What's up

SIT DOWN: Vincent Milou Vincent Milou has walked skateboarding's current highwire act better than most. Mainstream skateboarding media is currently preaching to ever-smaller congregations about what constitutes legitimacy in this tastemaking sphere of youth culture; meanwhile, contests flourish in a post-Covid era. Sponsors want their skateboarders to do the impossible- to broadcast and narrowcast them at the same time. As something clearly has to give there- and with the tide going against cool-guy culture in this day and age of inclusion- Vincent has just recently resolved a longstanding board sponsor limbo. He returned to Rome for WST World Cup 2025 in order to reclaim his position as the crowd's darling everywhere he goes. Marc Churchill sat down to get a sense of where France's highest-ranked Street skateboarder (30th) on the WST is at in his life and skating right at this moment in time. Enjoy our SIT DOWN interview with Vincent Milou, the universally well-liked style supremo! ______________________________________ Follow World Skate SB!

A Closer Look | WST World Cup Rome Park 2025 Welcome to our regular lookbacks at the World Skateboarding Tour! This time around we are looking in more depth at our week in Ostia at the start of June 2025 which saw the launch of a new season of the WST in soaring seaside temperatures at Lido di Ostia just outside the Italian capital Rome. From emerging names to global podium regulars, this inside look captures the atmosphere, intensity, and personality of one of the season’s most important stops. With valuable World Skateboarding Ranking points on the line, every run counts—and the emotion is as real as it gets. ______________________________________ Follow World Skate SB!
