This morning was a pretty miserable rainy day in Vancouver. When I got to the shop, I wasn’t really in a mood for working for a change. So I decided to enjoy my McDonald's coffee & muffin while watching the new Traitement DVD which arrived at the shop a few days ago.
Apparently, the Canadian rollers like to combine different disciplines. Here we are talking again about rolling and parkour. Shop task owner Leon Basin from Vancouver simply explains his rolling style by quoting Friedrich Nietzsche: "You have your way. I have my way. As for the right way, the correct way, and the only way, it does not exist."
Some months ago Leon Basin (owner Shop Task) sent us a One Minute Spot edit. Since he really like the concept he just finished his second "One Minute One Spot" edit that he would like to share with the world. Leon always tries to find new ways to improve his skating. Here in this edit he takes again a different approach combining his rolling skills with some parcouring elements. A great watch.
This spot is a school well known to most local skaters, its on 17th and Windsor in the heart of the city. There has been some recent pressure washing off wax activity here which may lead to capping, so I thought I should get some clips before the school becomes unskateable. This place is like a little skatepark, there are tons of ledges, some decent lines, weird shit in the front, and a guardrail that we cut the middle support of to skate the rail. This was shot on Sunday August 22, 2010 on a cloudy and sunny day in the always beautiful city of Vancouver.

With this One Minute One Spot edit we want to take the chance to introduce you to the person in charge of Shop Task (Skateshop in Canada): Leon Basin. The Israel native is not only good at pushing Rollerblading in Canada through his Rollerblade-Shop. He is more than that. Leon has been rollerblading more than half of his life and has been an inspiration in terms of Rollerblading for a lot of people that skate with him. Even though Leon is a pretty busy man since he also recently opened a Shop-Task store front in Downtown Vancouver he still found some time to film some extraordinary stuff for be-mag. Peep it!
Half way through the 7th grade, a new kid arrived at my school in a town of about 1300 people. For what ever reason I can't recall, I took it upon myself to sit near and strike up a conversation with him. One of the first things I remember him say...
