The term "Rollschuhlaufen" is German and a minimization of Rollerblading, more oriented to the activity of recreational quad skating. If you're invited to go "Rollschuhlaufen", you know you're up to good times blading with the homies in a non-competitive manner. Not exactly dinky are the tricks Daniel Gourski, Eugen Enin, Jo Zenk and others attempted while filming for this video in Spain and Germany in 2010. The feel good vibe of "Rollschuhlaufen" is present throughout the whole thing though. Have a look!
Edit featuring Shane Yost, Cj Wellsmore, Alexander Rabinovich skating around Melbourne City on Seba GT90's. Directed, filmed and edited by Craig Smith.
They way Cj Wellsmore stepped into the limelight overnight two years ago and left his marks on blading ever since is amazing. Even more impressive is how long this kid flew under the international radar till he finally took off. This is a profile of Cj from 2005 that was filmed when he got back into blading after a break. A lot of this section was captured in the first week he put skates back on. A pair he didn't even own. Filmed by Dave Jacob of Ultimate Fury Productions.

These last years of portraying rollerblading has been a great gift of friends, adventures and learning. When you've been given such privileges as I had for this film, you want to give your very best. And I thank everyone involved for making this happen.
Great edit by Kai of footage that was filmed for an online project of his which he unfortunately wasn't able to finish because of his tight work schedule. Perfect edit to get juiced for the Saturday session!
