Instagram is killing off the significance of skateboard magazines. It became apparent a few days ago while I was taking a poop. There I was in my bathroom—which should look like your bathroom with a pile of skate mags next to the toilet—scrolling away on Instagram.

Wow, that frontside pivot to fakie on the big deck-less quarter makes you shift in your seat. Scary. Street League has the best of Ishod for you. What from Ishod isn't the best, though? Did I already say that about the last Street League edit. Yep, they got a lot of my favorites in there. The ender is a straight up OMG.

Thrasher just put the entire SOTY Naawwsty video up. For some reason, these things stick out in my mind: Grant Taylor's switch flip, the unreal casual skateboarding stuntery of Cory Kennedy, and wondering how much of a production it must be getting that crew from point A to point B while on that tour. Catch Koston, Ishod, Brock, and more in this one.
