Montre Livingston is pure inspiration. Remember when you were young and had the time of your life just rolling down the street? Remember the excitement after doing your first handrail? Well, after many years on blades people tend to forget that feeling and what it’s really about, fun. Montre is one of the best examples of how much fun life and blading can be. While pushing the boundaries every single day, he is enjoying himself and makes sure everyone in his surrounding is doing the same. A few seconds after landing a next level trick or taking the hardest slam, he will walk back up the stairs smiling and laughing with everyone that might be around. He will be filming an insane clip without anyone being around to see, and half an hour later be teaching a kid how to do a new trick in the miniramp. All of this after a night partying with the locals until the sun came up.
Montre Livingston is what blading needs.
