Been feelin' an edit @ Bricklynn Banks, literally found out today that it re-opened on June 5, 2025! Will def have to make a trip there this summer.
All tricks are hardcore difficulty as always. Music is a little all over the place but dig it.

See me glidin' swiftly to the KottonMouth Kings in this week's Reddit edit. We find ourselves at Slappy's Car Lot once again and this time we weren't quite as slaphappy as our previous visit. Still got a couple in for good measure tho! Every clip is Hardcore difficulty for those keeping track at home.

Spot of the Week 156 brings us to Carverton Memorial Park, the city's war memorial with elaborate sculptures and tons of shreddable terrain. Shoutout to @stormskating for being the first to land the gap over the huge name plaque in Hardcore! Pro tip: make sure vid resolution is 4K.

Stumbled across this spot for the first time in a long time and decided to put our updated tricks and camera skills to work. This spot was the very first spot we submitted an edit for Reddit's Spot of the Week contest. The original vid (link below) was done in easy difficulty, while this updated version is done entirely in hardcore difficulty.
Kept the song the same since it's a banger and now we get to hear the whole verse; just one of many components that is better in this version which result in a better overall vid in my opinion. Give the original a watch and share your thoughts in the comments

1. Syphrus is probably the single most underrated creator on YouTube.
2. I don't have many HC Gaps to flat, so time to make one
This is the product of that. Hit it!
Disclaimer: If this gap is already owned by someone, please let me kno so I can give credit in the title.
It appears there are some thieves among us, and they need to be taught about OPP. There is only one DEFY in Skate 3, trying to steal the name a year and a half later is as unoriginal as it gets in a sport that prides itself on originality. Grow the fuck up and change your name, pussies.
Music: OPP by Naughty By Nature

This Triple Gap goes HARD.
Ramp-to-Roof-to-Beam-to-QP delivering a punch at every section. Not for the feint of heart!
Make sure you adjust the vid to 4K! 🔅🔆
This week brings us to the shadows of the Hotel District in Downtown Port Carverton. It's been a minute since we had the chance to post, glad to find a gem hidden in plain view waiting to greet us. Tons of ledges, stairs, slopes, planters, signs, and objects to grind to your heart's content. We out here.
Music: Sweetness by Jimmy Eat World
youtube.com/watch?v=ROatPGGMvXgyoutube.com/watch?v=ROatPGGMvXg
This spot has more to offer than first meets the eye. Between a few objects, ledges, and a downhill for speed, we def could have spent even more time here. Peak is the ender; lil DP never hurt anyone.
Skate 3 Hardcore difficulty in 4K
Music: Digital Me by Northstar
youtube.com/watch?v=TuJ5kg4-DHc
Bomb Drop starts off the hardcore line in the Industrial District. Peak is Front Tail the Dozer Lateflip to Fakie out. Or maybe Half-Cab Darkslide takes it?
Music: Enjoy the Silence by Depeche Mode
youtube.com/watch?v=6bYKZbWxKoQ
Great spot selection by u/Condorman1981 on r/Skate3 for this week's location. Dodging traffic, rails n ledges, and some massive drop-ins highlight this week's edit. Also a couple of cagey darkslides in here; not for the feint of heart.
Music: Holding On To You by 21 Pilots

Spot of the Week 148 brings us to a ledge haven where I get to flex the shit out of my new hoodie. At least 2 or 3 different times I felt like I was at Wallenberg! Also got to channel my inner Suciu on the slope-to-flat hand ledges, and even the Ole Buddy from his Verso part makes an appearance in SOTW 148! Available in 4K, don't forget to update the resolution settings. All tricks in Hardcore difficulty.

Haystings Park plays host to some of the best spots in the game, and we take full advantage at the GiVeR Street Park. The objective in this vid is to get under the handrail going up the stairs. Also tried to include a subtle bit of tech on the line in, which led to some pretty funky results. All clips are performed in hardcore difficulty.

This week's spot is deep in the Industrial District, aka the Streets of Port Carverton. Watch out for the traffic!

Disclaimer: I highly doubt I am the first to hit this gap, but I genuinely stumbled upon it today and can't remember seeing it before. Let me know in the comments if there is a vid of this and I'll link it.
Extra bonus points if you land and roll away in hc; tried for awhile but couldn't get it clean.

Shoutout to all the weekly contributors
Mostly hardcore; 1st clip, BWM, and literal Air Walk are on easy diff. RIP to the first deck I ever broke in Skate 3, OG Geometron taking over for now.
Clips are in chronological order from Feb to April of 2022. All gameplay is Dr. J, anything edited was done so by ApexBruin. Enjoy!!
Enter: Skate 3.
In all seriousness, this video is something @Storm_Skating and I have wanted to do for awhile now, and we are so proud of what we were able to put together. Tony, Rhett, Link, and STEVIE are some of our biggest heroes and we want to share this video as a token of our appreciation for the happiness and connections you all have brought to the world.
Enjoy folks!
