Staten Island with Leo Heinert and Marco Hernandez | Neighborhoods – JENKEM
In this episode, we took the ferry into Staten Island to meet up with pro skater Leo Heinert and photographer Marco Hernandez.

MYLES AND THE MACHINE – TOY MACHINE
The onslaught of Myles Willard continues with ANOTHER new part to follow up Scorched Earth! Presented by Jenkem Magazine.
JENKEM – We Tried Foods from Iconic Skate Videos
It’s always amazing how the tiniest details from skate videos can get permanently fried into your brain. To this day, I sing “eat that shrimp” every single time I’m eating shrimp, and I can’t pour myself a glass of juice without swigging it around in the jug like Terry Kennedy in Baker 3. Little moments like this got us thinking about all the other unconventional food clips that have made it into skate videos over the years, and we were itching to try some of them for ourselves. – JENKEM
JENKEM – Checking out the historic spots of Athens, Greece
Spend the day checking out Athens, Greece a city known much more for its ancient history than its skate scene. But just because the world at large hasn’t seen many Athenian skate spots doesn’t mean there aren’t any to be found. Watch as we get a proper skate tour from Thanos Panou and Notis Aggelis of one of the most significant cities in human history. – JENKEM
JENKEM PREMIERE: Myles Willard’s “Myles and The Machine” Part
Treat yourself to Myles’ tasteful skating, Ed Templeton’s artistic and comedic input, Don Luong’s video work, and clips from the rest of the Toy crew. By the looks of this video, it seems the fresh faces on Toy are injecting some new life into the brand. – JENKEM
JENKEM PREMIERE: Eli Williams & friends in “Overload”
“Overload” doesn’t follow any of the current trends you see in most videos, i.e. there is no dramatic slow-mo zoom-ins or 16mm B-roll here. Instead, the video relies on fast raw skating and an editing style filled with left turns to make the final product. Enjoy Eli Williams part from the entire 2 hour spastic behemoth. – JENKEM
JENK TV – A day (and a half) with Corporate Skateboards
Welcome to another episode of Jenk TV! This time around Jenkem headed out to Los Angeles to meet up with Reggie, the brains behind Corporate Skateboards and his ragtag crew of riders. The brand caught our attention with their wild graphics and eclectic crew of characters who all have styles that don’t seem like they would work together yet somehow do.
JENKEM PREMIERE: Marbie in “Ruining Skateboarding”
Marbie’s skating is always fun, and oftentimes even a little left field. She’ll pull something incredibly tech or incredibly goofy out of nowhere, and you truly never know what you’re gonna get from one clip to the next. – JENKEM
PREMIERE: Leo Bañuelos in There’s “Ruining Skateboarding” – JENKEM
Leo is the mind behind the editing of There’s first full-length video “Ruining Skateboarding” and came thru with a solid manual-filled part of his own.
JENKEM PREMIERE: Shawn Powers’ “SP Underground” Part
Like a super villain waiting in the shadows, skateboarding’s favorite Polo wearing antagonist resurfaces with this low-key part. In between working on his brand, art, and filming for another Palace project, Shawn found the time to get out with filmer Noah Letcavage in the dead of winter to put together some tricks that pay homage to 90’s skateboarding. This is just an appetizer for what’s to come. – JENKEM
PREMIERE: “Hell Cherub” by Redd Sarson – JENKEM
Redd Sarson’s latest video “Hell Cherub” features filming, editing, and skating at the highest level and he did it all while working some shit jobs – something many spoiled skaters in the states aren’t privy to. Enjoy this Aussie indie banger.
JENKEM – How Skateboarding Went HD
