Dear readers, rollerbladers and friends, We are very excited to announce the next step in the future of Be-Mag. What once started as a simple newsletter evolved into a print magazine and your go-to source...

A few weeks back Josip here at Be-Mag asked a few of us to share some thoughts on what we think 2017 will bring for rollerblading. Typical of myself, I couldn't say much other than, "I think it will be...

I don't care about being objective, I always had a thing for Midwestern skating, ever since Hoax II. Now we got that out of the way... Erik Bill's Snake River Special 3 film is like a tutorial on how to...

After more than three years in production, making it almost as expected as the Fiction team video, Vine St's Chapter II is finally available to the masses, yet again showcasing the world of rollerblading what...

It’s no secret that I’ve been in something of a slump lately when it comes to writing articles for Be-Mag. I’m months overdue on a double article for Smiley about the (misguided) notion of Family in...
