Can you believe this? They destroyed LOVE Park. They are trying to destroy what’s left of EMB, but by some miracle the Brooklyn Banks have been restored damn near to their original state with the small banks on the way. This doesn’t happen. It took a ton of work and Saturday felt like a celebration of that work. Not to mention, it was Go Skate Day. —Mike Heikkila

We are so back

Pedro and Gilbert already in the cypher

Coco came through to kick it with Jiro Platt and Jeff Cecere

The Secret Tape and Brian Panebianco pulled up from their homeland of Pennsylvania

Out of nowhere, some type of overflow valve opened up right before the event started and poured a ton of water at the top of the Banks

Shout out this squad that formed to try and stop the water from soaking the Banks quickly. But thankfully, it stopped right after this or else this whole event woulda been over

RB Umali loves this shit. Even after all these years, he definitely out here

Pedro vlog comin right up

Did anyone get that K-Walks kickflip 5-0?

Now over to the nine. Jiro back lips it before they can even start the event

Steve R and Justin Villano still can’t believe they pulled off opening this place back up

Shout out the people that run Gotham Park for taking care of the Banks. Please throw away ya trash and take care of the place!

Zion Wright kickflip front 50-50 in like three tries. That’s crazy

Noah Uchida's age is definitely less than the amount of stairs he’s kickflipping

Devin Flynn back 5-0 front 180 out. Hold up, that’s a ledge trick

Get a seat where you can

Jiro Platt may have just figured out how to switch back lip to end the nine contest

Back to the top!

Gilbert keeping his TM in line

Roadkill 4 by Naquan Rollings coming soon!

Joe Buffalo got like seven tricks on this box. They should’ve gave all the money to him

Labor James with said money

Kyle sourced wax from the crowd to make this back lip happen

Could you be the next dog skateboarding Instagram star?

K-Walks from the ledge straight to the ten, alley-oop back 180

These are brand new bricks in the landing. It’ll be a few years ’til they are little more forgiving to the slams

Man, impossibles are hard to shoot. Ryan Hamburg lands this one perfectly

And gets an easy $200 for it

You can just hire your own security guard who will let you skate

Jason Park did this Patrick Star to fakie first try

Joe Buffalo gets a back disaster on the side in between five kids trying to taildrop off the top

Couple heads pulled up to check it out

Pedro rolls up and front boards the 13 first try with the backpack on

Security guard Eric had to get everyone to back up after they got too hyped for Dro

Zion stuck back lip, then went back up and just gapped super far into back overcrook first try. That is my excuse for taking this too early

Daiki Hoshino took an Uber from the airport straight to this back Smith

How it feels to break someone’s board after you break your own

Devin Flynn nosegrind for the mom cam

Cops can’t even believe you can slam on a 13 and just get right back up

Completely sideways, this is the land of the back 180

A true My War, boneless after what seemed like 50 tries for the rest of the bread

Quasi guys love to see a man jump on pipe

RB showing Rizzo the director’s cut of Mixtape with live commentary

I just wanna sit down with Cooper Qua, Johnny Cumaoglu and Josh Wilson after being overwhelmed with so much hucking

David and Goliath, err … I mean Noah and Shealy

I was not kidding; Daiki Uber’d here from the airport

Foy drove all the way from Woodward to pick up Z and send it back after dapping up Steve R

Look at it one more time. This shouldn’t be here. It should be a strip mall with a Chipotle and a Five Guys. Young kids will be able to skate here without the feeling of nostalgia and make their own cool shit. That is awesome.
