Life nowadays can become hectic and stressful so it’s good to take a moment, breathe in deeply and focus on what’s important. That’s why John Gardener came to Europe to skate, meet new people, and pass on his tools to maintain good mental health. Big S/O to John for doing all of this!

DC SHOES X BRONZE56K : CLOCKER 2 – WHAT IF GOD SAID
What if god said that video is what you needed? Bronze56k is back with another amazing video celebrating their newest collaboration with DC Shoes. They revived the OG DC Shoes Clocker 2 from back in the days to once again make the chunky-shoe-lovers happy.
As usual, Peter Sidlauskas did a great job editing this one.
John Gardner for OJ Wheels
“John Gardner may not be a much of a bowler, but we all know he’s a hell of a roller.” says it in the description of the video and we have to agree with the good people over at OJ Wheels on this one. John Gardner is a living legend!
Filmed & edited by Chris Ray.
John Gardner on Mental Health
Not only one but two videos of John Gardner talking about the importance of our mental health and everything that is coming with that. He is not only simply addressing things but is also giving some advice on things you can do if you feel like something is feeling a little off with you.
Other than watching those videos you can also talk to your friends, family and most importantly a professional therapist if you feel the need to reflect on your own mental health.
Here is JOHN’S JENKEM PIECE that has just came out. As well as some MORE DETAILED ADVICE from Andrew Huberman, published by The Nine Club.

CHOPPY D
DC Shoe’s Choppy D once again shows that their team is stacked and arguably has one of the best line-ups in skateboarding at the moment.
Feat.: Evan Smith, Jaakko Ojanen, Madars Apse, Matt Miller, Thaynan Costa, Tiago Lemos, Wes Kremer & many more.
Tiago Lemos – Indy Part
We always love when skaters have parts that are edited to music that comes from their country, it makes sense that Tiago is skating to a Kamau song. furthermore, if this is what is blasting through Mr. Lemos’ earplugs most of the time it certainly would explain a part of why his skating is so pumped up.
Thaynan Costa – FUNBOX
When I first met Thaynan Costa, we were both being shipped to a ghost city in Inner Mongolia / China. One of his sponsors sent us there to skate this random place for 10 days. I had heard of him before, but I didn’t really know who he was. I think at the time he was around 17 years old, maybe 18. It took us about four years to meet again, but this time we decided to meet on more common ground. Recently Enjoi surprised him with his pro-board and even though people say it all the time, it’s true – he really is a professional. When Louie Barletta himself turns you pro, you did something right. Here are our five days of Thaynan Costa.
Mean Streets John Shanahan
One of our office favorite’s John Shanahan with the LurkNYC Treatment. Sit back and enjoy the latest DC Shoes amateur skating the boroughs.
Thaynan Costa – “Our Sweet Baby”
Thaynan Costa is now pro for Enjoi. To celebrate the fact of being a professional he worked overtime. Seems like Enjoi is doing something right!
Tiago Lemos – TC Plaza Tour
If you are still thirsty for more Brazilian skateboarding after watching Carlos Ribeiro‘s part today, there is plenty more of it! Tiago Lemos celebrates his new colorway on DC Shoes with this one.
Featuring Tiago Lemos, Carlos Iqui, Alex Carolino, JP Dantas and Bruno Aguero.
Davis Torgerson – Substance
Davis Torgerson is back smooth as ever with a full part to get completely lost in.
Tiago Lemos – “Wee-Bey”
Tiago’s skating is above and beyond at times even when you follow him on a daily basis he somehow manages to shock us. We say all that to say this, the guy who made this part finally found a song that shocks as much as Tiago’s skating. Enjoy the madness.

How the hell do you become so good and is it okay to drink the tap water in brazil? There has got to be a reason.. rice and beans, maybe? Tiago Lemos is someone who you could call “The Best”.
