Weekly Stoken #85

Welcome to the Weekly Stoken #85 — a lap through Rio chaos, local shop love, fresh onboardings, throwback tapes, and skaters still squeezing life out of worn boards.

This week feels like SkateHive at its best: not polished content made for an algorithm, but real street documentation from crews, shops, friends, and skaters who keep showing up. From Praça XV to small local scenes, the thread is the same: skateboarding survives because people film it, share it, teach each other, and keep the culture moving.

Skate and Chaos at Plaza XV - Cariocaos 2026 was FIRE!! — @nogenta

Street Life 14 drops us into Rio de Janeiro’s underground skate scene with Cariocaos at Praça XV, organized by Coletivo XV. It is loud, raw, crowded, and alive — exactly the kind of street energy that makes a spot more than concrete.

Memorable days — @blessskateshop

@blessskateshop brings the local shop perspective: long days, community support, and the work behind keeping skate culture rolling. Shops like this are more than retail — they are meeting points, launchpads, and trusted doors into the scene.

Praça Mauá e Pequena África | Sessão no Centro do Rio - Street Life 09 — @nogenta

Another chapter from Rio’s streets, this one moving through Praça Mauá and Pequena África. It is a reminder that filming a session also preserves a map of the city through skaters’ eyes.

We don't get lost anymore... — @reelflip

@reelflip reflects on the old magic of getting lost: wrong turns, accidental spots, and the discovery that used to happen before everything had a pin on the map. It hits because every skater knows that feeling.

@randomsk8 digs into the archive with sessions from Felipe De Lucca, André Reis, and Marcos Camazano around Clube Alto de Pinheiros. Throwback footage matters — it shows the roots and the friendships behind progression.

🛹Firts video oficial june / primer video sk8 de junio [Ing-,Esp] — @elvlogxpasta

@elvlogxpasta keeps skating a board that is already worn out, because if it still holds, it still rolls. Simple, honest, and very SkateHive.
