This Old Ledge: New York Courthouse

[@Chocofur]

please never stop this series, please

[@dambroangling2828]

My war is best

[@BeardedDante]

We need Ted to this series at every legendary spot in the U.S.

[@evangundlach9538]

Legit

[@skhateboarding6631]

right, only in the U.S.!

[@thejman3489]

Check out the Dern Brothers. They have a series going where they show up at the spot, talk about tricks that went down, and get interviews from skaters that absolutely destroyed that spot.

[@BeardedDante]

@@thejman3489 for sure! I just need some architectural history as well. For the nerd in me

[@oOTevtronOo]

@@thejman3489and then they start dropping bangers on the spot themselves

[@4tinjo]

Best series ever.

[@GettingHyphy]

Think i still like My War more but this is def up there

[@ChesterApricot]

I love how he speaks as to what the architecture represent in the historical context but also the present sense and how it also relates to skating

[@turtleboypurp]

dude crushes this series, always love the side piece history of these spots that isn't related to skating. Really ties it altogether.

[@joseortega9519]

Good narrator and cool history 📜 lesson.

[@matt2993]

THIS SERIES MUST GO ON FOREVER

[@mattlarsen8585]

Very refreshing, nice to see skate media that isn’t just a day in the life or a boring interview

[@jptothetree]

For real!

[@andrewkissel741]

Best series, hands down

[@FreedomStateFSS]

Idk, dern bros got a great series

[@bocarter2794]

Definitely copied dern bros

[@dambroangling2828]

Nah my war

[@offbrandaphid9112]

Room for both I reckon

[@billytheblockomus]

@@FreedomStateFSS they cool and all but they just name off tricks, ted is actually a great story teller

[@sukice]

Thank you ted

[@collinrobertwillardson7916]

I will pay a monthly service fee for more video content like this. I love history and skateboarding, and combining the two is the best thing in the world

[@SkateMediaChannel]

I've just binged the entire series. Please keep making these. Send this man around the world. No spot left behind.

[@NatGreenOnline]

I always leave each episode smarter because of Ted. Such a great series.

[@flacyyyttem]

Will probably comment on every single one of these for the analytics, cause man this is so good and so worthwhile. Thanks for all the hard work Ted and everyone involved.

[@Jeremyramone]

An absolute work of art. Thanks "Understanding history is crucial, we as humans must grow together into something like a single family, for this we must become familiar with each other, and this means becoming familiar with each other's history, since we do not live just in the immediate present, we live in a mental time stream remembering the past and looking forward, with hope, or fear, to an oncoming future.

[@sandhanitizer15]

I can watch these videos for hours. Keep 'em coming so we all have a sick catalog to sit and look back on. Shred on 🤘

[@froggeryjones]

Love the random lady crossing the street at 9:08 applauding Cyrus dropping a banger!

[@unseenforcs]

I would pay money to see a regular series like this that covered more spots. It is so well done..

[@eastcoasttone3952]

Legendary skating mixed with a history lesson of NYC. I love it!

[@XgremyX]

Skateboarders need this content. I'm so stoked Ted and thrasher are producing this series. SO GOOD!

[@artemface]

The confluence of skating and public space/architecture is just the best and Ted Barrow does an UNREAL job. Thank you Ted!!!

[@Jb-px3nx]

As a man who thoroughly enjoys skateboarding and history I greatly appreciate your video!

[@futuristpictures]

Love this series - both for finding out history I didn't know, and for showing the world how deeply skateboarders care about the heritage of spaces & places in our cities. Props to all filmers & photographers for creating an archive to tell these stories!

[@addielmartinez9120]

Thanks Ted

[@SelfTappersnWranglers]

Absolutely love this series, bringing history and skating together like this is just perfection.

[@mattbushnell7885]

As many of us skaters turn middle-aged, this quality content proves very interesting. The man knows his stuff!

[@JakeBorchenko]

Wishing for many more episodes. Absolutely love this series.

[@phillyboy150]

The girl clapping after Cyrus landed is just art!

[@DoomSplitta]

Another absolute banger. This and My War are Goated.

[@RollForever88]

East coast skating even to this day still captures the essence of what made the 90’s and 00’s skating so great. I can really appreciate that. Cool vid.

[@SuperCezaa]

We need a thousand more videos like this one!

[@farraymusic4618]

I love the history background!

[@jordanwilbert_]

Got all the bikers watching these series too! So good!

[@eddie6two6]

Yessss. Best series. Love the history lesson

[@raymondramdass633]

Incredible episode, extremely well produced and edited! Thank you Thrasher and Ted please keep this series going!!

[@Nomad_Skateboarding]

This series is awesome. Shout out Ted getting in front of the camera. Well done Thrasher 🙌

[@saladz3657]

Another great one. I love the mix of history of skateboarding, architecture and culture. Informative and fun to watch!

[@stevenknoble1361]

love the history behind these episodes

[@non_brewed_condiment]

This truly is the best series ever

[@followsuittrading]

Ted's narration is gold. The lady on the street clapping after the nose manual nollie 180 flip out for the very last trick made my heart smile

[@foamy_things]

fakie manny fakie 180 flip :) Cyrus's goofy

[@magnusm.4437]

Thanks for your spreading knowledge, Ted. Your affection for skateboarding and history is inspiring.

[@dannysargent1909]

Amazing dropping straight knowledge making it not boring in the least bit. Thanks 💜💯🛹‼️

[@ShawnPBruce]

As soon as I moved to New York I went through the Court House area and took in all the history from the space. What an iconic place.

[@derrickadams4874]

This was such a fantastic explanation of architecture and skateboarding coalesce. If you ever try to explain skateboarding to someone you love who doesn't understand it, this is a great recipe.

[@drippyscratchcat]

What an awesome story teller and the way he presents what he's talking about is amazing. Built for this shit!!

[@RobertCanales-w1q]

What a well done video boys we need more skate spots with history lessons

[@gosb88]

This is the best series I've seen in skateboarding since the On Video days. Please keep em coming!!

[@drewa5355]

Best series y'all have ever done. The way dude went into detail about the spot was second to none. Beautifully done.

[@azizabbasi4739]

The depth of emotions that skateboarding makes us feel is unbelievable. This was so good.

[@bradleyniday1167]

I love when I can come to Thrasher for my shred sesh and historical lessons. Forever subscriber since the 90's here.

[@vizzybabyy]

A true historian and passionate perspective on such an iconic skate spot.

[@pederbergenwall]

Very casual skate vid enjoyer here, but this series is amazing.

[@johannngut]

Crazy spots. This please series must go on forever

[@mapnerd8460]

i love this series so much

[@ericpohlman5131]

Man, that was so good. Gave me goose bumps. Plus, Suciu.

[@antlr_dst]

So stoked on this series

[@enzofer2125]

These videos are off the charts good!

[@piacere_lore]

I LOVE this series

[@The_Bass_Stunters]

Only Thrasher Magazine can deliver sick tricks and amazing History all in one. Bravo!

[@SquangSkateboards]

Cyrus Bennett's switch nose manny halfcab flip was Godlike

[@michaelmcbride3112]

This series is so good. Thanks an please keep them coming.

[@nathanieljohnson2664]

Love this show.

[@howiespancakeshack]

These are incredible. 11/10.

[@RogerAcosta.]

This really is the best series Thrasher has ever offered

[@looseygoosey23]

I am so happy this man gets to review the spots in such well structured speaking

[@MrNigesk8]

Bit of history never hurt anyone...Really enjoyed this.

[@TheLordcasio]

Architectural history? Skating? YES PLEASE! I'm a Gen X skater and appreciate architecture via skating. This video is SO different from the Thrasher norm. I love this.

[@codizzl3]

This dude was great and loved the history. Better than some schools, thank you!!!!!!

[@ErasthamusGames]

Anything with Ted is fantastic. Please bring him in whenever y'all can

[@coverlovercomics2579]

Another banger of an episode. Thank you....

[@Subterranean_wind]

Those are absolutely brilliant!

[@1nvd]

I missed Ted so much.

[@carlosiespinozab]

Ted is such a great host for this series! Love it!

[@gamby16a]

Continues to be a college level course in history and architecture. I love that the woman in white at the end even gave props to that last trick. 🙂

[@classicsk8mag]

5 seconds in, & im already HYPED !!!!! best series ever

[@236santi]

This series is amazing

[@henryjones8287]

Love this series. They're such a nice counterpoint to the Dern Bros' vids, which are also great in their own way. These vids are like a fine single malt to the Dern Bros' session lager.

[@SMbased]

love learning the history. I'm a Los Angeleno but lived in Manhattan for 4 years. I miss it.

[@peachy-tay]

ted is such an incredible storyteller!

[@theClassicMatt21]

Came for the skating, stayed for the history. Awesome video

[@metsoIomita]

This series is just the BEST

[@bloomingproductions6886]

Thank you to the Thrasher crew for providing these immaculate moments!

[@qdc70]

Refreshing to hear a well-spoken guy give details on an iconic spot

[@pharmeee]

Ted is so good at this

[@TheDyslexic]

This is gold! Keep this series coming!!

[@ShinyHubCaps]

This host is incredible at bringing together all of the pieces of information and turning them into a story that is about, but not entirely about, skateboarding

[@MegaAppl3]

Great work Ted !

[@AdamCeladin]

WOW EPIC Job on this one !!! More videos like this guys!

[@vxyz5219]

Loving this series so much. Also, that Tyshawn footage of him as a kid was crazy to see

[@stevee.7419]

Great piece. Fantastic skateboarding!

[@therealjd1503]

Love this series

[@Theplanetyonx]

beautifully executed. this is a type and a quality of journalism that skateboarding has probably never seen.

[@null_bite]

yo!! wow .. this was sooo insanely fun to watch

[@lesterksi4521]

Loved the historical story of this. More videos like this!

[@pdxraves]

Possibly the best series released from Thrasher since ask the Phelper

Better than that, vx1000 series is pretty good too though!
