At Athens Blade House, the air is still — a quiet tension building as bladers prepare, the calm before the storm. Wheels rest, but the anticipation is alive, humming beneath the surface.
Then the contest ignites. Wheels roar, tricks take flight, and the crowd pulses with energy. Every run is a moment, every cheer a wave of adrenaline. It’s a celebration of rollerblading’s rhythm, power, and community.
When the dust settles, the journey continues to Andros Island, where the Blue Enigma Hotel offers its own kind of magic. Blading the bowl feels effortless under the Greek sun, while the pump track high on the hill brings a rush with a view.
Away from the wheels, we hike through lush paths to cascading waterfalls, letting Greece’s natural beauty remind us to breathe, explore, and soak in every moment. It’s not just about rollerblading—it’s about the spaces it takes us, the memories it leaves behind.

Brad Oz Cinema proudly presents Justis Pope. “Justis skating is stylish, modern, and inspiration. His story is nothing short of just that. I meet Justis in 2006 in Mount Pleasant, MI. I was attending college, and he was in High School. Justis has always had an incredible trick selection paired with style and control - for a 16 year old skater, he could jaw drop anyone that had a sense of what skating is”.
“After college, I moved around the state and then to Portland, Oregon and back. During the pandemic, Justis and I linked back up to skate and film a few creative projects that the skate world seemed to enjoy. With this project, we knew we wanted to do something different. Something that transcends skating. That is an showcase of character as much as it is talent. This project opens with a poem, written by Justis. We take you on a journey to where it all started — a curb at his childhood trailer park.” - Brad Oz.

Copenhagen (Denmark), with its unique vibe, incredible skate spots, and iconic rails, provided the perfect location. Julien Cudot and Jonas Hansson managed to capture something truly special. We’re beyond proud of what they accomplished together. - Cougar Skates.
