The Lower East Side Skatepark ("L.E.S.") set a precedent for skatepark construction across the boroughs of New York City after it opened on Go Skateboarding Day 2012. Describing it as the "civic centre" of NYC's skate scene, journalist Ian Browning explored how it came to be and where skateparks sit within the ecosystem of New York's municipality, in a Quartersnacks story that coincided with the tenth anniversary of L.E.S. published in 2022. On our first Skate Bylines podcast, Ian shared how the story came together and we explored how New York's significance to skate culture grew exponentially over the past decade.

In the midst of struggling to trying to write a novel about skateboarding the author Kyle Beachy decided simply to write about a person he admired: Andrew Reynolds. He saw Reynolds as someone who possessed an uncanny cultural presence with the ability to unify skateboarding opinion not only through respect but, importantly, the acknowledgement than no-one would argue the frontside flip is not Andrew Reynolds’ trick. However, in the wake of Emerica's 'Stay Gold', Beachy also saw Reynolds as as perfect model of an adult that a skateboarder could achieve. Adulthood being “A crisis that you also, if you persist long enough at this most fun thing, will have to confront,” writes Beachy in his essay, ‘A Very Large Puzzle: On Andrew Reynolds’. The piece published by Jenkem Magazine in 2012 would become a foundational text (and inform the title) of what became his second novel, 'The Most Fun Thing: Dispatches From A Skateboard Life'. Published in 2020 by Grand Central, the book is a collection of Beachy’s writings on skateboarding spanning throughout the 2010s. On today’s show, Beachy discusses writing that formative essay on Andrew Reynolds and who The Boss is today.
