What can I say about Michael Braud that most of you don’t already know. He has been in the game for well over a decade and Michael has proven without a doubt that he is one of the most insane skaters of our time.

When I made the decision to do a Filth-File on him, I already expected my heart-rate to skyrocket every time we went out to get a photo.

He definitely did not let me down. I have witnessed a lot of skating over the years but Michael has been one of the few that makes me want to turn my head away when he’s trying a stunt but it’s almost impossible to do when you want to see the progression of rollerblading in front of your eyes. - Erick Garcia.

I’ve been working on this with ESG for a long time. These are some of the best photos that have ever been taken of me, and they all have a great story attached to them. As I turn the page in my life, I will always look back on this time as one of the best in my life. BARS. - Michael Braud.

Michael Braud - Hashassins - Video on Youtube: PLAY

The Assassins were an order of Nizari Ismailis, particularly those of Persia and Syria that formed in the late 11th century. In time, the order began to pose a strong military threat to Sunni Seljuq authority within the Persian territories by capturing and inhabiting many mountain fortresses under the leadership of Hassan-i Sabbah. The name “Assassin” is often said to derive from the Arabic Hashishin or “users of hashish” (Wikipedia).
