There is a OG Blader on the loose again and he is looking for spots haha. Mike French is worth looking into cause he has lived a interesting life to say the least and has some good sections from way back when. Mike and I took a trip to California for 6 days and while we were there Mike judged a little kids rollerblading contest and then drove 6 hours to NorCal so we could hang with a bunch of locals at Biz Grindsmas box comp.

We then drove 6 hours back the next day haha. Like I said the man is looking for spots and we just so happen to find some along the way haha. Mike maybe be old school and may have went away for a while in more ways than one but he is back with the classics and maybe even a couple different ones. Check it out and see for yourself. Enjoy! - Hawke Trackler.

“This event was awesome and I am happy I ended up filming it. Shout out to all the parents. I know you’re the cool parents at school haha. I was very impressed from all the different age groups. It was a beautiful sight to see as a rollerblader of over 20 years. Speaking of long time skating shouts to Matt Mickey who did the announcing for their competition. I have been to most rollerblading contests at this point and I was just as pumped to see the little kids blading like anyone else id watch normally. It was also awesome to watch Mike French and Migel teach kids some new stuff and ideas. It was wild how fast they learned. They really did a great job so be sure to pass along that message for me. Tell them I said you all shred! haha”.

“With that keep being good parents and letting your kids shine and do whatever it is they love. Be happy and support them. Be kind but stern. Be loving and protective but also let them live a great life that they deserve. Be patient and be there for them. I am never around children so it was honestly crazy to witness so many different levels of skater. I had a blast being able to watch and take part in the event. Thanks again for having me. The future is looking bright. Let’s keep blading alive shall we! Peace”. - Hawke Trackler.
