Events

Well, Saturday October 2nd was the day of the 4th Chosen Few Street Comp this year, and it was a crazy one to say the least. I love throwing competitions in new areas and San Diego has been a legendary place to skate for so many years and I wanted to add to its reputation.

When it comes to organizing some of blading's major events such as the 'European Half Pipe Championships, the Grindhouse Spine Masters, Winterclash, BCSD, or the Real Street comps there is a lot that goes on behind the scene to attribute to the comps success. There are always devoted people behind each event who work their asses off in order to keep the sport alive and bring in support year after year. These unnoticed heroes do it without any personal gain. Sometimes they even invest their own money simply for the audience, the industry, and the love of the sport.

After a big skate event at the beginning of this year, Berlin is hosting the next big thing:...

Believe it or not, the Thomas I-Punkt Skateland just had its 20th anniversary! Oh, you never heard of the "I-Punkt Halle" in Hamburg? Well, besides hosting the annual German Inline Championships – the original X-Mas Jam – it's home to everyone rolling in North Germany and especially for people from Hamburg. And you bet, there's a need for indoor skateparks around here, since there is an average of 140 rainy days each year. This indoor skatepark has a story that is even older than Rollerblading as we know it.
