Announced just a few weeks ago, the upcoming NYC Street Invite is set to leave a lasting impression. Our contributor Ryan Loewy talked with Billy O'Neill about the new real street competition the best bladers in the industry have been invited to compete in.
Today we decided to shred Billy’s old stomping grounds, Staten Island. We first cruised to Brooklyn to his favorite bagel shop. When we got the first spot, decided to skip it and continue to the second spot.
The NYC scene has been blowing up over the last year or two - again becoming what it was years ago: one of the global meccas of rollerblading that defines a culture. One of the companies playing a part in this transformation is the online magazine Art of Rolling (AOR). We hope you enjoy this interview with Angelo Ferrer, the man behind AOR!
Almost a year has past, and there's still no love in the heart of the city. Thanks to contributed footage from Austin Paz, Jon Jenkins & Joey Scannella... we have just enough to move on to the next one. -Adam Caroselli
The time has come and the final competitor list for the 2011 NYC Street Invitational is finished. We have taken our time choosing the absolute best street skaters from all over the world to bring to New York City and we think we have a pretty amazing competitor list put together. Now onto those Wild Card spots that we have promised: Due to the nature of the competition we will not have time for a qualifications or Amateur competition. Our main priority is to give those invited to the event every opportunity to shred what we will be putting in front of them. We will be accepting suggestions for the 5 remaining Wild Card spots for the NYC Street Invitational. The top 5 submitted bladers will be invited to the competition. One submission per person so choose wisely.
The NYC Street Invitational is a Pro/Am invite-only event founded by Pro blader and long time resident of New York City, Billy O’Neill. The event will be a completely legitimate, real “street” contest taking place underneath a highway in the heart of Williamsburg, Brooklyn. Permits and insurance are already secured for the location and all obstacles will be available within the space provided. Unlike other street contests there will be no issue with the police breaking up the event and there will be no traveling from spot-to-spot. This is going to be one of the first, fully legitimate, real “street” contests since IMYTA. Many of the world’s top Pro’s have already confirmed that they will be here to battle for the $10,000 that will be distributed among the top 3. Make your plans now, because this will be a rollerblading event to remember!
