It is known, without question, that New York is one of the most celebrated and active scenes in rollerblading. It has produced a plethora of companies, talented skaters, and competitions that have left a major impact on the rollerblading community. Competitions, in particular, are the one catalyst that I believe really brings people out and draws the blade community closer together people come out to show what they've got and, at times, unconsciously, to support each other, which in turn, unifies the scene as a whole. Young guns and old timers, all age ranges, colors and creeds come out, all for the love of rollerblading. So when I heard that Trevor Johnson was putting together a new street competition in Queens, I was inclined to ask him a few questions and help spread the word. I sat down with Trevor to talk about the need for another street competition, how he got the idea, who he's working with, and more, all resulting in a testament to the fact that New York truly is one of the greatest scenes in the world.
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!
We teamed up with the founders of Let's Roll NY to bring you a behind the scenes look of the Let's roll NY sessions.
This edit is brought to you by a chill session in Queens, NY that turned into a line frenzy. Trevor Johnson, now residing in Long Island still makes time to come out and kill it. Enjoy.
Finally after filming little by little throughout our travels, summertime going into fall, myself and Val have come up with this edit to show to you all. Another notch in the headboard will be added to the other edits I have sent your way. Val is one of the biggest reasons why I love editing. I did his first skate edit, which was also my first, with a tiny home video camera and iMovie. Happy B-DAY VAL, you are the man and always will be. -Cesar Macay

Alex Ryerson comes up with this nice edit in which he skates some hot spots in Brooklyn and Queens. Apparently, New York has a special charme for Rollerbladers. Is this due to their spots or to the skaters and organizations (such as IrollNY) that are pushing the envelope there? The scene is definitely growing fast. Keep your eyes peeled for some more New York footage in the next weeks and months.
