Leo Baker has a new Spitfire wheel graphic (which we are HERE for), so of course we teamed up with KCDC Skateshop and JuneShine Hard Kombucha to celebrate with an epic evening of Punk Rock Karaoke with about 75 of our closest friends. We heard that if you grab a JuneShine and start singing karaoke that Nora will actually just appear, kind of like Beetlejuice, but more fun and better at skating.

When there’s not enough mics, you can always just pick up the trusty Quell megaphone!

Pretty sure they were singing The Used in this shot….

It’s not a room full of non-men skaters if you’re belting out “What’s Up”!

Man down :( Thank you JuneShine for stocking us up for the party!

Even the energy after the event was hyped! Also - huge shout out to Abi, front and center, our lead filmer and Issue 004 cover photographer for documenting the whole day on film!

NY is so much better with these babes in it - We love you Leo and Mel!!

Freedom Skatepark kicks off the winter with Women + Queer Skate Sessions

When the rad dudes at Freedom Skatepark reached out to us about hosting a Women + Queer skate sessions called Mercury 13 we knew we couldn’t pass up the opportunity. It was awesome to come back to help this year and skate the new obstacles repurposed from House of Vans in Philadelphia, built by 5th Pocket. The park is so welcoming and had something for every level. Clif Bar provided the yummy snacks, and we had lots of raffle prizes to give out from: Krux Trucks, Independent, Bronson Berrings and Creature. Check it out this winter and keep an eye out on Freedom's Instagram for more events.

See our photos from Mercury 13 below

Thanks so much to our sponsors for this killer raffle: Krux, Independant, Bronson and Creature.

Celebrating a Legend: Quell Issue 004 Party Photo Recap

The most wonderful time of the year has finally come. On September 28th we released Issue 004 of our magazine with a party at one of our favorite bars, The Flower Shop. Our cover star, Jaime Reyes herself came through to christen the mag, and signed copies for everyone. Even Lizzie Armanto couldn’t help but snag a signature.

We enjoyed the awesome alcoholic kombucha, Junshine, and honestly had one of the most packed parties yet. Our DJ Carli Nicholas held it down for the night. Lots of legends in the room– The ladies of Skate Kitchen joined us off the wrap of their show, our fave Leo Baker and some even spotted birdman himself, Tony Hawk. We ended the night with a raffle, thank you to Nike SB !

Thank you to everyone for coming and making Issue 004 happen.

Quell + Nike SB host International Womxn’s Day Beginner Clinic

We teamed up with Nike SB to celebrate International Womxn’s by throwing an event with local skateshop, KCDC.

The turnout was incredible with folx from age 4–50! We huddled before the session to learn each other’s names and goals for the day. We were so inspired by how many people came to step on a board for the very first time!

Check out the photos from the event below
