Some of you may already have heard about Rollfest – the annual gathering that brings polish rollerbladers together during one summer week at seaside resort Triocity. This year we celebrated the 10th anniversary of this crazy event which was special in every possible way. Since 2009 Rollfest was able to serve as a gathering for even more participants due to the Baltic Games festival, which is treated as the climax of the Rollfest. I can easily say that's the biggest and most prestigious skatepark contest throughout the year. With attendance of bladers as Alex Broskow, Erik Bailey, Fredrik Andersson, Alex Burston, Dre Powell, Nils Jansons, Mark Wojda, Fritz Peitzner, Josh Glowicki, Scott Quinn or Dominik Wagner – just to name a few – you can be sure to expect a show of highest levels!
The summer was super busy for Hedonskate Team – we had two big tours: one through Sweden and the one through Romania. Since the whole Hedonskate Team consists of 15 people we had the possibility to send different riders to all the trips. Yet we felt it was way too long that we hadn't had a gathering of a complete team in one place so we thought about another adventure – this time a more relaxed one with no hurry and deadlines, more focused on getting photos for the upcoming 2011 Hedonskate calendar and getting the crew together.
I will be just repeating myself by writing that this youngster has mad skills, raw talent and an awesome brother who is a professional video editor which as we all know is crucial to get some good recognition. Yet even the best conditions for developing a rollerblading 'career' are nothing without your own will and love for the sport. Nils has both, there is no doubt about it. While I have to remind some of our team riders to send some clips or photos from time to time, Nils is bombing my e-mail box constantly with new stuff by himself. I'm sure he would be ripping with the same level even if he wouldn't have any sponsors or outside support. During tours Nils is always skating no matter what – bad spots, good spots, skate alone or with a large group of people – no problem with that. As he has just matured, a true rollerblader soul is fully awaken – skate hard and party even harder! I'm sure he is the right man in the right place - Nils Jansons is 18. Nils Jansons is in constant progress. Nils Jansons is the future...
Radek Kojtych, Przemek Madej, Mateusz Radziszewski, Nils Jansons, Martins Jansons and Sebastian Gruba went on a skate-trip to Riga. Besides some good park-skating, the edit also shows that the Polish skaters are not afraid of tackling some grimy spots that require a bit of creativity! Nice trip!
