Jin Joint is a proud sponsor of the l.a. all day events. These events are organized by rollerbladers for rollerbladers. If you live anywhere near where this competition is being held then be sure to go because 2 weeks ago Tracy White who is one of the organizers of the event flew all the way to Superhick from California just to support rollerblading. He even won the old man comp, so forget about the price of gas for one weekend and go to this event!
Jin Joint is putting up another 100 dollars for the best line, so some solid skating might hook you up with a free weekend.
The 2008 Superhick was one of the most exciting contests I’ve been to in a while. There are so many different events that lead up to the pro/am final, that by the time the finals do come around, you feel like you’ve already gotten your money’s worth. There were a ton of solid lines put together throughout the competition, but in the in end, the $100 award had to go to Andrew Jacuzzi. Skatepile deserves a lot of credit for organizing such a great event for so many consecutive years.
Brandon Wiese clips from Superhick are coming soon,as well as other edits, so be sure to check back regularly.
This past Saturday, the AIL tour made a stop at Rye Airfield in Rye New Hampshire. I was happy to be able to make the trip out to the competition and be able to hook up the winners of the younger divisions with some fresh shirts. These kids really are the future of rollerblading and it’s important to keep them juiced about skating. Thanks again to Richie Velasquez for putting on such good events.
