Some of you kids are idots, dissing rollerblading. Skating is super sick. How can a big assed bio 540 reverse japan off ten steps not be like skiing. Sure, some grinds may be easy...on a curb. Try them super fast or on big rails, or gap to grinds. Ignorance abounds from some of you. The first people doing 'new school' were almost all influenced by rollerblading, Iberg and his Minnesota crew like Shane Nelson, Jon Robinson, John Schmidt, the whole Wisconsin crew doing their thing at the same time. JP was analyzing rollerblading tricks at the first High North with us, we were watching switch rodeo sevens from Jon Bergeron, thinking how cool it would be on skis. Don't be all hyped on dissing rollerblading 'cause some of your friends talk trash. To each their own, be unique. Who the fuck cares what Transworld Skaetboarding says. Shiat, I'm over it.
