As I sit here in Istanbul Airport, ever alert for the need to dash to the bathroom to avoid a calamity, I think about the events that led me here. Over a year ago a friend called me and told me that there was a group of skaters coming from Dakar to do a show in 'Parc de la Ciutadella' as part of a Dakar/Barcelona collaboration of culture. There was a meet the day before, and the skaters asked if I would join them. I arrived at this palace of a house in the centre of Barcelona, and found no-one related to the event. I was underdressed and considering leaving, feeling rather out of place. I decided to wait it out and how glad I am that I did.
For this years Grindhouse trip I had something different in mind as what we did in the past years. I didn’t want to tour through Europe, but spend a few days in the mecca of our sport and have a good time there without having the stress of driving the car from one city to another.
What started out as an option for a cheap and efficient form of transportation for the inmates of the infamous Powerhouse in Barcelona, has quickly evolved into a stand-alone branch of Aggressive Skating. Now, a year later you may have noticed these unorthodox looking frames and wheels on display at just about all major shops and retailers. Unorthodox maybe, but only to the eyes of the unengaged. Check out this article and get the low down on the latest trend in blading, or inevitably be passed over by your mates that keep up with the times. And, you better believe they'll be moving fast.
Every single year the Grindhouse team embarks upon a road tour. This year's tour took the German Grindhouse team to Europe's rolling mecca, Barcelona. There, the crew consisting of Sacha Lopez, Daniel Prell, Maik Lojewski, Timm Kittlitz, Alex Rudolf and Daniel Gourski destroyed every obstacle and party place in their path. You know the deal: When the Grindhouse is on tour, madness is the daily routine. Here you can peep the first part of the "Grindhouse Tour 2011 in Barcelona"-series featuring Sacha Lopez. Sacha injured his hands some days before the tour, but obviously this didn't hold him back.
Enanoh, was the name given to Mr Marc Moreno, somewhere around the late 90's back when Marc was the youngest and by far the smallest little lad in amongst a pack of evolving rolling spanish giants. Enanoh, translated from Spanish to English = dwarf. Time, brings great changes, today Marc is the tallest amongst his allies, he is not just an icon to the younger generation but is looked upon as an inspiration amongst many of the Giants who once help to raise a dwarf.
It was a pretty controversial step to start a promotion of a rollerblading movie project with a trailer without any skating shown. Instead, the trailer shows five dudes waking along an avenue. The first "Here We Are" trailer drew different reactions from the audience, dividing the rollerblading community into either lovers or haters. And here they are again with a fresh new leftovers edit and photos from their recent Barcelona trip!
I was in Italy last week and I began to do the write up for our stay in Barcelona when I somehow just deleted the whole thing. What was most interesting to me was that I wasn't mad. I mean, I felt myself start to get mad and start to react like any rational person might after doing such a thing, but this time was different. I felt like I had the option not to. I mean, it already happened, and it was by no means a conscious move towards righteousness but it was already said and done with. So after having to tell Greg and Sven about it I let it go. A pretty awesome transformation on my behalf. For myself anyways.
On day 3 of the tour, we woke up to a sunny Tarragona's day, everything looked perfect, and we decided to go Reus Skatepark to meet with the other bladers and start the sesh. The weather was super hot under the killer spanish sun. For lunch time, we moved to a bar to have some tapas.
We arrived early at the Villanova la Geltru so we decided to eat an early lunch made up purely of meat, grease, fried foods, eggs and grease and went on to the park to represent. It was good to see some familiar faces of the Barcelona scene alongside a ridiculous amount of scooter riders. I had heard scootering was on the rise, but this was absolutely ridiculous. There was over 40 scooter riders per square meter.
Inercia is the most important shop in Spain, supporting a crew of the most representative and best street skaters from Barcelona. This crew just decided to have a chill weekend skating parks in towns around Barcelona, having good times with all the kids and bladers around!

He is on the Razors Flow team as well as on the Thisissoul Team, and can be found skating weekly in Amsterdam or other cities in the Netherlands.
