Regardless of what the nerds in labcoats may say about solstices and all that nonsense, in my book, the first day it hits 90 degrees, summer begins. It’s hotter than a muhfuckah outside, and I am currently in the midst of recovering from a hot-pocketed ankle and sitting out this first mini-heatwave, so here’s an update if you’re waiting for the sun to go down…

It’s pretty safe to say that skateboarding has essentially become a homoerotic art gallery, so as apart of our “Bringing Sketchy Back” movement, we’ve taken it upon ourselves to start lowering standards for all of your favorite New York spots — in hopes of making it acceptable to film there when you’re not capable of switch varial heel noseblunts. First up, is the much beloved Flushing Meadows Park, which Pryce, Zach, Skinhead Mike, Isak, Brengar and I recently ambushed with a barrage of “below-average” and “not serious” tricks in order to get the art fags all uptight in their slip-ons. You can observe the nonsense here.

Anybody in the market for a Century Optics Mark 1 lens for a VX1000? I’m selling mine.

Normally, I don’t post spot updates that I can’t confirm from firsthand experience, but this is coming from a reliable source. Lenox Ledges (AKA the only decent ledge spot you can skate during the daytime in Manhattan) is now officially a bust. Just in time for summer.

I’m about a week late on this, but Steve put up a new montage over at Square Films.

Now that the most known unknowns have become pop culture darlings due to their MTV show, most of you are probably going to get all riled up with your insecurities insiting that they “sold out” or how “they used to be better before they became mainstream,” but as far as I’m concerned, this new song with Lil’ Jon and Pat is one of the greatest things ever recorded (and it has, bar-none, the greatest hook in Hypnotize Minds history). This song with Pat and Paul over the “Hustlin’” beat is also bound to put a smile on any hater’s face as well.

I’ll see you when it goes below 80 again.
