I took this photo of Timm Kittlitz while we were driving through the tiny European country of Lichtenstein. We drove around, searching for something fun to end the day with, as we had already shot some hammers earlier. Luckily, we found this small bank behind a bush and an electricity box. Timm ended the day with a steezy Fishy on a unique spot. — Lui Summer
Jeremy Townsend hosted the belated second showing of the Beat The Chump competition in Seattle at the City of Bellvue’s indoor park. It was a morning-time event, with guys like Jeremy, Rob Inks, and Aaron Feinberg judging (and as seen above, shredding). The event welcomed bladers of all levels, and had prominent area dudes like Randy Juarez, Kawika Jarman, Brandon Weller, Jake Dotson, along with with up and coming stars like Adam Exline, JT Truitt, Dustin Jamieson and Brendan Phillips in attendance. Check out the action in the edit, along with another pic and full results beneath the break! — ONE
Stop, rant, and roll! This week Krans brings us some questionable blade ‘news’ regarding Shaq, adds perspective to the many digs at blading taking place in the swelling social network blogosphere, shares ways to spread blading, finds an edit that didn’t drown in a sea of hate when it hit the news sites, and realizes, thanks to Winterclash, that rollerblading is far from dead. But then you already knew that, right? — ONE
Carlos Montenegro, or as other rollers in NYC know him, “Loso,” laced this Topsoul in complete darkness. We began our day around 10 a.m. at Penn Station, waiting for people to meet up with us. But after many flakes, we were able to arrive at Drop In skatepark with only five minutes to spare. After walking tracks, hoping trains, and skating it all the way up hill from a long travel, we barely made it in. Everyone knows that most skateparks charge an entrance fee, but luckily the guys over at Drop In were kind enough to let us in for free after hearing our struggle to get there. One minute after setting up my camera and having a friend hold my flash by hand, I was able to capture this shot with only the use of my manual focus and sense of hearing. The run up of the ramp was the only indication that Carlos was taking off. I was set at 0.004 sec (1/250) at an aperture of f3.5 on my regular 18mm kit lens. To get a better perspective of how the day went feel free to check out the set. — David Toro (okasu)
Mark Heuss just sent out this bonus slam edit from PARTY. Filmed in Munich, Berlin, Ruhrpott, Nuremberg, Frankfurt, Mannheim, Regensburg, Budapest and Barcelona, and shot with a Canon XH-A1 (sometimes with the Redrock Micro and Canon FD lenses), this edit with no color correction and no music is all about pure pain. You asked where the fall sections on today’s videos went, and here’s your answer. — ONE
Our dudes in Poland sent this through today (Thanks, Bart), so we thought we’d put it up for your viewing pleasure. There’s sections from bladers that show off the scene in Cracow City. Though we can’t understand anything anyone says, the international language of blading, and passion for blading, translates just fine. — ONE
