JENKEM - Evolution of... NYC's Black Hubba

[@707lurks]

Give the person who thought up this series a raise

[@milesallen7339]

Ya and oral

[@chen7891]

please do more evolution of segments, they're great!

[@GrimReacts]

This is badass. Thanks jenkem

[@Rocket1026]

Hey guys Cruxal, here is the no bullsh*t guide to fs 360 the blubba

[@gr0gggg]

Cruxal wait can you skate?

[@sk8rMike360]

Really excited to go skate in New York for the first time ever in a few weeks. 49 yrs old, been skating since I was 10. "Skateboarding is the fountain of youth" - BK

[@Doatello1991]

Zered Bassett is criminally underrated. If you haven’t already, check out his “Vicious Cycle” and “State of Mind” parts. They are insane.

[@bustatreflip]

**He didn’t use the clip because he didn’t have enough speed rolling away** We need this philosophy in bmx

[@flybikesallday]

Jarad Taylor fuck yes we do

[@josho808]

180 feeble fakie bar out. Lands with no speed and freecoaster. *yeah let’s use that clip! 🤦🏻‍♂️

[@liquescence5678]

I remember my 1st time lip sliding Black Hubba about 10 years ago, brings back great memories.

[@rustyshackleford649]

how am i just now finding this channel?! great work man, 27 and still skating hard, love anything on the topic of the history of skating, keep it up bro

[@OneClipAtATime]

Visited this spot from Toronto, Canada during my NYC trip in May. Thought I’d be able to cop a couple tricks at least but it’s gnarlier in person than it looks in videos/photos. Much taller, and the edge is so rounded and the gaps in the marble are chunky as hell.

[@nolancammarata3595]

damn i was skating there today. defiantly keep this series going!

[@TheMr32hunter]

definitely

[@ThatSB]

People still skate in nyc? Right on! Thought it was all longboards and shit now. Every time someone says they skateboard or have a skateboard and I ask to ride it... they pull out some strange longboard/pennyboard

[@sirvelociraptor2590]

@@ThatSB hey longboarding is badass too, I used to be into downhill stuff. Different crafts that deserve respect, but yeah, I hate it when people call skateboards longboards and vice versa

[@OM3N1R]

more of this

[@AlexGordonMusic]

Jenkem...... you gotta keep these coming This series is so Fucking rad. NY ✌🏻 ❤️

[@MistaGeezy90]

Hit that on my bmx 14 years ago its deff a weird ledge to grind. But one of my favorite spots to this day is the Chinatown banks. I could ride those all day. No one likes them for some reason but I had so much fun riding there.

[@AlexWitkowski]

blubba. how clever :)

[@b5audis4life24]

Man I remember when me and my friends had a skate trip to NYC and we stumbled upon this spot on our way to Brooklyn banks. Front side nose slide felt so awesome there. Brooklyn banks just smelt like piss lol still iconic but it smelt haha.

[@paintnomics9523]

My uncle installed that, he wasnt too happy at first but then didn't mind after a while because it wasn't his problem lol

[@crookedtorto]

the Ben Kadow manual is fucking insane and Gilby kickflip over the top was forgotten also very hard!!

[@KenHigaG]

Looking forward to see more of this segment. Kind of dissapointed to not see some Pappalardo mention tho

[@EverythingsBeenDone]

This was rad! Good looking out.

[@AdioAurel]

Damn thx for bringing up Billy Rohan. Probably the first ever skateboarder interview I've read was from him in Titus 00 or 01 edition. Awesome guy!

[@CVJordan]

These segments are amazing. Thank you

[@tyronsmith7938]

this is the most interesting thing to watch, please make more of this

[@non_brewed_condiment]

Whenever they ask RB what his favorite is he always shouts out Zered being the switch GOAT, that's fucking awesome. He's the homie for sure.

[@AdamWersky]

This is the best series. Damn, so sick. Please keep em coming

[@Kangsteri]

Super interesting concept for series :) Thanks! Keep up the good work.

[@11HeathAdams]

Love the history! Wish we could openly skate anywhere with no hassle

[@petepete9831]

Olson's foot plant was the shit! But they didn't show it

[@TheGreenStripedTie]

Pete & Pete what's that from again ?

[@petepete9831]

Im Stripe was a spread in transworld when he got the cover I think it was in "cherry" also

[@goodmusic65]

Pete & Pete 917 vid

[@petepete9831]

Coriander oh yea my bad

[@mantwaan]

I see you everywhere from koth to this lol

[@mescaliiiiine]

I never realized the courthouse is just across the street from this

[@_musacci]

Where’s Nick Boserios nose grind tho???

[@panicking6304]

fuck yeah i been there before i ollied onto it from the bottom and just rolled back down. dope dope spot

[@adrianschaap]

Love these please keep making them!

[@dunnyify]

Love stuff like this keep them coming

[@CaliBreeeze]

Learn your skate history kids!! 🤘🏽✌🏼

[@BRILL-vb1jy]

Hubbas in general are such a weird architectural phenomenon. They serve no purpose other than being something to hold onto while using stairs, which handrails do much better and have got to be way cheaper. It's almost like they were put on earth just for street skating.

[@zew1414]

Little Andy! Wow haven't seen him since like 94

[@BetterSkateThanNever]

love it! 2 favs not shown: Cyrus fs noseblunt & Boserio fs ng

[@c0m4g1bb]

That was sick Good upload

[@BrandonBeckerSkateDate]

Heavy shit! I like seeing all the crazy tricks down these heavy spots! More videos like these please!

[@AChadWardenProduction]

That back noseblitz must be one of the most gnarliest thing this ledge has taken

[@maxiepattie85]

DOPE that casper at the end very nice!

[@anarchycastro]

those black things look like dropped coffins.

[@SacredFeline]

I didn't realize back noseblunt was ABD when Suciu did it.

[@dnarvarg]

yeah same

[@LieutenantGums]

Awesome video!

[@velvetarcade6017]

Willie Wilson did heelflip back noseslide... deserves to be on here

[@tommy_2_trill]

When he said "I've seen people get served on that ledge, it's too rounded" I imagine he easy thinking of one specific person who shall not be named 😂

[@MrBiggysmalls87]

This is legit. Took 3 NY trips in 04/05 was actually at flushing for New Year’s Eve to New Year’s Day. Saw Brian Brown at the Brooklyn banks when Reda was taking a picture of him doing a backside 180 fakie 50 180 out on the box that was on the banks. My friends and I were just out of the photo in Transworld. Good times man.

[@PsalmWellProduction]

did you know JENKEM is a drug made from fermented poo

[@matthewshinn5839]

sniff sniff

[@FadingGrin420]

"Sammy, you do not want to try this drug. It's really strong and not for everybody."

[@jordanrostron]

Butt hash!

[@mollywhoppedsouls_pvp]

Its good "shit"

[@SurfRawFiles]

Such sick videos , keep up the good work guys!

[@SirCharles246]

Dude this is really interesting and well.dine.. I dont even skate but it's dope

[@DavidMadeira29]

"The yellow bank? D'you mean the oven under my spare wheel, huh?!" 🗨😉⚠️

[@warphonesS22]

2:08 sick bs board f180 out. And where's the nose manual up it?

[@THEjoelivingstone]

1:49 dollars to donuts it was the Animal crew. They've done decades of work in improving NYC spots.

[@crookedtorto]

tks jenkem! more of this

[@Samisnoyce]

I dunno no one did it better than Alex Olson

[@w8lifter201]

I rode that ledge a long time ago and it was so much fun.. BMX did take the rail off lol

[@shirokumaotaku]

Freestyle Skateboarder Pete Betti Ollied up & did a 180 Truckstand on it

[@fad.mugger]

Siiick, dude. So cool to hear about freestylers skating street spots

[@soggylemons1052]

IVE BEEN THERE LIKE I USED TO GO EVERYDAY WHEN WE WENT AROUND TOWN

[@soggylemons1052]

I never seen anyone skating there?!

[@sammosaurusrex]

As someone who’s always been outside the culture, I just wanna say skate culture is blessed. I have yet to meet a skater I didn’t like. Seems like there is general positivity and support, a real rebellious counterculture worth investing in. Cheers

[@misterneckbreaker88]

So sad when spots get buried. A few local spots of mine got that treatment a nice 2 step courthouse by me they put metal fence in front so can't skate it. And round the corner was a sketchy 3 stair they put metal pole in the middle of landing and those bobbly surface at the top for blind people. And a 6 stair got the bobbly surface on top n bottom rip my spots

[@saintemory9556]

I'd rather have a spot buried than I'd have a blind person falling of a six stair...

[@M4TTYN]

bruh the casper off it to is the last clip damn nice way to end it but my god give us time to take that in holy shit s/o tyshawn jones 🙏🏽

[@henkforlife]

Don't forget that fs noseslide pop in by Daan!

[@chrissadler4583]

Really informative, really dope 🙏

[@NewWorldFungus]

Investment in intellectual art meets freedom of self expression. Hard and soft. A balance. You determine the difference.

[@somguy5035]

i tried to fs tail it back in 2002 and fell pretty hard. that was the one time i got to skate in nyc

[@z1lla4]

I would do it 1st try

[@noman90]

[@CaliBreeeze]

This series is epic and will be a solid part of skateboarding history for sure. You should do major spots in other states as well!! LA courthouse, SF China banks, etc.. anyways🙏🏼 thank you! Btw just found out what jenkem was.. lol fuck

[@desmondchristoper3049]

Do 3 block in philly

[@coloradicalskates1966]

Maybe an unpopular opinion but the nose bluntslide was so much gnarlier that he came of the normal pinch

[@douglasmarques8516]

Tiago Lemos- Nollie Flip Frontside Noseslide

[@Brettzcassette]

[@wowza935]

Clean ass tre to lip. Some videogame shit right there

[@Spychronic]

I wish I was more of a skate nerd. I can never remember exact tricks done in videos.

[@patrickrainey305]

y'all done Chris millic dirty, he went off the fountain itself

[@dlower23]

Skaters are, in the words of the great DJ Premier: "...like roaches, baby--neva dyin', always livin'"

[@The1337Mike]

If you’re looking for a dope spot to film a part and a videographer hmu

[@The1337Mike]
