TOP TWELVE: TOA FAVORITE BROOKLYN BANKS CLIPS

The TOA Top Twelve is back with a very topical Brooklyn Banks post for your quarantined eyes. Since it’s virtually impossible to make a “Best Tricks” list for a spot so historical as the Brooklyn Banks, we decided to lighten it up a bit and make a list of our favorite clips from the long, long history of the incredible spot. Although a TON of amazing stuff has gone down w/in the property lines of the Banks, we picked the clips that have either been the most memorable to us or were so amazing we couldn’t leave them off the list. And since we can’t ever make up our minds completely, we added an “Honorable Mentions” section so we could squeeze a few more into the mix to make sure we didn’t leave out any classics. Do you agree with our list? What did we forget? Let us know in the comments. – Theories of Atlantis.

In order of appearance the skaters featured are: Eric Koston, Rob Welsh, Tim O’Connor, Brian Wenning, Jamie Thomas, Austin Gyllete, Stevie Williams, Jake Johnson, Zered Bassett, Josh Kalis and Quim Cardona.

The Honorable Mentions featured are: Mike Carroll, Javier Nunez, Mark Gonzales, Quim Cardona, Josh Kalis, Gino Ianucci, Jake Johnson, Keith Denley, Fred Gall and Jason Dill.

Night and Day, DTLA with Stevie Williams

Night and day in downtown Los Angeles: the bustling daytime neighbourhood said to have about 500,000 jobs but only 58,000 (official) residents empties at night into a surreal, serene landscape of deserted boulevards and silent skyscrapers. The bustle of foot traffic and vendors subside, thrusting the boarded up theatres and empty office buildings to the forefront. Downtown is a dichotomy of differences. Now rebranded and abbreviated to the hip “DTLA,” the sight of the Spanish mission that founded the modern-day city of Los Angeles was once home to the Tongva, a Native American people. What was once a thriving theatre and arts district now hosts a Skid Row with one of the largest stable homeless populations in the country. Like night and day, it’s hard not to ignore the differences. Stevie Williams is spending more time at his Los Angeles home these days and gives us his take on the difference of twelve hours in this short piece directed by Ryan Allan and presented by G-Shock.
