Nobody Cares: Frsh Welcomes Jeremy Soderburg!
When the contest first started I wondered if we would actually get any good submissions, if people even cared to be part of a new video project I was doing. It has been so long since I’ve done something I wondered if I was even relevant enough to expect people to take this whole thing seriously. In the beginning we had some early submissions, some good but not really great. It was really crazy though that basically everyone who submitted was so much more advanced than the guys I would have featured in my videos just a few short years ago.
Rollerbladers have come a long way. Skateboarding is the norm these days, we are engulfed in an industry that is so oversaturated with people who want to latch onto skateboarding culture so bad, that they will even try and act like they themselves are skateboarders when the truth is they could care less about it. I guess that’s where I can see we truly are different. We don’t have the need to make a deck, or have a skate team just so that we can get into skate accounts. If people like our stuff then great, and if they realize our background and history began in rollerblading and they want to shun us because of it, then so be it.
The first guy who really blew us away was Jeremy, at that point I only planned on having one winner, and for a few weeks we were sure it would be him. He is from LA, so obviously we’re a little biased to guys from So Cal, but his home had nothing to do with his abilities and style. I am excited to have him become part of our team, and am sure he is going to be a great addition to the “FRSH” family.
Thanks Satan.

May 8th, 2008 at 8:30 am
i have no idea what Joe is going on about in that second paragraph! What does skateboarding have to do with anything!?
congrats to Jeremy, that was a sick section.
May 8th, 2008 at 8:34 am
c’ets le seul qui ait vraiment retenu mon attention.
May 8th, 2008 at 9:15 am
His style is unique and his tricks are sick so congrats to him loved his stuff on the “quality” dvd by DL!
@satan; read it again and you’ll understand, it’s about companys only having a skatboard team to be part of the mainstream ;-)!
May 8th, 2008 at 9:24 am
O dear, bad choice.
Jeremy S can’t hang with Rachard on Franco, that’s a ridiculous thought!
Yet again, sponsorship comes down to a popularity contest.
Why didn’t Jake Dotson win? CLEARLY the sickest skater that entered. He is a lot better skater than Jerermy S. Tricks, style, everything.
May 8th, 2008 at 9:32 am
Ok just read the earlier message about there being 3 winners. Let’s hope Jake Dotson is in there or there have been some serious injustice!
Jeremy So-obsurd’s edit shouln’t have made top 3!
May 8th, 2008 at 9:45 am
yair should be on the team
May 8th, 2008 at 9:46 am

May 8th, 2008 at 11:35 am

May 8th, 2008 at 11:51 am
Im not great with names, but following this competition, Jeremy is the only guy that stuck out in my mind.
Good choice chaps
May 8th, 2008 at 12:51 pm
Matthias St. John ftw
May 8th, 2008 at 1:10 pm
hw is amazing and he is goodnuff to go on the team. he is solid can do every trick looks like a very likeable person ……you only hatting coz he is big time.
May 8th, 2008 at 1:13 pm
will willson may be good at skating but he certainly sounds like a big headed twat! when are people gonna learn rollerblading isnt just grinding handrails?
May 8th, 2008 at 1:32 pm
He cuts his hair … already in progress :D
May 8th, 2008 at 1:33 pm
Congrats Jeremy.
He was defiantly the one who stood out most in my mind too. He’s a great addition to the FRSH family.
Go kill it kid in their video. I can’t wait to see it.
Look at those shoes he has, crazy…….
May 8th, 2008 at 2:36 pm
congrats, Jeremy =)
stop hating kiddies)
May 8th, 2008 at 2:37 pm
I just threw up a little bit. I thought forced style went out a few years ago.
May 8th, 2008 at 2:40 pm
Congrats JEremy. We’ll have to go skate soon. Perhaps Belvedere, Beers on me.
May 8th, 2008 at 3:28 pm
Congratulations, Jeremy. Much deserved.
May 8th, 2008 at 3:31 pm
well done jeremy.
May 8th, 2008 at 3:34 pm
Will is one of my best friends and i dont see how his opinion on jeremy makes him a big head.
chimp = pussy
May 8th, 2008 at 3:50 pm
J’vous l avez dit : )
May 8th, 2008 at 5:02 pm
Fuck all of you haters. Grow up. This is good for rollerblading.
May 8th, 2008 at 5:21 pm
Jake Dotson won’t be on the team. They said they want to see personality and they want someone who is into street wear. Jake Dotson (while good) doesn’t fit Franco Shade. He should ride for razors.
May 8th, 2008 at 6:11 pm
CONGRATS!!!
good choice
i want his hair!!!! hahah
May 8th, 2008 at 7:46 pm
terrible choice.
May 8th, 2008 at 8:23 pm
they picked that dude, one of those guys that squats way to low on all of his tricks so they can try and look like colin kelso, man cant people just have their own style, instead of biting, yea i agree with what someone said earlier bye bye franco shade, im not supporting them anymore
May 8th, 2008 at 9:23 pm
hahaha “is this a joke” ur an idiot - jeromy soderburg is NOT trying to be a colin kelso lol. stopping ur support of one of rollings most successful companies because of that is retarded…
jeromy is sick and has good style, not a bad choice
May 8th, 2008 at 11:01 pm
‘they picked that dude, one of those guys that squats way to low on all of his tricks so they can try and look like colin kelso, man cant people just have their own style, instead of biting, yea i agree with what someone said earlier bye bye franco shade, im not supporting them anymore’
i do agree that he does try to put on style, not as bad as some people i know but still…
jake dotson should definatley be put on
still dont think im gonna be buying Frsh, will stick to non skating makes.
May 9th, 2008 at 12:04 am
Basic he is better than all of u, u hate coz u wish to be him as he is getting fresh stuff and u ate, u r all shit at skating get over it.
May 9th, 2008 at 12:59 am

GTFO —>
May 9th, 2008 at 2:34 am
alllllll over this choice baby!!!
such a sick style and amazing tricks!
its all about opinion it seems… i think he definately suits the whole franco style, cant wait for more shit!
but my opinion puts style over tricks… but obv others differ…
dotson is amazing, but image wise, not franco in my eyes… but defo pushing to get on razors am!
i think over extention on landing is pretty natural to be honest, and feels good, why not do things in rollerblading that feel sick! thats a fundamental reason why we do it! obv people can be seen to over do it, but i dont think this is evident in jeremys case.
good luck feller!
May 9th, 2008 at 3:33 am
they need to post all the videos in one post so everyone has a refresh of who sent something in and whos is better…… and then take a vote.. idk then again its not up to us…….
May 9th, 2008 at 3:51 am
Ha. Ya’ll some jealous bitches. I skate with him in most of the videos he’s been in and this kid never sits on anything, he has great unique style but still he’s the shit and deserves to be on the team. Satan already told you who’s gonna be on the team so stop bitchin. I tried to tell you guys before it was over but nope. you never thought he was real. Jeremy has so much style and fits the lifestyle so much that it’s the perfect business move as well as blader community move. I’m not tryin to start shit with anyone but damn, just be happy that he’s on the team and even more happy that they’re sponsorin riders.
May 9th, 2008 at 4:35 am
didnt he have dreads? is that him in the pic?
to satan; you should know what hes goin on about in the second paragraph
May 9th, 2008 at 5:22 am
Anyone notice how most of his clips were already in Teach Them Well.
Anyways sick edit and congrats.
May 9th, 2008 at 6:07 am
the reason why all my footage is from “teach them well” and “evol” is because right after that i had to film for radius, and now im filming for “SHOT FROM DARK” so i dont have any newer footage to just put on the internet but i advise everyone to get SHOT FROM DARK the video’s gonna be amazing. iv been there for alot of the filming and seen alot of shit for it, its rediculous and now we prepare for NOBODY CARES, thanks to everyone for the support….haters kill your self..

dalnas is straight tripin..
May 9th, 2008 at 5:50 pm
“such an awful choice - ugliest style and face! worst clothes - lanky kiln. god damn what has happened to franco shade.”
Worst Clothes? He Wears Franco Shade! So your saying that you hate Franco Shade right of the back? He Wears what they produce, and besides Jeremy has more style in his left pinky then we all do put together!
May 10th, 2008 at 11:46 am
