Good interview, as all ways I dont agree with Mr. Riggle all the way, but I definitly LOVED the FP slam. He has a good point, learn from it Demitrious…

“Nick Riggle was definitely one of the best at showing other sides of rolling. Very unpredictable and fun to watch.
The problem with kids nowadays is that they don’t LEARN how to skate, now kids are trying 450 topsouls and ao fishbrains before they even learn how to ao makio or switch soul. The problem with that is most of this new generation of skaters make skating look like shit “no style” because they never learn and master the basics. Oh well, new rollerbladers with no style is better than no new rollerbladers.”

yeah we limit our skating because most newbies can toe roll you see that shit in avian water commercials and frankly its sill shit yeah i respect the dude i loved him back in the day but compared to style masters like the kelsos cheshire fish and of course the super pros haffey and aragon this guys tricks were more fun than hard so respect the roots but dont get mad when the tree grows

definitely an OG pioneering rollerblading legend. Much respect. He should continue to lay down more of that creativity and show them young’ns how it’s done….

Love this profile.

Love Nick’s rolling.

The fact that rolling has become so limited that we need to refer to “mushroom blading” as being almost like a completely separate style is so sad.

Gotta miss the blank canvas days.

great interview no doubt… what else can be added but respect and the part about roller4life concept id have to say that it is or should be a part of life not the only thing you should be doing thats roller4life.

eg.

going to the corner shop? grab your skates and roll there.. you might find some spots on the way to skate for a short while on the way, or just getiing some where.. and then theres going on tour with friends getting some clips, skating on a tuesday night after work to chill with friends like we do, get out 2-3days a week, for a day on the weekend looking for some fun things to skate, catching up for 2-3hrs during the week after work/collage/University.. getting your girlfriend on skates and if you have a son or daughter get her rolling..

attend comps for fun and enjoy it…

if you choose to take it more seriously thats up to you…
