My blading photos from this summer (so far)...

[tim_adams]

NEW PIC ADDED 8/20... taken by Nick DiMarchi, who is also the dopest.

Lefty roll up to pull my legs up to my chest 180.

Been waiting to share these for a while. Some of them are repeats, some brand new, and some are included in the Rochester scene report of the new Balance Mag.

All photos by Jim Haschmann. He's the dopest.


First, my newest favorite. I think I made a post on be-mag several months ago calling this out. Finally made it happen. It was pretty intense. About five minutes after this was taken a cop came flying over the bridge into the nearest intersection, looked all around, did a U-turn, and floored it in the opposite direction back over the bridge. Apparently somebody either snitched or thought this was a suicide attempt. Ford Street Bridge, Rochester, NY.

BTW, this is the bridge I cross nearly every single day (via car or bike or sometimes walking)... skating it was VERY satisfying (note the lower left part of the following photo for size of this bridge.) O_o

Second angle of my old sig. One of my favorite spots... it's a nice launch. Stale Japan 180.

I found this ramp folded up, literally right where it is in this photo, just leaning against the base of this pole. So I unfolded it, launched out, stalled the pole above the parking sign, and jumped back into the ramp. Then it rained and I think we ate burritos.

[fast eddie]

Who is the photographer?


Jim Haschmann.

I really hope this issue gets him noticed by the print magazines, he really should be getting paid for what he does :D

[r.s.]

What did you do in the bridge pic?

[Roc.N.Rol]

You're the flyest.

[Mudhut Jollyrancher]

bridge photo is incredible

[Robert1]

So tight. You make me want to skate my Thrones again...:cool:

[fast eddie]

What did you do in the bridge pic?

gapped from the lightpost :lol: gap from the top flat of the bridge to the 2nd angled part, hop rivets, gap to flat...?

[Tra]

so juiced you did the Ford street bridge. fuck yes.
amazing content coming out of you guys this year, excited to visit next week.

[tim_adams]

Added a new pic... the fuck grinding one.

And in the bridge pic, I rolled down the first (very slight) down, jumped into the next one (see pic), and rolled down each of the rest, hopping over each row of bolts. Then I landed pretty much on my face at the bottom... lol. I'll go back and land it soon... but after two attempts, I was concerned about being seen/caught, so we split.

And thanks.

[Ozzie Sandoval]

Jim Haschmann is fucking awesome, does he also rollerblade, or used to?

[ericmilliren]

so sick tim, there are some gems in there for sure!

He did some bad ass moves in this :

Impeccable Style, Flawless work...

You seem like you'd have some dope steeze to your tricks. Those pics were so dope! yellow skates ftw! The bridge pic is one of my favorites, it's just such a perfect spot for a photo. Props.

[bobgross]

Ridiculous.
RE DICK LESS

[tim_adams]

Thank you. And bump.

And yellow skates ftw, indeed. I miss them already.

[rol SYR]

one more photo to add to your post coming tomarrow Tim!

[tim_adams]

Aw sheeeeit. I think I know what you're referring to.

Check this thread tomorrow if you wanna peep it. I promise something kinda sorta decent.

Also, new sig.

[JP_cpimag.com]

cool stuff bro. Yellow skates are always awesome in pics : )

[s.]

awesome

[codyreffner]

bridge pic is raw, perfect picture

[Boris from Russia]

Doing rollerblading the way it should be done!
As always from you, Tim!

[antoine myles]

Good stuff.

Always been a fan of your skating.

[nameant]

First pic looks so awesome.

And thanks.fuckin gnarly. I love all the photos my dude, keep up the shredding. The bridge one is totally motivating me to go back and land this baskettball hoop deal that I cess slid down. I was having the same problem of flying downwards at the ground and just eating the floor. Yours is much more gnar of course but inspiring.

[tim_adams]

Thanks dudes. Added this pic of the bridge to the original post for scale.

That's the arch I jumped into...

[r.s.]

holy shit. you are a mad man.

[Roc.N.Rol]

Nick, where you at with this mystery pic??

[Village Idiot]

awesome skating and good pics, Tim.

[rolla4life69]

[salomonskater]

Oh shit, I just realised you were this dude that made this crazy nogrindblading edit. Props.

sig fail

[parker]

tim, these are all dope. i especially like the straight air. it looks like you're doing a switch makio in the air.

[CHEN]

sicks pictures man. How the hell do your skates stay yellow hahaha

[Matthew Shannon]

sicks pictures man. How the hell do your skates stay yellow hahaha

im just guessing that it is some kind of polyurethane paint?

WHOOAAAAAAA. Shit is so tight. Nick is so nice with it.

[Mr. T]

How in god's name did Jim not approve of that back torque pic for the Balance article?? If he would have previewed that with us I would have called that pic 100% in.

[tim_adams]

sig fail
Nah, that was intentional.


sicks pictures man. How the hell do your skates stay yellow hahaha
I sanded them, spray painted them, sanded them, spray painted them, sanded them, and spray painted them. In that order. In one day. Then I tried really hard not to fall for the month or so that I rocked them. I also resprayed them at one point. I dunno... if you spray them properly, the paint is pretty durable. And it was just regular safety yellow spray paint... nothing special.

I dunno. I remember asking why the pic wasn't in the final batch. Oh well.

[tim_adams]

Friday night bump.

[ift]

So wait... you're trying to roll ALL the segments of the bridge, even the last last one? If so :shock: :shock: :shock:



Excellent pic post of course.

[Nino]

Props on the Ford Street bridge, that picture is wild.

[tim_adams]

Yeah, I rolled them all, then landed forward on the sidewalk and fell back the first time (no prob), then tried really hard to get it the second time and fell forward (pretty much on my face).

My plan next time is to just jump over the last down with a big 180. I think it'll be WAY easier to land it fakie and with less downward momentum. That's the plan, anyway. It's really hard to test this kind of thing out without just going for it.

And thanks Nino!

[Hakuna]

Oh my god, these are so good. That dam looks amazing too, if someone could only put a ledge or a rail sticking out...

+Rep for you sir

[Greg Schlosser]

that's crazy, you're crazy

[ift]

My plan next time is to just jump over the last down with a big 180. I think it'll be WAY easier to land it fakie and with less downward momentum.

Yeah that's what I assumed you were doing when I saw the pic. Either the reality of that last section or the angle of the picture make rolling the last section after rolling the others seem like a physics fail. Looks like you'd shoot right off of it, but I guess not?

[tim_adams]

Yeah, I'm hoping I'll have the momentum to shoot off over the last down... and by down, I mean the fourth down (not the last really steep one... just in case that's what you mean.).

And final bump for this thread. Thanks for the kind words, everyone.

[codywi608]

Some really tight creative stuff.

[alf]

always a pleasure to see your blading

[alf]

PS. Loving the Bridge adn Dam Photos, that Dam Looks sooooo fucking tight.
