I learned to rollerskate when I was about 9, learned to ice skate when I was about 10 and first tried inline skates when I was 12. Skated heavily and passionately until I tore my ACL when I was 16 and hung up my skates for 20 years. Strapped the blades back on 2 years ago and started tapping into the scene once more. I noticed there were only a few podcasts out there around the world... and none t

I really can't bear to imagine that we are seriously considering demolishing this amazing, world class skatepark that was only built like 5 minutes ago.

The plans haven't been finalised with regard to Rosny Skatepark... but making a lot of noise early should make sure the plans don't end up swallowing it up or shrinking it.

Save the Rosny Skate Park

Not my strongest skating... but I'm happy enough with my little clips in this video of Joe's (at 2:40-43 and 3:03–22).

Would've liked some of my slightly higher, grabbed airs... but I like the little figure-eight carve of the bowl.

I love the 1 Minute Skatepark Guide concept.

"Can youse do a backflip on them things?"

The biblical Gospels tell of Jesus entering the temple courts and overturning the tables of money changers.

When you ask the robot to do a picture of "Jesus flipping over the tables", here's what you get, apparently.

Gnarly.

Congratulations you Aussie legend!

We’re proud to introduce our signature Balance 2 frame for Scott Crawford . Scott has been an incredible ambassador for blading since before grind plates were a thing. He’s been involved with some of the most legendary skate brands and has helped developed numerous products. An amazing resume for a skater still skating at such a high level.

Scott’s Balance 2 frame is a light grey color with black axles and a two color print. We’ve also produced a limited run of matching wheels in two models; 56mm 88a for skateparks and street, or 58mm 88a for bowls and vert. These wheels are available bundled with the frames or individually, but only 50 sets of each were made so supplies are limited.

We’ve also created a special bundle complete with Compass Swiss bearings and matching laces for the ultimate setup at a great price. Each bundle comes preassembled ready to roll, just bring your own boot. Bundles are available exclusively through our website and ship worldwide.

Orders start Saturday June 17th at 9am EST on our website and start shipping Monday. The bundles will start shipping at the end of the month when the packaging arrives.

Thank you for all the support over the years. It’s because of you that we’re able to do projects like this to recognize the amazing people in our community.

In the New York Times!

Aggressive skating emerged in the 1990s as a flashier, niche style of roller skating. Like other ’90s trends, it has emerged again.

some glorious new things from Adapt Brand

A brand new chapter. The Superveloce SC (Sem Croft pro model) has been in the making for over 4 years. From drawing new ideas on a blank piece of paper to talking with Sem Croft on how to use the Superleggera technology to create an aggressive skate. Together with Jelle Briggeman, we created a completely new UFS mold with the perfect dimensions for the most high end aggressive skate ever created. Every aspect of the skate has been designed to create the fastest and most responsive UFS boot on the market. Taking a big step with manufacturing processes and embracing new technology. Not only for its soulplate, but also the one piece H-block slider. This is our lovepoem towards an industry we grew up in. And we hope to keep pushing the envelope with future products.
From the bottom of our hearts, congratulations Sem!

P-rail session in the driveway with my teenage daughter.

She's working on jumping onto soul grinds, grabbing makios and doing a soul-to-mizou budget switchup.

I'm working on grabbed backslides, alley-oop souls and kind grinds.

Went to get a quick skate in and came across this hazard 101 left behind by Kingborough Council gardeners.

Gravel stones all over the park. It's literally a b***y trap.

Skim-watched Brink! for the first time last night. Just fast forwarded to the skating bits, which were solid.

The rest of it? I could feel myself getting dumber by the minute.
