Any Barrier Kult fans?

Roc, I've never had any problem skating with rollerbladers, but for some reason, they all have a problem with skaters. It's super annoying.

I find skill level to be a major factor. Good rollerbladers generally don't have a problem with skateboarders, given they're not douches, and the same to be true for good skateboarders. I think it's once you reach a certain level you learn to respect anyone out doing what they do and that we both deal with the same shit (busts, capped spots, destroyed spots, etc). But that spot it was like, hella people would be there and skateboarders and rollerbladers would all be seshin' all be cheerin/clapping for each other and it was just a dope vibe.

skate has only enhanced my knowledge of skateboarding and thus, i can tell when dudes are rippin it and give credit where its due. knowledge is power. Hence why i like to post rollerblading videos here, despite the fact that none of you probably care.

anyways. enough thrread jacking.

I'm into rollerblading. I don't know what the tricks are called, but I know of most of the companies, I know a lot of skaters and I know how hard some tricks/spots are. So when I see something sick go down, I usually do that hit the board on the ground thing. But a lot of rollerbladers here are complete buttholes and hate everything about skateboarding.

On topic: post that barrier video when you finish it! Stoked to see that; I love skating barriers.


Off topic: my mom bought me a rollerblading magazine (ONE) for christmas, I guess she thought it was a skate mag? Anyways, I read the whole thing and it held my interest more than a TWS ever did. Maybe you can help me out, Roc: why does david sizemore wear a helmet?

[Roccityroller]

neever in ithaca but i heard its sick.

sizemore doesn't wear his helmet anymore. But if you skate like this, you're entitled.



I think he just grew up skating that way.

btw... i just found that video and watched it b/c of this thread, it was in my "queue of things to watch"

I think he just became my new favorite skater.

I didn't even know rollerblading was still around. I know it was HUGE back in the mid-to-late 90s, but after that it seems like it kinda fizzled out, at least in the mainstream.

that was sick...i dont skate(inline) much more because of my knees, or skateboard much because of the ankles...im just fucked up, too many years of gymnastics just killed the lower half of my body. but i have mad respect for anyone (even those pedal pushers) that does that stuff because i know a lot of it is not easy as it looks

I think the main rule should be:
If they don't get in your way, they're cool.

If anyone wants to make that sound funnier, or cooler. Be my guest.

It's really wet in San Diego right now, and trying to find shit to cover our faces is becoming a hassle.
