This Old Ledge: Arco Rails



Every once in a while a guy like Felipe Oliveira drops a part that makes you think where has this dude been? He’s sort of wild, but in a rad way.
And in fairness, I can’t keep up with everybody. Trust me, I try. We all try. But I will say this dude has an impressively deep bag of tricks and absolutely delivered in his new Ace Trucks part. Take a look:
„Operating on his own frequency amidst his native Brazil and throughout global skate destinations, Felipe leaves his emphatic impression on the spot,“ Ace mentions. „Unique style, trick selection and fervent execution make this edit fun to watch and inspiring with skating outside of the standard fare.“
This part was full of surprises! Honestly, about a minute into it I just decided to genuinely sit back and see what he was going to hit us with.

Felipe’s skating is unique in a way that some people will fully grasp it and think, „Yeah, this dude rips.“ And others might think, „What?“ But I’m always a fan of originality and a fresh approach, so I’m backing it. And let’s be real—things start heating up pretty quickly!
The way he sees a spot is certainly not the way I’d see one, for example. I’m sure you’d agree, too. But that doesn’t mean that this dude isn’t out there getting his! He’s bringing something special to the table. Sometimes I just need at accept that the skating does the talking.
Say more. Say less. Felipe rips. That’s all there is to it.

First of all—Merry Christmas, ya’ll! Second of all—when you see names like Enzo Kurmaske, Aidan Olmstead, Max Palmer, Nelly Morville, Noah Mahieu, Powell Terrel, Big T, Cyrus Bennet and Andrew Wilson mentioned in an edit, you stop what you’re doing and watch.
Ryan Mettz recently shared this new edit on his YouTube of this entire squad lighting up the streets, and it’s the perfect little Christmas present for us all to enjoy today. Press play and then go enjoy those holiday sessions!
The clip might start with some brutal (yet, sort of comical) slams, but things heat up pretty quickly. Every single one of these skateboarders constantly brings something fresh to the table and there’s really never a dull moment when they’re out there in the streets doing their thing.
Enzo Kurmaske is quickly becoming one of my favorites these days. And I’ve always been a huge fan of Andrew Wilson, Cyrus and of course, Max Palmer. Like I said—when I see their names, I stop and pay attention.

Whatever your plans are today, I hope you can get in a session with your friends and family one way or another. I thought this ripping edit might help assist with the stoke. You know the deal! Schools are closed, industrial business parks are ready to rip and all the high-bust spots that you typically don’t even think twice about are yours for the taking today.
Anyways… what are you still doing here!? I’m leaving this one short and sweet today. Grab your Christmas complete and hit the streets.

There might be room for pretty much everyone to have a voice in this wildly vast digital universe we all live in these days, but that doesn’t mean they’re all making a difference. That said, many folks do and have, but sometimes it’s hard to maintain.
Tony Hawk recently hopped on Instagram sharing the unfortunate news that his and Jason Ellis‘ podcast, ‚Hawk Vs. Wolf‘ will be on „indefinite hiatus as of 2025.“ Check the post and some words from Tony below explaining why.
View the original article to see embedded media.
Here’s the message from Tony:
„Our Hawk vs. Wolf podcast will be on indefinite hiatus as of 2025. The last few years of making these shows have been a transformative journey of insightful conversations, shared vulnerability and consistent laughter, and I am forever grateful to Jason for his time and support. I believe that we created something uniquely entertaining in a space rife with mediocrity. But it seems that we are unable to effectively navigate Big Algorithms in order to find a larger audience and the necessary growth to attract consistent sponsors. Jason and I devoted ourselves to make the best show we can, but it is not financially tenable in its current form. We tried, and kept trying even when it cost us our own money to produce the show. Thank you to everyone that listened, watched, liked and subscribed (and described) to HvW; all of your enjoyment and feedback encouraged us to push through the many challenges as we tried to find our way. It has been a privilege to host so many inspiring guests, and an honor to collaborate with Jason all these years.Perhaps a new audience will discover these recordings (through free will?) and give us hope for a comeback. Until then, the future is unwritten. We have one more show to drop. It is arguably our best yet.“

From famous actors and comedians, to legendary musicians, rappers, artists, athletes, influencers, major players in the action sports world, and of course, skateboarders, there was such an impressive variety of guests on Hawk Vs. Wolf through the years. You really never knew who to expect, which was honestly a big part of what made it so rad.
Although the list is way too long for me to mention, I will throw a few of our recent favorite episodes below in case you want to carve out some time or build yourself a little playlist.
As Tony mentioned, maybe they’ll be back? In the meantime, revisit some of these gems below and lurk their YouTube channel!

Nicole Hause is an absolute ripper and just dropped a rad „Mixtape“ edit featuring some of her favorite clips from the past few years. It’s actually super sick to see her progressing right in front of our faces like this! She’s been charging lately and we know 2025 will be a big year for her. Settle in and press play.
„From going on my first filming trip in 2018 to getting my own color-way with Nike SB, these are all the best skate moments in between,“ Nicole wrote.
This is some serious full-circle stuff here! Think about how gnarly that is. Getting your own signature Nike SB Dunk is no small feat, especially a bold colorway like she dropped. Love to see it.
You can’t deny Nicole deserves everything she’s been getting lately. Riding for Real is a huge deal all the same, and she’s out there holding her own with the best of ‚em! If anyone deserves a spot in the van right now, it’s Hause.

Love them or hate them, but her Dunks flew off skate shop shoe walls and I think it’s rad that she took the approach she did with those. Originality is important in skateboarding and Nicole continues to prove how true she knows this is. She’s been all over this year, too! From the streets to backyard ramps, skateparks and everywhere in between. Full speed ahead!
Oh yeah, and she nailed it with the song. Just saying. Not sure if it’s supposed to be ironic and goofy or serious, but honestly, I’m backing it either way. Yeah, Nicole!
