Lots of People At The Rink

There were a lot of familiar faces at the Rink on 87th yesterday. Among them was veteran JBSKATER Nick. This is one of those nights where there were lots of people at the Rink. The entire room was packed and the air was hot. It took very little movement to get your shirt and your body absolutely drenched in sweat.

The Rink Has a Little Make Over

There is a new painting on the far wall inside the Rink and it looks great. It seems to give the room more depth. The neon colors and the custom imagery give the room a look the reflects the current customer demographic. Although the wall mural looks really nice, it doesn’t make up for that lumpy skate floor. The Rink probably has the most deceptively dangerous skate floors in the city.

Slow Cyphers At The Rink

We get it. Everything about doing a cypher, we get it, they are fun. Not only are they fun, they are necessary. They build that sense of community that’s needed to keep our skate world thriving. It’s a little token that keeps people coming back. However, during cyphers at tonight’s session there must have been 30+ people in the same area. There was barely any space to skate.

Pharaoh is going on a journey and it looks like he’ll take JBGODS across the country and around the world all on his own.

The Rink On A Saturday Skate Sessions

The Rink On A Saturday

The GodKing Pharaoh is planning on visiting the Rink on a Saturday night. Let’s see what the music and the vibe is like before Sunday.

Saturday night’s session did not get an immediate review from Pharaoh. As a result, we have no idea what he thought of it.

The Rink On Instagram

Pharaoh might have posted a live video to the JBGODS account on Instagram during the session. We honestly don’t remember what he said about the session and he doesn’t remember how it was. No one knows if that is a good or bad things.

The Rink On A Diet

Pharaoh does not normally go to the Rink. You would normally see him at Glenwood on Mondays and Wednesdays. He’s stopping by the Rink on a Saturday since there is no more Glenwood.
