This Old Ledge: Grant's Tomb 

I love this series! So happy to see the culture being taken seriously and receiving it’s much deserved flowers. Well done Thrasher!

This is the best series Thrasher has ever done.

I absolutely love this series. Not only do you get a history about the spot in general, and some of the important skating events that have taken place there, but you also get a deep dive into the materials that were used to build it, who built it, why they built it, why the ledges and benches and flat spots look the way they do due to the prevailing art style at the time. It's not just a reflection on people skating that spot, it's a reflection on how the spot influenced skaters. It's amazing.

This series is the best set of videos on the internet right now. I am loving them.

Props to everyone who got a trick(s) there but Rizzo absolutely killed that spot! Skaters should call it "Rizzo's Tomb".

Skating with valuable history and architecture. !00%

Virginian here. A lot of civil war monuments turned into spots in the last 5 years, conversations like this is educating better about the civil war then most classrooms

Honestly guys this series is pure Gold !!! Much props for this one

This series hits on the element of street skating that makes it so infinitely watchable

Best vid series ever. Thank you for the informative content.

This series is Gold. More Pls.

I’m addicted to this series. Great work!!

Great video, this spot is relatively close by but far too gnarly for me. Amazing presentation and accurate historical info, hell yeah

Once again...Gold

Love this series! I’m a landscape architect and often times people call that material slate but it’s actually Bluestone. In this case natural cleft bluestone which means it has that irregular cleft surface. The alternative would be a thermal finish where they take a torch to it and flame off the imperfections.

This is when Thrasher mixes with PBS

Love this series so much. Please keep it coming

Super fascinating series. Love learning the historical context of these spots.

Seeing Popalardo nose manny this in Mosaic blew my mind when I was younger

Best series, thank you! Can't wait for the next one!

I just love all these facts, trivia, stories and skate-[archite]-ctonic type analysis! Well done!

This is what i love about skate culture. All of a sudden i get a lecture about american history and architecture. Thank you, interesting in many ways!

Get so hyped when I see these on my feed!

Leaning into this kind of educational content is a big win. Keep it up Thrasher.

I appreciate all these videos are releasing so close to each other now, one of my favorite series for skateboarding

could watch these all day love the history and deep dive. we need more

I appreciate architecture. I love these episodes their very interesting. Skateboarding & architecture definitely compliment each other & go hand in hand

That was a pretty good documentary! Cool combination of skating and history.

Don't take spots for granite

I adore this series. Please keep going.

More of this history and skate history.

PLEASE KEEP DOING THIS SERIES

Best series ever! Keep up the good work!

I love spots like this so much. Hit a big ledge, then land into this skinny downhill death ramp with a double bump ride away. Chefs kiss skating. edit: Props Aaron Herrington🤘🏻

I wanna be as passionate and knowledgeable as this guy about anything

best series possible

every time i watch this show.. best thing ever

I love that skateboarding has this ‘adult’ side to it nowadays

Dude that symbol of the skater raging against the brutalist mod machine gets me goin.

Best series! THANK YOU Ted & Thrasher!

lol that first fall brought back memories, i used to love bushes because they "didnt hurt at all"(compared to concrete)

Bangin' as per usual. I'm sure everyone here would love an episode dedicated to how these episode are researched and made! Cheers!

dear god these are fantastic

Absolutely love these. Thank you again.

That spot looks pretty hard man. Props to anyone who lands something there

Context is everything! Enjoying these history lessons

Best series jn a while, Im not from the US, always assumed this was some Washington DC tucked away spot, thanks for the total breakdown

Best series! So sick!

I always saw this spot in skatevids : thank you 🙏 Thrasher for this fantastic series.

This is great content. More plz.

I could watch these forever

Top notch narration.

Jesus you guys are bangin these out!

these nyc episodes are good reminders that Yaje was putting it down, even as a kid!

I had no idea what that spot was. Terrific as always!

Keep these coming!!

best series

Awesome content thank you

Keep em coming! These are great

The next series should Be Philly, it had 3 plazas within a block of each other, but are now all gone. Lots of history to be told there.

Killer series 🙌🏾

Thrasher getting educational, these are really interesting.

Rohan hit all the crazy east coast spots

These are the best

loved this

And I'm out here barely doing 5-0s on a baby ledge. These guys are of a different caliber

keep these coming please 👏

Keep going guys!

Fantastic

Love it ! More, Please !

Amazing Series. But also, what jacket is that?! 😂

These are great.

"Then a well meaning parks department person..." Robert Moses has entered the chat.

Keep em coming

this was as relaxing and entertaining as watching 'Dr. Katz'

Edutainment!!

My favorite trick was mark suciu's 180 switch 5-0 revert. The way he made that spot his bitch. He even ollies down the skinny ass second slanted kinked ledge. Savage man

'..Something simple as a noseblunt..' Excuse me? Yeah, nah...this series is awesome and I'm just gonna throw a Ted Barrow for SOTY, because this is important.

Gold!

More please.

3:43 I'm waiting for GT 😂😂😂😂 I WAS ABOUT GET PISSED OFF

Who's buried in Grant's tomb? Sick af ledge tricks I'd never try.

All of those tricks done, were sick!

Skateboarders we bring places to life 🤟🏿

Honorable mention to Eddie Cernikeys clip that didn't get put in 👊

I now know about ledges. 👍👍

Tiago is a beast, gnarliest make ever

wish he was my history teacher

You’d better get an AIA award for this series or something

That BS Noseblunt by Justin Henry was exquisite 😲

Honest question. 4:58 is matt reason sw/ nose grind at love park. What’s that have to do with grants tomb? Is the same style of “beveled” marble/granite?

More!

awesome!

where is Bodelazzi sw fs blunt?

It would be cool if someone smith grinded it

Upper west side skate lore!

As much as I love this series, I wish we got more My Wars.

Imagine a Pupecki grind in there

Pulaski, Love too please
