One: 15 minutes with Brooke Howard-Smith
Tuesday, May 13th, 2008
Perhaps better known for his enormous and engaging personality than his skills on wheels, Brooke Howard-Smith was not only one of the first skaters to make the long journey to California in the early ’90s, but he proved himself to be one of the most influential.
As a founding owner of Senate he experienced the rollerblading boom—if not from the driver’s seat, then at least with a foot on the gas—like few others, learning along the way the benefits of shock marketing, the pitfalls of corporate ownership, and how to skip town when the mood is right.
A consummate showman, Brooke’s appearances in early videos such as “The Hoax,” and “Hoax II” now serve as telling foreshadowing of the career he’s carved out for himself in his homeland of New Zealand where he hosts several television shows, and accessories his arm with the likeness of a former twice-crowned Miss New Zealand, now his fiance. ONE regular Mike Opalek went o NZ for a month to visit his old friend, and was kind enough to come back with this interview. […]

Jefferson Santana: The Conference Interview & Edit
Saturday, April 26th, 2008
Jefferson Santana is a name that has been kind of out there, but kind of not. Ever so often theres an amazing edit of his skating, or an awesome photo.
People kind of know who he is, and people kind of don’t. The fact is that he is one of the best skaters I have ever had the pleasure of skating with, but the law doesn’t allow him to enter any country without having a contract to justify a visa, but also wont let him work without a visa so that he can get a contract, marooning him in Spain, where he has been consistently placing top3 in every single contest he competes in, be it street, vert, park or whatever you throw at him. He is also the toughest and most mentally insane people you will ever meet.
Anyway, heres a bit more of Rosca for your reading pleasure.
Read the Jefferson Santana Interview.

Matthew Watkinson, a relatively unknown name in rollerblading, has recently found himself editing and filming for The Conference.

Interview with Dominic Sagona
Tuesday, April 22nd, 2008
ConferenceMag is proud to open it’s pages by presenting an interview with the new USD team and brand manager, Dominic Sagona.
Oli Benet: how old are you now
Dominic Sagona: I’m 25 in June, f*cking old man
Oli Benet: I was about to be surprised I thought you were at least 25 already, so are you still skating often?
Dominic Sagona: of course. But the older you get, the more selective you are. You go through spurts. Skating everyday isn’t the best method. A few days a week is perfect. Not too worn out, and not out of practice, but when you’ve been skating for 15 years like me it’s embedded
Oli Benet: that’s good. So you still love it then huh. […]
