JENKEM – Parts with Brighton Zeuner

Welcome to the latest episode of Jenkem’s series where we take a step back and talk about the true foundation of skateboarding. You guessed it; it’s video parts. In Jenkem’s latest episode, they took a shot in the dark and asked Brighton Zeuner, the Frog sponsored 16-year-old contest skater what parts she’s watching.

PREMIERE: Film Trucks “Flamant Rose” – JENKEM

Need a break from America? Enjoy “Flamant Rose” – a tour video that looks more like a vacation than a skate trip. If you’re unfamiliar with Film Trucks, they are a upstart brand out of France that’s trying to compete with the goliaths of the industry. Jenkem has always been a fan of the underdog and running a European based indie truck brand is definitely an uphill battle. Featuring Fred Psantos, Efrem Sapienza, Victor Cascarigny, Enzo Morel, Théo Moga, Bastien Marlin, Jérémie Daclin and guest Louis Bars.

JENKEM – Skateboarding w/ Comedian Mark Normand

We weren’t fully aware of Mark or his comedy until a few friends of ours sent us a photo of him skateboarding as a kid. We started doing our own research and went down a rabbit hole of his jokes about bad news, being bad at small talk, gay marriage, and this story about a maniac. Growing up he was definitely a skate nerd and we were interested in how it shaped his life and comedy after he hung it up in his teens.

Unfortunately, there isn’t a lot of live stand-up going on right now, so we couldn’t go sit in on one of his shows. Instead, we took a walk through one of the easiest places to make fun of things in New York: Tompkins Square Park. We cut him loose and had him skate and riff a little as he broke out his rusty go-to tricks in the freezing cold. – JENKEM

JENKEM – The Sit Down Ep. 2

The boys are finally back with episode two of The Sit Down. You may remember the first episode featuring Carpet Co. Jenkem dropped way back in April 2020. This time around, Tommy and Jason ditched the interviews and stuck to the skits bringing you seven solid minutes of skate buffoonery. They’re still out there taking light jabs at your favorite skaters and exposing skating’s most tired tropes, so hopefully everyone gets a good laugh out of it.

PREMIERE – Noah Fuzi’s “Common Courtesy” Part

Noah is what some of y’all would typically call an “ATV,” since he’s comfortable throwing down big transition tricks just as much as he is doing tricks at crusty street spots, and can take a slam like a champ. He’s also a low-key contest skater and a bit of an actor, so that told us there’s a bit more than meets the eye when it comes to this guy. Guess not all Australians are all about shotgunning beers and peeing into their own mouths. – JENKEM

JENKEM – Hanging Out With… Sunny Suljic

If you’re like JENKEM, you first saw Sunny when the trailers for Mid90s dropped. His performance in the film was undeniably good, regardless of how you felt about the movie overall, and the role turned him into a bit of an overnight celeb. He got a lot of attention from kids who were fans of the movie, but it also put him in the spotlight as an up-and-coming skater with sponsors like Illegal Civ and Adidas.

In JENKEM’s newest Hanging Out With, they caught up with the 15-year-old and visited a psychic to see what’s projected to be next in line for him.

JENKEM – Messing around at Yardsale’s London HQ

Although it’s a quickie, the Yardsale crew filmed this video on a random night while they were hanging out at their offices, making a ruckus, getting some food, and skating some makeshift ramps, presumably while “properly pissed mate.” This video may not be as in-depth as the one of Jenkem’s visit to the Pass~Port offices in Sydney was, but it still offers some insight into the overall spirit of the brand and where they actually come from. Featuring Jake Church, Curtis Pearl, Dan Kreitem, Zak Mayell, Rafski and Josh Church.
