Rob Pruett what can I say, I’ve known this guy/machine for some time now and while I’ve seen rollerblading change over ten years and the tricks progress from a soul on a kink rail to someone throwing down a tech 540° to whatever. It's amazing, don’t get me wrong. It’s fantastic to see the dedication and commitment that guys have to do tricks like this, but it’s also amazing to see one of the very few people left that just goes big, one of the guys who just gets up after taking the skin to the bone after bailing on a 25 foot gap and then just getting up and trying again. Kids take note, there is another side to rollerblading, it’s in the form of RP.
In 2001 I briefly met a man who everyone was trying to speak to, all the young skater kids wanted to see his next big trick and I have to admit I did, too. This man was Richard John Taylor who had been ripping up the scene since he turned professional at the age of 15 after winning the World Amateur International Inline Skate Series. If you have never heard of Richard, someone you know would have. All you have to do is see videos of Richard to see why he was so admired and famous for his upbeat attitude to life, he coined the phrase “It’s all good” and those three words could not encapsulate his character better.
So the word is out and all have been told “the Gathering is Near”. Once again Rampworx Skatepark plays host to one of the UK’s premier rolling events SLAMM JAMM. This will be the 8th year that the jamm has taken place and like every year it promise’s to be a great gathering of the UK’s rolling community.
BHC has just announced the annual Richard Taylor Memorial Session at Barry Skatepark. The session is going down on the 5th of July. Be there!
The Conference recently updated their website with Richard Taylor's section from the BHC video called Nation 4. The skating is fantastic, so check it out.
There gonna be a Richard Tayler Weekend in the UK. Check out the flyer or the website for detailed information...
The Richard Tayler Memorial Skatepark will open their doors in August. Please check their website for detailed information. Here we got the first plan of the skatepark:
The World Rolling series was introduced into Relentless Energy NASS for the first time in 2009, bringing an international list of riders like never before. Year on year the progression of inline is awe inspiring as the riders tear the course apart with a mix of high flying acrobatics and technical wizardry. The likes of Brian Aragon (US), Steve Swain (UK) & Roman Goadenaire (FRA) are regular podium finishers.
