Any Barrier Kult fans?

I like the first barrier picture. They definitely look skateable.

oh they are. there's skateboarders up there all the time. It was kinda cool cuz the rollerbladers all started it and then some skateboarders came up and did a whole bunch of work. kinda brought everyone together


minus the bikers, but who misses them anyways?

DEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRMMMMAAAAAAAAAANNNNNNNNNN
barriers are super fun, its the only place where having a think heavy board really works well, disasters all day

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.

Pyro, the coolest thing I've ever gotten on a barrier was a nollie big spin and a nose pick. Haha, I suck at barrier skating.

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?
