    Photographer Profile: Pietro Firrincieli

    Be-Mag·
    Everybody likes a good skating picture, but the person taking it usually remains unknown. With our 'Photographer Profiles' we decided to change that and shed some light on the people behind the camera. Pietro Firrincieli is a dedicated rollerblader from Italy who's been documenting his scene for years. Read on about his love for black and white, Blade Diary, getting hit by a truck and check out some of his favourite pictures along the way!

    Up and Comers: Jon Fromm

    Be-Mag·
    Most of you probably already know Jon Fromm, or at least think you do. He shows up at competitions all over, comes out to the local blade events and always seems to have a new edit on Vimeo, forcing you to rewind and ask yourself what just happened. But if I had to share something about Jon that most people wouldn't know it would be his work ethic. Skating is the perfect microcosm of his life. To the untrained eye when watching Jon warm up with hurricane topsouls first try and switchups that leave you amazed the first thing people think is "I wish it was that easy for me" or at least thats what I was guilty of. 

    Up and Comers: Jo Zenk

    The usual introductions start with the moment when you first met the guy to be interviewed. In this specific case I have to say, that I am not quite sure where I met Johannes the first time, but I am sure about the fact that as soon as I got to know him a little I hated him instantly. Never would I ever hang out with that guy. Life can teach you tough lessons and the one that I was taught when it comes to Johannes Zenk is, that you should never judge someone on first sight.

    Revolution "On The Spot" with Damien Wilson

    Be-Mag·
    Damien Wilson is an individual. Damien is in his own category, never one to fit any mold, he has always stood out from the rest. His skating is influential, his creativity flows when he skates. Off the blades, he's never afraid to speak his mind, Damien will tell you how it is. I've always admired that about him, what you see is exactly what you get. -James Johnson

    Revolution "On The Spot" with John Bolino

    Be-Mag·
    John Bolino is unreal, it makes you sick watching him skate. He's at the forefront of progression, showing us all what is possible on a set of blades. But, does he care to be in the limelight? No. That's what makes John stand out, he's humble, and he is loyal to the simple things in life. Having fun with his friends, and blading because he loves it. -James Johnson

    Up and Comers: Tyler Hester

    Be-Mag·
    At Be-Mag we love to see skaters that are progressive but influenced by an older generation of blader; Tyler Hester is one of those lucky few. Blessed with perfect weather in Southern California, legendary skate spots and a good mix of young and old shredders to roll with we're happy to present to you the exclusive Up and Comers edit filmed and chopped by Aarin Gates.
