The Blading Cup 2017 - Official Edit by Jeff Kolada.

I produced this year’s official edit for the 2017 Blading Cup in downtown Santa Ana, CA. Some of the best aggressive rollerbladers in the world were there to throw down and hang out. Really great event, thanks to Jon Julio, Jason Reyna and Miguel Ramos for putting on this awesome event, and all the bladers for putting up with me cutting them off all day! - Jeff Kolada.

Everyone should try and make it next year, I was really surprised by the diverse turn out. I normally expect a CA comp to have a majority of people skating in it to be from CA, but there were just as many international dudes in attendance. Now that I think about it, there were a lot of surprises with this one.

Bl8 Cup 2017 // Feet 4 Premiere (2017) - Report by Cody Sanders

Pro’s skated the comp (rare), there were a ton of booths set up showcasing all the latest and greatest (powerslide, RZRS, themgoods, dead, etc), the heats didn’t excessively run over the time limit… Wow. It was actually run really well. The after party was located right above the competition at a bar called Native Sons. If anyone from there reads this (they won’t) thanks for putting up with rollerblader shenanigans…

The Feet 4 premier happened next door to the competition at “The Frida” cinema. We packed this place out, hundreds of us cramming into this tiny theatre. Lonnie Gallegos showed up fashionably late with the video that was finished maybe 30 minutes prior to viewing, haha. Really great video, the place was full of cheers. The video will be available at Blackfabric.bigcartel.com.

I always make fun of California (because it’s the hub and i’m jealous), but they really put on a good time this weekend. It was welcoming, well organized and constantly exciting. You should go. I’m going to start going every year. Love y’all. - Cody Sanders.
