This was hands down the best St. Patty’s day I can remember. After watching Casey Mcfarland absolutely destroy street spots in down town Phoenix, I got a chance to talk to him about being the second team rider for Jin Joint. After about 15 minutes of telling him what it was all about, I handed him a fat stack of shirts. Casey was really pumped to hear that I liked his skating enough to have him represent the company. And with that, Casey had yet another sponsor to add to his list which includes USD and Revolution Skate Shop. Thanks again to James and Gretchen for letting me stay with you while I was in Arizona.

The first AIL event of the year went off in a big way. Tons of skaters showed up from all over the place, and everyone threw down.<(unintended pun but it works so I’m leaving it there) Congratulations to Brandon Wiese for finishing in sixth place in a field of almost 100 competitors. Jin Joint is proud to support any and all kinds of events that support rollerblading the way the AIL does.
