We are super hyped to have Eryk Pilch representing Blank out of Poland! His creative flow is infectious. Per Eryk: Last two weeks I spent in Israel. Since I was filming for other project, I had a little time for my own skating and in the end I got really sick and was out for five full days.

Still, I managed to get some clips here and there and it came together into a small video, that I named “Shalom”. “Shalom” means “good morning” and even though its not the only Hebrew word I know, it’s the phrase I use to greet a rollerblading community that doesn’t know me yet. So shalom and enjoy the show!

“I’d love to write a big spiel about these clips, because 2022 was a wild one ; but truth be told I don’t really know where to begin. A lot of big changes in my personal life; with a fair share of heart warming moments, balanced out by some stressful heart-wrenching ones”.

“This video is purely a collection of loose clips I’ve collected throughout 2022. Most of which were on the backside of an injury, or me just coming out of those post injury spooks”.

“My skating in 2022 felt very stop-starty… just when I would find a rhythm, I’d get injured; mostly because my mind was probably elsewhere. I put a lot of unnecessary pressure on myself to skate a certain way, or at a certain level, only to find that treating skating like that left me feeling nothing but down when I couldn’t perform to my own expectations; or frustrated I couldn’t perform for the fleeting moments an opportunity to actually get a clip would arise.

In a weird full circle, I ended the year with the same outlook on skating that I started with - there’s literally no pressure to be anything but myself. It’s fun. It’s creative. It’s pure freedom. I can do it any way I want to, and it’s exactly how I make it… a vision, that I sadly lost somewhere throughout 2022. Depressive mindset’s suck. Sometimes putting pressure on yourself is healthy, but sometimes, it really isn’t.

Here’s to having more fun skating, with less pressure in 2023”. - Rob Kellett.

What up world, your Friendly Neighborhood Rollerblader here with another awesome video! This is SOLO! SOLO is a skate video made by, me of me with me being the filmer and editor. This project took about 3 months or more to complete. I thought of making this project as I skate alone a lot more than skating with others. This isn’t because I like to skate alone but, because my skater friends and I have different schedules and hardly get to sesh with one another. I filmed with a GoPro Hero 7, a Nikon CoolPix B600, and a Insta360 (the first version) I did all the editing on my phone.

I had a ton of fun making this video and hope you all dig it. Big thanks to all that purchased the download last year. Cheers and happy shredding folks! This is not an instruction video. The stunts performed were done by a professional and should not be attempted unless under the supervision of a professional. Always wear your protective gear! - Montre Livingston.

Another year, another international adventure: with beautiful scenery, sunny skies, and often unbearably hot weather, Portugal set the perfect scene for our newest team project. Led in Lisbon by Martim & Rodrigo Braz-Teixeira, over the hills of Miraflores, welcomed in Sines by Ricardo Lino & family to explore Santo André, Santiago do Cacém and other hidden gems. Surrounded by the sounds of the local language, like a sweet bounce of sonorities all mixed up with the gibberish spoken among our international guests. Fed with cheap food from Lidl and amazing, tasty treats devoured at the terraces of cafés.

Because of course, it was always coffee time. Views of the intense blue of the sky, the deep blue of the Ocean, steep drop-ins onto sandy beaches, and quick dives in the water to refresh. Sights of lovely paintings, colorful walls everywhere, art and poetry infused into our daily routines. Visions of long hair and sweaty landings, stinky liners drying in the hot sun, lazy naps in the shade. Life on the streets.

Because of course, there was no better place for us to go. So, when it came down to the skating itself… You be the judge of how much insane stuff happened in just under two weeks of time, in the wonderful land of Purtugalya!
