You’ve been waiting for this project now for two years, and I know you can’t believe it, but yes, it is finally done and coming out. This video has been delayed by injuries and riders having to film profiles for other videos.

We finally managed to get everyone in gear and on the same path to reach the goal of making what will be known as an Epic production. Chris Haffey, Alex Broskow, Pat Lennen and Brian Shima put their hearts and souls into filming for this project and trying to put together the sections of their careers.

Together myself and Pat Lennen sat down for 2 1/2 weeks in my living room spending hours on end working nightly till 5-6 am to get this video pumped out in time for the Christmas holidays.

We had a great time working on this project and together with the 4x4 team the video also features several riders from other Rat Tail Distribution companies such as Abdiel Colberg, Jeff Stockwell, Nick Wood, Connor O’Brien, Damien Wilson, Sean Santamaria, Henry Hubbard, Fabrice Guillion, Chris Cheshire, Pancho Barrera and many more…

This video is a tribute to our sport. To show what you can achieve when you really love something. - Jan Welch.

Quoting Doug Urquhart:

I have been shooting for Black Market II : Barely Dead for a little over a month so far. This new flick is a documentary about the history of skating. Featuring interviews with Arlo Eisenberg, Mike Opalek, Jess Dyrenforth, Jon Elliott, Brian Shima, Chris Haffey, Shane Coburn + more!

All the skating content is shot on super 16mm motion picture film. Below are a few still frames from my recent California trip. These are freeze frames from the film transfer to HDCAM 1920×1080 10-bit uncompressed files… I have cut the file size to 50% of those dimensions so that they will be visable on your monitors.

Just remember… still frames don’t do much justice for how smooth & organic the film looks in motion! Also, all these shots were filmed at 48fps… so they are all true slow-motion… - Doug Urquhart.

Get ready for a full-blown trailer being released during Super Hick 2006 (first weekend of May).

Nimh is a high end boot hand designed by Brian Shima, and manufactured with precision and detail. This skate is made to perform at a professional level.

Free Groove System

The Nimh soul plate is designed to adapt to your personal skating style. Most skate companies lock you into a pre-set groove. Nimh does not. We advise skating a mildly waxed ledge for 1-3 hours to create your own custom groove.

Unconstrained Toe System

All Nimh skates come with a standard boot skeleton minus the excess of toe material found in most other brands. This allows for more breathing room and eliminates toe pain while skating.

Nimh is 100% skater owned and operated. This company was created by skaters for skaters and will be run accordingly. It’s time you choose your side! - Brian Shima & Jon Elliott.
