It's Friday night and the qualification round is underway. Nine of 140 qualifiers compete to make it to tomorrow's AM event for a chance to move onto the Pro finals. As the combatants practice their runs, I met with JC Battle from Canada.
Hi, my name is Erik Burrow and I am a 23 year old Canadian roller from Toronto. The following photographs are a documentation of an amazing year in skating. I have been extremely busy juggling college life, my girlfriend, and a job at Shop-Task. Somewhere in the mix I've found a way to make it all work.
Kevin is from the same town that I grew up in. I remember the first time I saw him at the local park: right away I knew that this kid had true love for blading! He makes me think of myself when I was his age. Kevin is a amazing person. He is humble, respectful and fun to be around with. And the guy can freaking shred! He skates fast, solid and precise like a diamond. It's really inspiring to see him be so passionate and following his dream to be part of our little community. He has not yet beat me to a game of B.L.A.D.E, but I guess it's cause I don't want to play against him anymore. I would get my ass kicked. Merci Kevin pour tout!
Because of the rain, we had to cancel the event which was supposed to be outside. We went to our indoor skatepark to do a Freestyle Bowl contest. The competition was a big success and everyone really enjoyed his day. Our next event will take place the first weekend of July. Thanks to everyone who's supporting us!
We posted up the last section of Canadian video Picture Me Rolling last week. It's been a great journey but sadly all things come to an end. Here's a quick interview with Daniel Lefebre, the creator of Picture Me Rolling, as well as a chance for you to catch up with the video in case you've missed it!
We're back with the final section from the Picture Me Rolling saga. If you haven't been following our releases this winter on Be-Mag take a moment to watch some great skating from some very talented Canadians.
This morning was a pretty miserable rainy day in Vancouver. When I got to the shop, I wasn’t really in a mood for working for a change. So I decided to enjoy my McDonald's coffee & muffin while watching the new Traitement DVD which arrived at the shop a few days ago.
Today, RollToronto presents to you Daniel Lefebre's section from Picture Me Rolling. Dan's skating really speaks for itself. Once you watch this section, you will know who Dan is as a person.
The show is not over yet. It’s now time for Taylor Ritchie to take the stage. Street skating and creativity is where Taylor shines, his skating tends to stray from the norm with tech lines and a trick vocabulary that separate him from the majority of rollerbladers in Canada.
We're back! This week we present to you our second montage for Picture Me Rolling. It features the likes of Mathieu Ledoux, Sean Knight, Luke Porter, Blair Loughhead, Mark Benic and Erik Burrow.

Our good friends at RollToronto.ca posted up a video montage of some friends rolling around the city.
Family Matters started of as a video project with a crew of gypsy skaters from Montreal. The video was filmed with a VX2000 Between the months of April and July 2010 and edited in a day or two. Montreal is a multicultural city with all kinds of people, the skaters here all come from different backgrounds working different careers; French baker, architect, stuntman and plain Gypsies. Skating is the one passion that managed to gather all these individuals together and with it grew friendships behond skating. After sessions are always good times, the night life is really exciting and you can always find a group of the skating scene out partying and most times all the original Family Matters crew out together enjoying this amazing city.
Here's the second State of Mind Webisode of the season: Wild (Woodward) West State of Mind. Some of you may know that I grew up rollerblading. Ya ya fruitbooter! ;) All jokes set aside, I really did love it and feel as though it's helped me become the skier I am today. Last summer, my girl Ashley Battersby and I rolled out to Woodward West in Cali on some windy days to get some foam pit action going. We had a blast, check it out! Right now I'm shredding in Mammoth getting ready for X, next webisode coming soon, stay tuned! -Kaya Turski
We were given the opportunity to watch this edit before it was released. Then we lost the password and couldn't watch it again. Bummer. Thankfully it's public now for everyone to see. Buffering.
