The Zumiez couch tour happened in the chi yesterday, in the iconic spot we know as Daley Plaza, ppl set up their colorful ramps and and Chicago skaters like Seasoned Chicago native skater, Navarre Brown went to work with a double flip over the couch from a little bump, Tylor Horton, another scene native got a big flip over the couch, as well as a big heel in his instagram story,
NAVARRE ACTION TYLORS STORY CLIPS Aside from the festivities, we caught a few skaters getting a little street action done a little bit away from the main event, Tylor Horton got an Ollie over the gap between the planters and sadly ate shit on a back 3, and @flawless.jimmy on instagram caught a kickflip off of a higher part of spot near the divvy station, caught clean into the street,
@flawless.jimmy on insta Multiple selfies with Beagle from Shakejunt from different skaters, were made also, as beagle was involved in the setup of the event probably.

Its summertime, that means clips galore!
Fa skateshop’s final video turned out really good, very solid part from Steffen Watts who’s been killing it for years in the scene, very strong part from Tylor Horton as well, very fun vibes in the video! Levi Miller from MN made it out to the Chi to get a Kickflip manual kick flip out, on the main Ledge at the P.O. Jake Smith Got a sick Varial Flip into the street from a ledge, those guys seemed to have came to the city and turned up fr in that video, its that time of year in the city where things are ripe for skating, and me being injured I might have to turn up next year myself unfortunately but theres always next year, and I know the homies will be right there too. Shout out to Fa skateshop crew and Filmer Austin DePiano! Enjoy the summer guys!

FA SKATE SHOP “FAST ACTION” (2026)
As a fan of what was once the skate shop I hope this edit means they are coming back with a new location to be honest, if not its cool for sure, might me like a “last bash” or “go out with a bang” type of situation with this video in that this video may be a goodbye, whatever they decide to do, i whole heartedly wish all the crew good luck – Miles
