If you’ve happened to stumble across a Late Nite Stars video – which if you haven’t, open those curtains and WAKE UP – you’d quickly realize that you’re watching one of the most influential crews in skateboarding right now.
Their arrival and speedy takeover of NYC skateboarding happened in the blink of an eye, dropping numerous videos: Big Parody, Respectfully, Still and most recently, The Circle, in a matter of two short years (not to mention all the offshoot videos from Nico’s channel). Through the crew’s videos we’ve been introduced to Trung Nguyen, Nico Marti, Alan Bell, Zak Anders, Chase Walker, and many more.
Pulling direct inspiration from hometown pioneer DJ Screw, the Texas boys cobbled together a chopped ‘n’ screwed mix of their own with tracks ranging from Paramore to Andre Nickatina and the unmistakable electronic classic “I`ll Fly With You”, among others. The mix is just as eclectic as their crew, mixed by their own Alan Bell in the DIY fashion they are known for.
Enjoy and download the mix HERE, while you can.

If the link “LATE NIGHT STARS” dosent connect, then they dont exist. Maybe this crew is all made up in your head.

I couldn’t grind the spot. Too many illegal aliens laying around on the benches and curbs in downtown. The illegals are ruining the scene here in downtown NYC. Pooping on the staircase approaches and landings. Urinating on the transitions. And Jenkem isn’t covering any of it.

that sucks. Are many of the skate spots occupied with make shift tents now?
