A look back at Pat Duffy's Plan B 'Questionable" Part
A look at the history of handrail pioneer Pat Duffy, infamous for his part in Plan B Questionable as well as numerous other standout parts released in the 90's. His CV is impressive, with parts being released consistently to this day, being seen in Plan B Code in 2022.
Hear stories of street skating history from the man himself on Storied.
Yuto Horigome Wins Tampa Pro 2024
Japan's Contest King Yuto Horigome takes another fat dub at Tampa Pro. My favourite part of his line is the feeble back tailslide across the chunky round rail. Smoother than silk as always.
The best trick contest was absolute carnage too! I'm going to go next year and do the NAC in my white tank top.
ROUGH CUT: Louie Lopez's "As You Wish" Part
Thrasher blessed us with sharing the process Louie takes when filming for his Cons 'As You Wish' Part.
Louie's everyone's favourite because he does mad shit with a smile on his face. This part's no exception, his spot selection and mindset are second to none.
SK8MAFIA : MICRO DOS
SK8MAFIA's second instalment of their micro skateboard series has come out and just like the first one, they went unnecessarily hard.
Absolute hammers thrown from the likes of Wes Kremer, Alexis Ramirez, TJ Rogers... Pat Duffy and John Hill? Cool
