  • Independent Trucks has officially shaken the skate world again with a new clip featuring Chris Joslin unleashing a monster tre flip down the legendary El Toro 20-stair.

    Independent Trucks has officially shaken the skate world again with a new clip featuring Chris Joslin unleashing a monster tre flip down the legendary El Toro 20-stair. If you’ve followed skate history, you already know El Toro isn’t just a spot — it’s a proving ground. The giant California stair set has broken boards, bones, and dreams for decades, and only the most fearless skaters even consider stepping to it. In the post, you can see the filmer setting up at the bottom while Joslin, calm as ever, rolls up to the top of the infamous set. No hesitation, no warm-up, just pure commitment. The moment he snaps the board, you already know it’s about to go down. The board spins perfectly under him, bolts, and he rolls away like it’s nothing. A textbook Joslin hammer. Independent Trucks captioned it with: “🔥 Tre Flip down The Bull – 149 Titaniums 💪 #RideTheBest” — a reminder that the trucks holding this madness together were their 149 Titaniums, built for exactly this kind of punishment. Skaters in the comments are calling it: “One of the cleanest tre flips ever done down that set.” “Joslin doing Joslin things.” “Proof that Titaniums can take ANY impact.” “El Toro is officially scared now.” It’s one of those clips that instantly gets shared around — the type that makes skaters stop what they’re doing, replay it five times, and say, “No way he just did that.” Whether you’re a Joslin fan, an Indy Trucks loyalist, or just someone who loves seeing history get pushed further, this post is one for the books.

  • 360 flip down El Toro wasn’t enough — now the bull lives on the board as a reminder of who won the fight.

    After stomping a legendary 360 flip down the notorious El Toro, Chris Joslin follows up with a graphic that tells the story better than words ever could. The new EL TORO deck from Plan B isn’t just artwork — it’s a symbol of domination. The graphic shows a matador standing over a defeated bull, representing the moment Joslin took on one of the most feared stair sets in skateboarding and walked away victorious.

    El Toro has ended careers, broken boards, and humbled countless skaters. But Joslin’s 360 flip was a moment that felt like watching someone tame a wild beast. The board design captures that exact energy: the fight, the fearlessness, and the final blow.

    This release is a tribute to that battle — the bull conquered, the spot destroyed, and a new chapter in skateboarding history written. For fans, it’s not just a deck. It’s a trophy. A reminder of what happens when a skater refuses to back down.

    The EL TORO graphic is out now, and it stands as a bold statement: some legends are earned the hard way… one massive trick at a time.

  • Mikey Taylor Becomes First Professional Skateboarder to Serve as Mayor

    Congrats Mayor Mikey Taylor!

    @Instagram.com/mikeytaylor

    Retired professional skateboarder Mikey Taylor has taken another step in his life after skating by becoming the mayor of his hometown, Thousand Oaks. While many remember him for his time on the skateboard, Taylor has spent the years since retiring building a life focused on family, business, and community. RELATED: Mikey Taylor Says Skateboarding is a Short Term Career, Be Financially Literate After stepping away from professional skateboarding, Taylor carried the mindset of a skate rat into new ventures, evolving into a thoughtful entrepreneur. He runs Commune Capital, a real estate business, and hosts a podcast where he shares insights on life, business, and personal growth. Over the years, he has also taken the time to mentor young skaters, teaching them how to handle their finances wisely and make decisions that set them up for the future. Taylor’s interest in leadership and service naturally led him to politics. He first joined the Thousand Oaks City Council, where he worked closely with city staff and residents to support local projects and initiatives. His efforts and dedication did not go unnoticed, and now he has stepped into the role of mayor, ready to guide the city with the same focus and determination he applied to skating and business. Sharing the news on social media, Taylor expressed his gratitude: “Last night I became the Mayor of Thousand Oaks. First off, all glory goes to God. Thank you to my council for trusting me in this position. To our city staff for doing a great job managing our city. And also our residents for giving me the opportunity to serve you!” As mayor, Taylor has emphasized collaboration and community engagement. He plans to continue working closely with city staff and residents to strengthen local programs, support families, and foster opportunities for growth. His leadership reflects a combination of practical experience, community connection, and a commitment to making a positive difference in the city he has called home for years. From professional skateboarder to entrepreneur to public servant, Taylor’s path shows how skills and values from one part of life can carry forward into others. His new role as mayor offers an opportunity to impact Thousand Oaks in meaningful ways while staying connected to the skate community that shaped him.

  • Torey Pudwill & Daewon Song’s Thank You Skateboards Shuts Down: Sources

    Thank You Skateboards has allegedly wrapped things up, according to multiple sources close to the scene.

    The brand’s final social media activity goes back to August 20, 2025, when they shared their King Of The Hill collaboration.After that point, things went quiet and the slowdown became hard to ignore.The strange part is that the brand was still putting out footage earlier on. They had guest boards like the Cairo Foster release and fresh faces joining the team.Riders such as Gustavo Ribeiro and Danny Hamaguchi remained active and helped keep attention on the brand. However, neither currently lists Thank You Skateboards on their bios.Even so, skateboarders noticed that Daewon Song had been missing.His last appearance on their social feed was on March 7, 2025. After that date he no longer showed up with the crew.According to a source who spoke with ShreddER, Song was reportedly no longer involved with the brand, leaving many to assume Torey Pudwill was handling most of the activity on his own.As the brand slowed down, more signs began to surface.Pro skateboarder David Reyes decided to leave and link up with Jamie Thomas and the Zero crew. People familiar with the situation said he stepped away because they believed the company might be winding down.Around the same time, Pudwill was seen riding blank boards and he stopped tagging the brand online, which strengthened the feeling among skaters and insiders that something had changed behind the scenes.As previously reported, Song recently appeared on Crail Couch with the Girl and Chocolate crew.The episode brought him back onto fans’ radar after the show’s long break from producing episodes.Many skaters began guessing that he might end up with Girl or Chocolate, since he is currently a free agent and appears open to whatever comes next.Song also no longer lists Thank You Skateboards on his bio, which suggests he may have already moved on without an official hard post announcement.Skateboard component salesThank You Skateboards had a strong place in the culture, and the idea of Pudwill and Song teaming up meant a lot to skaters.With the brand reportedly closing, people are hoping that Pudwill finds a new place to ride for, possibly starts something fresh or redbrand Thank You.Everyone is also watching to see if Song eventually joins the Crailtap family.No matter how things play out, both pro skaters already stamped their names in the game, and the community is still rocking with them wherever they go next.

  • FTP x Reebok Skate Shoes Coming Soon That Reveal a Secret F*ck The Population Design as You Shred

    @Instagram.com/ftpleaks

    FTP is really moving in with this skate thing for real.

    They already had everybody watching back in 2022 when they dropped that “NOT A SKATE VIDEO.” That whole thing felt like some raw Baker type project, nothing clean or polished, just clips straight from the street.Crazy part is Zack himself doesn’t even skate but somehow FTP ended up with one of the hardest names in the game when Antwuan Dixon got down with them.The second Dixon was on board the whole scene had to pay attention.Now FTP linking up with Reebok for some skate shoes and they’re not just doing a regular sneaker drop. These got layers built in. When you skate them the first look breaks down and another FTP design starts showing through.It is like the shoes get louder the more you actually put them to use. That makes sense too because skaters never keep their shoes clean. Once you put in the work, they look better beat up, and FTP already lives in that attitude of not caring how it looks as long as it is real.Zack always been on that street mentality with FTP with no pretending, and just doing whatever feels right. So having Dixon on the skate side feels organic.Dixon has always been one of those dudes everybody respected on a board, so making him part of the brand makes it feel more official.Once these hit the streets, everybody’s going to want to see if they really hold up. FTP heads will cop them quick no question.But if the shoe feels good to skate and that second layer design comes through the way they say it will, then FTP and Reebok might end up with one of the hardest skate collabs in a minute.

  • Pro Skateboarder Kyonosuke Yamashita Leaves Lakai to Put Asics in the Streets

    Credit: Erased; Asics

    Kyonosuke Yamashita on  AsicsKyonosuke Yamashita just switched it up heavy. He’s no longer rocking with Lakai and is now officially rolling with Asics Skateboarding.

    That move right there is straight power since Asics is from his own country and it feels like he’s putting on for Japan in a big way.The Lakai spot didn’t stay empty for long though. Chris Joslin slid right in and now he’s carrying that torch. Anybody who’s seen Joslin skate knows he goes all out every time, so Lakai stacking him on the roster makes sense. Still, Yamashita leaving leaves a mark because he’s been one of the illest names to represent the team out of Asia.For Asics, they made sure the whole world knew what time it was. They dropped that “A Guided Tour” full length on Thrasher to stamp their name in skateboarding culture. That wasn’t just some throwaway clip either. It was a full project showing they’re not playing around and they’re here to grow in the skate world with skaters who actually matter.Yamashita making this move is deeper than just a  shoe deal.It’s like he’s tying himself closer to his roots while putting himself in position to go global at the same time.Skateboarding never stops switching up and this just shows how worldwide it really is now. Yamashita with Asics feels like the start of something bigger, like Japan really about to step louder into the game.
