Sayer Danforth of Anew restored a pair of K2 250cc skates, from the 90’s and documented the process, ASMR style. Enjoy!

I call New Mexico home now after being away from the rockies for over 20 years. Since my arrival here this new territory is a consistent marvel. People don’t really perceive New Mexico as an “outdoor” state but i’m here to tell you it IS. The Rockies start here so the typography might not be as aggressive as Colorado peaks, but is beautiful in a different way, ANEW way.

Taking that as a catalyst for this adventure I wanted to seek out some skaters that have a diverse skill set to adventure around this enchanted state with me. They should Skate and rock climb for this idea to work. I reached out to long time friend Luke Bender to see if he was interested. Luke enthusiastically accepted the challenges and recommended Adam Bazydlo who then recommended Mick Casals.

A “solid group of producers” said Adam after the plan was set. This was not aimed to be a “party tour” mission as we all had a lot of work to do. After all there are only a few of us, and we needed to pull out a film from only a long weekend, then back to our daily lives. We had some spots mapped out for skating but the climbing spots were very up in the air as we did not know the area all that well. The guys were actively hunting their climbing app called “Mountain Project” to find the hidden treasures fit for our climbing shots. Hmm why don’t we have an app for skating spots… maybe it’s better we don’t. The Boys arrived at the ANEW compound in Taos NM (@casadenadataos) early the day before we set off eager and happy for the adventure to start. - Sayer Danforth.

ANEW traveled to the Netherlands for the 19th edition of the Winterclash in Eindhoven. A lot of great people came by the booth to check out and pick up one of our Skate Tote Packs. We got to see some skating and even do a little street rip in Amsterdam. Thanks for the memories.

The Heat website is online on Heatiscool.com! Don’t miss the goodies. Heat is Erik Bailey, Tory Treseder, Oli Short, Micah Yeager, Sayer Danforth, James St. Ours and Jeff Stockwell.

Revolution (James): Looking at the HEAT team, it seems like you are all really good friends, making you guys a close knit group. Who are the team riders? How do you feel about them representing HEAT?

Heat (Tory Treseder): I think everyone in the industry knows how I feel about the guys, I hold them high in any kind of interview, or any talking I do with anyone, they are Heat in my eyes. Jeff Stockwell, James St. Ours, Erik Bailey, Micah Yeager, Sayer Danforth, and Oli Short are the best bunch of guys, and I couldn’t see myself going into the year 2007 without them on board! They are truly my best friends, and incredibly hard workers as well!
