Elliot Stevens seems as enthusiastic about Winterclash as we at Be-Mag. There's only one thing that gets us just as hyped up as having Winterclash in sight and that's sightings of Elliot skating. If you feel the same, the coming weekend may too result in an awesome overload for you. Guess we all have to deal with things like this from time to time. Good thing Winterclash is only once a year. Actually... wait a minute...?
Preparing for months for one of the biggest competitions in Florida, Bladesgiving has turned out to be one of the funnest and biggest rollerblading events in the Southern United States along with the Pow-wow. And we are only in our second year! Skaters gathered from all over the country for a chance to rank up the WRS points and take home some cash and the huge trophy. Tim Franken, out of San Diego, Razors rider Wake Schepman, out of PA, Pro SSM rider Joey Chase and Razors flow Sammy Chase, out of Orlando, just to name a few. Also, coming all the way from Canada was our good friend Kevin Lapierre, who hurt his ankle warming up, and had to drop out of the contest. He made that huge trip, and our sympathies are with him, and we hope he recovers very soon.
"There is a rollerblading festival going on under the highway bridge here in Brooklyn" I heard someone saying when we entered the venue. "People jumping over cars, grinding on a truck – you have to see this, it's crazy". Yeah the New York City Street Invite 2011 was an unique experience for everyone involved. Billy O'Neill and Daniel Kinney (founder and organizer of BCSD) don't talk much – they are doers and do things the right and professional way. I guess people recognize this and that's why the NYC Street Invite gathered bladers from all over the world to battle it out on some real street one-of-a-kind obstacles especially created and set-up for this contest. So Billy and Daniel did not only take care of the obstacles for the contest, they also made sure that they've had all permissions and insurances needed for the contest. We at Be-Mag also felt that this contest was going to be a big deal, so we decided to send a team to New York to cover the event properly. But good things take time.
While Sam DeAngelis puts the final touches on his edit of the NYC Street invite, here is a photoset to hold you over.
Aarin Gates loves to blade and smile. It's infectious. She'll make the whole crew smile without saying a word. She has great energy, and continues to stomp out every trick with passion and style. I've been blading for 18+ years and can honestly say that I have never seen a female with the strength and style that Aarin possesses. So today we present to you, her "One Minute One spot" filmed at Santa Ana Skate Park. Special thanks goes out to Xsjado, Create Originals, Denial and SDSF Blade Shop, the people who support Aarin.
Here is few clips of Mr. Nicky Adams. We filmed in Montreal at SouthParc (skatepark of the Montreal classic WRS competition) last week in order to offer you this short video edit. Nicky was in the Salomon Pro Team back in the day and he won the X-games in 1999. He had few exposure these last years but he never left rollerblading. He is one of the most professional skaters I ever skated and filmed with. He laces his tricks first try most of the time and always does it with the biggest smile and swag ever.
On March 26, 2011 the third annual New Orleans Bayou Bash went down with over 20 competitors. Competitors were mainly from the south coast (Texas, Atlanta, Florida, Mississippi) and local New Olreanians which was great. Everything from the hammers, to the burgers, to the after party was amazing.
We are back! The tradeshow just opened and it's shopping time. The big players in the rolling industry are representing at this year's BCSD - not only with their Pro riders, but also with their latest products. Steve Henry gives an insight into the tradeshow action with this edit here. Peep it.
Besides a few phone calls as of recent, Mathieu Ledoux was much the same to me as many of you out there. A fresh face, with mind boggling new maneuvers. One difference is I in fact had been following Mathieu's skating for a couple of years now. Not knowing anything of him personally. I viewed each section as a fan, and looked forward to the next.
Gabriel's skating is proper in so many different ways. Since his first days in the international spotlight, coming from his homeland of Austria, he's been presenting himself and skating at a very high level of maturity. Whether it's gnarly stunts, skateparks, or just shredding, he approaches everything with his trademark speed, fluidity, and refined style. Gabe simply kills everything and anything put in his path. We couldn't be happier to have him as part of the C.O. team ranks. -Hakeem Jimoh
Marc Moreno is a smooth dude. This past year he's come over from his native home of Spain and traveled across the United States introducing people to his energetic style and savage attitude. On and off wheels, this guy is a great person to be around and is always the life of the party. His skating exudes confidence, class, and raw skill. These are just some of the reasons why we are so glad to have him as one of the newest members of the C.O. familia. Welcome to the team compadre. -Hakeem Jimoh
At Create, we try to represent the highest level of blading possible, whether it's through our team, products, or our commitment to our loyal supporters. For some time now we've had the desire to start an international team that shares our same vision for excellence. Create Originals is proud to introduce three new international pros to the team. We would like to welcome Marc Moreno, Gabriel Hyden, and Takeshi Yasutoko to the family. Thank you always for your support. -Hakeem Jimoh

For the past few months it's been pretty hectic. I'm currently filming for three sections, and trying to manage a full time school schedule, however I managed to get some clips from our weekly park sessions. Big thanks to everyone who helped me film, and a special shout out to Matt Genna. Hope you all enjoy! -Jon Fromm
