As 2011 draws to close, we can look back fondly on a year full of incredible edits. Hammers have been laid and creative lines have been laced. So while you’re recovering from the festive celebrations, crack open another can and have a look back at this small reminder. Here are the ten most popular videos from 2011!
Are you as excited about the new Ground Control video as we are? You probably should be. For over a decade Ground Control have been leading the pack in frame design and have become a staple in the rollerblading community. In order to commemorate the videos release we’ll be giving away three free copies in a prize raffle!
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.
It has been really tough watching Guillaume Roy (owner of Lylac Skateshop) run around town and work his magic to make this competition happen. It makes me proud to be a part of the Montreal Classic. Year after year Danny Laroche and Guillaume Roy continue to organized this amazing event. A lot has changed with the Montreal scene since the very first Classics in 2001.
One of the biggest and sickest skate contests located under a Brooklyn bridge is over and out. Alex Broskow is the man of the weekend taking home 5.000$ and the highly coveted title of the first NYC Street invite champion. One of our core filmers Sam DeAngelis is already going through 5GB of footage he gathered over the past weekend. To ease the waiting he comes up with a short trailer for the upcoming be-mag edit. Keep your eyes peeled for more gold clips coming out of his hands.

Here is another edit from the NYC Street Invite 2011. David Bryan was closer than everyone else to the action that went down at the unique obstacles during the NYC Street Invite. Keep your eyes glued to the screen. You won't regret it.
Held on May 29th was the first street comp held in Florida in a while – the O-Town Throwdown. People gathered from all over the state, Georgia, and even Tennessee for a chance at the $300 first prize. This is the official 2011 O-Town Throwdown edit!
'Fester' is a video starring Damien Wilson, John Bolino, Casey McFarland, Lyle Shivak, Joey Chase and me, Nick Wood. For this project we did it the old fashion way, by getting a bunch of tough ass bladers together and putting in over a year of blood, sweat and tears. This is a preview of the "Blood, Sweat and Tears" part. I appreciate the newer style and trendy skating these days, but our guys – like I said – are hard core and still put their ass on the line when shooting for a video.
Orlando, most of the time, marks the meeting point for all of us bladers here in the Sunshine State. Also, one of the main reasons we decided to hold the first of many strings of street competitions here in Florida. Meet up spot was Barnett Skatepark. A small park with a perfect mini and an across and down rail to warm up at. Waited there for about an hour for people to show up until we headed out to the first spot. Before we headed out I made sure everyone had directions and also got with the judges to make sure we were on the same page. Lending their knowledge about the sport and tallying points was Shima Pro Rider, Joey Chase; Razors Flow Rider, Sammy Chase; Be-Mag Drama Queen, Rob Squire; and local skate veteran, Nate Ent.

This is the intro for the Fester Team Video. We made it just a Trailer for the whole Video because in real life thats what intro's are. So don't go b*tching about how the tricks here are also in the sections. We had a song picked for the intro for a long time but at the last minute I heard this one and knew it was the right feel for Fester. So, if you like this trailer there is plenty more where that came from, so go out and buy the video. -Nick Wood
Every frame has a story to tell. Every scratch is a letter, every chip a flare of creativity, every mark a test of endurance, every groove a path of accomplishment. Every ramp, every rail, every fall, every cheer, every journey. Every trick you land and every trick you don't, carved into a layer of plastic, concealed beneath our feet. Every frame has a story to tell. This is ours.

The new Ground Control F1 XS frame is available worldwide now. The frame is completely redesigned and is also the introduction of the first frame for GC Pro Rider, Joey Chase. Known for doing some of the biggest gaps and incredible stunts in the game, Joey was the perfect guy to receive the F1 XS as his signature frame. After all, if he can trust them, so can you. “Light but solid as shit! I don’t really trust any other frame, and with the bigger groove I can grind anything without getting caught up.” – Joey Chase
View the SSM first and second blood squad coming together in this bombastic new edit. It looks like the SSM team doesn't care about spots, they just shred. The more disgusting they look, the more they are going to shred them.
