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.

Dubbed by Boil the Ocean as “the patron saint of clipping up,” this man from Tim Savage and co’s Free Game video has our vote ❤️

Readers Poll voting opens later today… 🗳

Max Hull put together a great recap of the Light Rail Riot / Friendsgiving Jam at the Hole Bowl in Newark. Kinda figure these guys are going to be doing these every year. (For those who don’t know, the Hole Bowl is the successor to the belated Newark Shorty’s D.I.Y.)

SOAP OPERA is a new Rochester scene video from Michael Breitmaier (you may recall his Memoir video from 2023), featuring parts from Adam Kerrick, Justin Grzechowiak, David Kimball and more. Lots of beautiful VX upstate crust, some downstate trips, and Euro excursions. Something about that Berlin manny pad spot feels like it’d fit in upstate New York.

Vague has a premiere of Neil Herrick’s part in Tristan Mershon’s new video, Singer Tower. Loved the Police Plaza choreography and the unlocking of the out ledge at Brick Nine.

Someone was like, “Do y’all still have that hat?!” It’s on the webstore, buddy ✅

Pero Šimić has a sick new two-minute part for Obey by Naquan Rollings, which consists of all New York clips. That ollie onto the board-width ledge was some Lennie Kirk shit, and the pillar rides at the Banks are a new dimension.

“The sheer audacity of plunking a switch backside noseblunt down the Brooklyn Banks nine-stair rail in the middle of an edit has previously been discussed.” Boil the Ocean goes through the potential 2025 S.O.T.Y. contenders. When’s the last time a vert skater was the frontrunner?

Sexhippies new video, which is a dive into the scene in western Massachusetts and a bit beyond, just went live. “Earth Mafia” has a fire opening part from Eddie Vargas Jr., appearances from Andrew Wilson, Cooper Qua, Zac Gavin and many other familiar faces.

N.B.D. alert 🚨

Naquan uploaded an edit from the Roadkill x Thrasher skate jam that went down at the Red Hook Skatepark this past Tuesday.

Get ready for an hour of O.G. Respect™: Living Proof Radio got Harry Jumonji on for an interview live from Brazil. “If you fall at the Brooklyn Banks, you look like a mechanic.”

There are a lot of banger recaps from Glory Challenge, but Naquan made the best one of all-around vibes.

Naquan also made a sick mini Amir Denis part. Smith at Cadman was lovely.

The summertime Tompkins edits have started to come in as the high-season winds down: 1) “$$$seven” by [yes, third link in a row] Naquan Rollings, which includes a triumphant return-to-NY back tail by Coles Bailey on the most inventive T.F. obstacle of the New Asphalt Era. 2) Japanese homies Joetaro Saito + Aoto Yoroi doing some of the flowiest lines all throughout the park by Shaquille Waite.
