Home News Blade Media News Cougar Skates recently announced the highly anticipated signature skate for their pro rider and reigning world champion, Julien Cudot. Since Julien joined their team two years ago, he has been on quite a hot streak, winning some of inline skating’s most prestigious contests and releasing a steady stream of solid video profiles. To kick off the release of his newest signature skate from Cougar, Julien traveled down under to Sydney, Australia, to link up with one of blading’s most respected videographers, Dom West.For us viewers, having two of the best at what they do, combining forces to create a memorable video, seems like a dream come true. But for them, the pressure to deliver the goods when it counts, with a small window of time to complete it, can be quite stressful. Here is what Dom and Julien had to say about the filming process.“I was already here 10years ago, it screwed up a bit, it often does. I knew I would be back and I hoped I would link with Dom at some point.This idea never left my brain. Finally, 10 years later with Cougar by my side, I am returning to skate this coveted land to present my pro model; with Dom West as the director. Yes it often screws up, its always a huge mental and physical battle to get a section done in a short time frame. What I didnt say is, we make it happen anyway, proudly.”- Julien Cudot“Working with Julien on this project was an absolute pleasure. His drive and professionalism are unmatched. Filming a project like this in just 10 days was never going to be easy…” Dom WestCOUGARSKATES.COM FOLLOW COUGAR SKATES ON INSTAGRAM HERESEE MORE JULIEN CUDOT CONTENT HEREBe sure to subscribe to our YouTube channel for more quality skate content.
