I only knew Gilbert Gonzales for about 9 of the 10 days I was staying in Malaga with my best friend. Since the first time we met him, he instantly became family to us. We spent long days to skate and long nights to party with him.
Gilbert was one of the most dedicated people to this sport I’ve ever met, and he was just a happy guy. This is one of the main reasons I made this video the way it is: because I will always keep his positive attitude and the great memories we shared in mind. Rest in Peace brother! – Michael Witzemann.
Winterclash is definitely one of the most important weekend for every inline skater out there. As for me, it is most possibly the one date in the year I never want to miss out on.
Thanks to my good friend Bachir Benchagra, my friends and me could get to the Netherlands one week before the Winterclash took place to chill and skate. Since I couldn’t resist but bring my camera with me, this is the result of one week filming with bladers from all over the world! – Michael Witzemann.
