge. It does, however, include some suburban parking lot manny pads.

📅 1) Naquan & crew crew are hosting a skate jam with Thrasher at the Red Hook Skatepark tomorrow (9/9) @ 3 P.M. Flyer here. 2) Asics will be premiering their new video by Jacob Harris, A Guided Tour, at Palace Bar in Greenpoint this Thursday @ 8 PM. 21+. Flyer here.

“Will Steve Rodriguez and Gotham Park ultimately need to petition city hall to install a higher-yet rail or add several kinks? Does Antonio Durao’s membership in the rarified club of street handrail switch backside noseblunters put him on track to join the yet-more exclusive cadre of street handrail switch kickflip backside noseblunters?” …yeah, um, about that. Boil the Ocean wrote about how good the skateboarding going down at the Banks 2.0 is.

On The Sunny Side Of The Street

Mark Suciu by 📷 Cole Giordano via the new issue of Closer Skateboarding, which has that incredible Evan Wasser cover dropping in on that red cube behind Zuccotti. FWIW, Zered said he only went halfway up for his drop-in, before anyone gets all precious about it ;)

Tyshawn was on The Breakfast Club for a half-hour-long interview. It is obviously for a radio station, so you’re getting some radio station ass questions about skateboarding, but he doesn’t do a ton of interviews, so there you go. New THPS game otw just casually thrown in there, too.

“It’s crazy you are doing tricks you’ve never done 30 years later.” Never know when these come out because none of their posts are dated, but No Comply Network has a lllllloooooong interview with Zered Bassett, apparently from a few weeks ago. They cover everything from first getting into skating on Cape Cod, right through life after Alltimers.
