  7. um...... Says:

    From the golden age before the invasion of the emo faggots. This brings back memories of when skating was real. These days skating is, well in amerika, who can spin the most or who can land the biggest shit. What happened to style? About the time the tight pant emo look came in we lost all creditability. Now sloppy arm waving spin to win crap = pro skate. This video proves that we have gone in the wrong direction.

    “unknown” at 6:20 is Jeremy Pennacchini.

    oh my! Julio at 2:05!

    Yes because everyone in rollerblading who wears tight pants is now an emo faggot . If we would have stayed in this “golden age” we’d all be straight and pulling mad women. This is a classic video but it only is the tip of progression for someone like Sagona. But he’s too much of a hipster now that franco shade is the hot shit in Urban Outfitters right? People need to quit bitching about the “golden age” and just appreciate the level of skating at that time and how it has influenced now. I’m sure that Jon Elliot could be blamed for all the emo faggs rolling around doing toe rolls. The industry was even worse off when this video came out. It was far from a golden age. This was around the time everyone’s friends quit, and the people who care about rollerblading stuck with it. And what happened to Troy White? or Santiago?

  10. um...... Says:

    “And what happened to Troy White? or Santiago?”

    they got real jobs that pay them enough money to live on…… no pro can say that today.

  11. carlos Says:

    what happened to tj webber? and abdiel? champion? i can’t imagine any of them not skating today, even if they are not pro, i just want to see them skate

  12. um...... Says:

    champ went down on some serious charges and served about five years.

  13. aldolega Says:

    YES. BEST VIDEO.

  14. Bocca Says:

    Anyone got some more info on Champion. Did he really get locked up for 5 years?

    Him and Randy Spizer where my favorite skaters, back in the day. I Remember Randy’s Crayola packaging for his Senate wheels. At least I think they where for him.

  15. Jo Says:

    and so it all begins…

  16. king Says:

    i dont know whats more bootylicious, sagonas part or the credits

    thats all that needs to be said; this is how skating should be

    i can’t agree more… and… nice to know, what happens here (in Brazil) happens i other places at same time, or something like this… like, friends quitting cause they have a job, and ways for another directions…

  19. bballog Says:

    who has a pro skate that is an arm waving spinner? Last time I checked Broskow does some stylish spins to get his wins.

    The top pros in rollerblading are deserving of their skates, and each represent completely different styles. (bailey, shima, sagona, stockwell, farmer, minton, haffey, kelso) Rollerblading is the way it should be. Diversified. Videos like this helped pave that progression. I miss Daily Bread.

  20. Tom Endo Says:

    To be honest, I think this video came out at kind of a boring point in rollerblading. Videos were basically dominated by the esco zoo and fp scenes which kind of felt like they were in auto pilot at the time. 1998-1999 was not the greatest year for rollerblading. (I think that’s around when this came out. Someone correct me if I’m wrong.) Don’t get me wrong Volume and Coup de Tat are still classics of the time and hold up really well, but rollerblading was kind of stale from a video perspective until Brain Fear Gone bitch smacked it back into shape.

    Shawn Robertson’s first trick in the opener is pretty epic and Santiago and Sagona were both way ahead of their time.

  21. kj Says:

    what happened to Charles Dunkle?!

  22. kj Says:

    wots the first song btw anyone?

  23. Groopy LoVe O.G Says:

    bailey disa sweety haha i didnt know him at that time
    santiago had a todays style, amazing

  24. Harry Maynard Says:

    Brandon Ballog owned you both.
    I’m pretty sure I’ve seen some recent clips of Santiago skating a play rail on Youtube. Haha.
    And as for Troy White, I have no idea.

  25. rollerblading is gay Says:

    i dont mind the tight pants thing. i dont give a fuck about it. but i hate that kids jerk themselves off cause they did a trick while doing the high y (arms all spread out n shit) or waved their arms around like crazy and still think its good style. it isnt.

    champion got locked up but got out early. man that was a while ago.

    and troy white was a fucking beast. what happened to him?

  26. Wrekshop Ryan Says:

    Daily Bread = best ever

  27. um...... Says:

    BEST VIDEO EVER !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  40. gayswaggers Says:

    IMO this wasnt the golden era! this was like the real roots or foundation of rollerblading where everyone had good style and tricks where hard but none of that spin to win crap (before this era was the 90′s and nobody gives a flying fuck about the 90′s)..golden era was 2003-2006 when east coast still was dope and mindgame videos/vg videos where still alive. europe had clip films etc.

    nowdays everything sucks donkeys balls..

    rip daily bread
    rip mindgame
    rip videogroove
    rip ignition shop
    rip franco shade
    rip that apple faggot
    rip deshi

  44. jo Says:

    whats the name of the first song in this video?

  45. Ninjabeat Says:

    Beau made great videos during those years, but I think Joe Navran’s masterpiece was the one who started the evolution of blading. Amateur FTW

  46. felix Says:

    I started in 1993 and I really like those old videos! But I want to say that today the level is very high and there are skaters with amazing style too, or would anybody say CJ W., Soicho K., Richie E. …only to name a view have no style? You must be blind.
    mhhh…I quit at some point too, the reason was my body. I started again…job and family doesn’t mean you have to quit, you can’t go out every day that’s true but you can still have fun!

  48. Eddie_bx LBC Says:

    damn, this is what i grew up watching. I would give anything to go back to that time. everything was more simple on a universal level for “me”. I would watch these vids after school and go skate around town all afternoon with the homies and have fun. no worries in the world, just skating and girls lol. cant believe this is almost 14 years old lol.

  49. chris Says:
