USD have just announced their latest addition to the Pro team. None other than Franky Morales will from now on rep the USD brand. Congrats to both Franky and USD for sealing this deal!

Just in time for spring Razors is releasing its latest sequel of the popular Genesys skates series. Just like the SL skate, the G9 LE White is made of a harder and longer lasting material which provides full support for a long period of time. It comes with GC’s proven Featherlite 2 frames, Razors liners with oversized padding, replaceable soul frames and backslide plates with pre-shaped groove which lines up perfectly with the groove of the frame. The G9 does not require any break-in time and is ready to use out of the box.  

The fine gentlemen at Mushroomblading.com have reworked their site and put out a couple heavy hitting podcasts/interviews to celebrate their relaunch.

Many skaters have came and gone throughout the short history of our sport. Many talented people who have impacted blading immensely have came and went within a few short years, no longer to be seen again. Only a handful have lasted the test of time and continue to progress skating to insane levels today. Our newest pro rider for Create Originals is one of the most iconic pro's that our industry has ever seen. Nobody has been skating as hard and as raw for as long as he has. He has an unmatchable track record throughout the years complete with legendary sections, interviews and contest placings. This guy's just one of the greatest and we couldn't be happier to have him down. Ladies and gents, please welcome Brian Shima to the CO pro team. -Billy O'Neill
