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.

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.
PREMIERE: Brazil’s Street Survivors Vol. 3 – JENKEM

It’s the latest entry in the Street Survivor series by filmer Gabriel Romero, highlighting the marriage of the two crews.

JENKEM – Parts w/ Arin
In JENKEM’s latest episode they reached out to Arin, to see what she was, and is currently, watching. Arin is a relatively new face to the larger skate world, so use this as a guide to get a feel for her skating before she drops her highly-anticipated first part.
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.
