Gay watch the video at the top page to see real shit!
July 7th, 2012 at 9:52 am
It’s stupid how much controll Sean has, just look at the last trick!! And all the others for that matter… Just amazing, everything.
July 7th, 2012 at 10:45 am
Holy shit! He is so stylish!
July 7th, 2012 at 10:46 am
such small shit… ridiculous
July 7th, 2012 at 11:20 am
such ppl who doesn’t understand how hard can be some tricks..
Man if i ask u to go full speed and tap these small rails with ao fish or zero fish u will probably tell me “fuck u man” because there’s no chance u even imagine urself doing it..
Doing switch ups on handrails sounds 10x easier to me than going full speed zero fish on a 3 stairs hadnrails..
If u think switch ups (or spins?) are the only good things then u still need to go skate a bit more..
everything is about the control u have on ur skates.

July 7th, 2012 at 3:22 pm
tapping small shit is not aggressive skating, sorry. wear a dress and do some figure skating on ice. i’m tired of hearing about control and stylish, grow some balls and do some big tricks. no wonder we are no longer in Xgames. who the fuck would watch this.
July 7th, 2012 at 3:25 pm
thank god this is in the middle of Quinn and Josiah edits. this was a snoozefest. now I can watch some real skating with the edits before and after this turkey…two thumbs down.
July 7th, 2012 at 3:51 pm
I appreciate the control SK has, I just don’t dig the spots he skates. Doesn’t entertain me, no matter how difficult it is…
In my opinion it looks really forced and not about the enjoyment of skating itself but the perfection of some percieved style.
July 7th, 2012 at 4:28 pm
great section with a great song!
July 7th, 2012 at 4:38 pm
get the fuck out of here, the punks that hate on this don’t understand shit.
July 7th, 2012 at 5:26 pm
this edit blows, as usual. the guy has forced style and skates little obstacles. is there anything different than him and an 8 year old? an 8 year old skateboarder, I mean.
July 7th, 2012 at 5:59 pm
hahahaha stupid kids are stupid.
July 7th, 2012 at 6:20 pm
rollerblading has regressed to old guys skating little obstacles and trying to justify their lack of balls by claiming to have control and style. its unaggressive rollerblading. they should all wear dresses.
July 7th, 2012 at 7:09 pm
you guys… keep watching it and realize the difficulty in every trick.
you don’t think that ender is a hammer? PLEASE, that 3 crooked roll 3 is insane.
whole section is filled with next level stuff. so nice to watch
July 7th, 2012 at 7:54 pm
The first trick was rediculous… Everything was. And the spins and spin outs were too technical.
It was soo next level!
July 7th, 2012 at 8:22 pm
Why is it so hard for some rollerbladers to accept like and appeciate the great diversity Rollerblading has to offer!?
July 7th, 2012 at 8:50 pm
^^ Because “diverse” does not necessarily mean “good”. Hey, I’m all for skating new kinds of obstacles and deviating from the same old grinds and spins, but this type of skating is something else. Yes, it’s technical, but it seriously lacks amplitude. I can put pegs on a unicycle and try to grind a ledge and I bet that would be hard as fuck, but does that necessarily make it “better?”
It’s hard for rollers to accept a lot of this type of skating because it really detracts from the risk element that attracts most of us to the sport to begin with. A lot of these obstacles are just too damn small and any way you slice it, it’s not progression. If anything, the fact that you have to recur solely to the “technicality” factor to justify it means it’s actually regressive. This is just too goddamn nuanced, maybe to the point of being esoteric, and it really takes away from the visceral joy of putting your ass on the line doing something buck.
July 7th, 2012 at 10:44 pm
^^ You lost ALL credibility when you said that “technicality” = “regressive”. Any caveman can do a drop rail, which isn’t progressive. Skating abstract spots like SK, regardless of how juiced you get off it, is actually “progressive” You opinion is unqualified.
July 8th, 2012 at 12:17 am
I enjoyed that, nice profile. Last trick doesn’t look like much but I bet hardly anyone could do it, it would be really hard to copy.
July 8th, 2012 at 1:27 am
I just can’t watch the Kelso’s anymore…. their shit is so small, you can say it’s technical or controlled doesn’t change the fact that it’s really small skateboarder shit.
July 8th, 2012 at 1:30 am
Stick it Queen Feldman
July 8th, 2012 at 1:42 am
the beauty of rollerblading is that each person can have their own style. this guy is amazing.
Koubis (or whatever the dudes name is that is making a ton of money off of this website’s ads) needs to start moderating these comments. “Andy from Razors” comment is stupid and I wouldn’t want a little kid coming on here seeing that garbage. At the very least he needs to have a report option, or an upvote downvote system similar to reddit. I doubt it will happen, I bet he doesn’t skate or give a shit about this site.
July 8th, 2012 at 2:38 am
just shut the fuck up and stop berating every single edit on rollernews, you want to know why rollerblading cant progress. Its because some stupid kids with fucked opinions think that they are better then everyone else on and off the blades, thus justifying their fucked up comments. Seriously just shut the fuck up, you ruin this industry which is already fucked.
July 8th, 2012 at 2:55 am
holy shit that 360 to ledge was cray!!
July 8th, 2012 at 3:13 am
Ya i like to hold my grinds but it was sorta good to watch when it came out who cares its oldddddddd
July 8th, 2012 at 5:11 am
I agree its next level – next level down. You can’t justify pros skating skateboard obstacles. This guy just got his ass kicked by Quinn Feldman.
July 8th, 2012 at 5:18 am
that was some weak shit. this guy needs to step up his game or retire from making edits. start by growing a pair of balls.
July 8th, 2012 at 5:41 am
wow…..one of the best ever in the game
July 8th, 2012 at 6:40 am
suck a dick, people
July 8th, 2012 at 7:05 am
pure control…some of his tricks are unreal!
July 8th, 2012 at 7:07 am
if you hate on that you don’t even get the tricks he actually did! balls…he did big stunts years ago so he has nothing to proof stunt wise…btw haters last trick needs balls like what, did you ever try something like that?
July 8th, 2012 at 8:30 am
he would be even better if he removes his dick from your mouth.
July 8th, 2012 at 9:17 am
yeh.. some of that was pretty crazy technical and very controlled.
but i know he can do better lol.
i dont wanna see a true fish on the last section of the ledge… anyone can do that.
July 8th, 2012 at 9:37 am
I have never been a huge fan of this stle of skating, but that doesn’t mean it’s easy or boring.
July 8th, 2012 at 10:01 am
Not normally a massive fan of Sean’s skating in terms of spot choice etc. , but I respect the fuck out of his control levels.
That last trick is border-line impossible in my eyes. To judge your rotation to that level of perfection and still spin out, effortlessly, takes phenomenal amounts of control.
July 8th, 2012 at 10:15 am
Used to be so good
He really just follows broskow
It was ok
July 8th, 2012 at 11:05 am
half you guys couldn’t do half that stuff on obstacles half that size, fuck up you bunch off moaning little groms and go skate for fuck sake.
July 8th, 2012 at 12:37 pm
^he speaks the truth
July 8th, 2012 at 12:51 pm
just compare it with Qinn’s Section….and you will know :)
July 8th, 2012 at 1:44 pm
^^^ true, but lets see some new Quin Feldman footy ! not 4 year OLD clips mixed in! dad dude has a bigger beer belly than me! i wonder if he could still spin like that! ;)
July 8th, 2012 at 2:10 pm
Any caveman can duplicate Quinn’s edit. It takes skills to blade like SK. It’s always the pussys who complain that an edit isn’t scary enough for them haha groms,
July 8th, 2012 at 2:23 pm
Bladers talking shit on Sean Kelso is the equivalent of skateboarders talking shit on Rodney Mullen, pure blasphemy. You all think you’re being cool and hardcore but in actuality you’re just showing your stupidity and lack of what makes blading unique. Don’t be foolish and assume bladers “invented” going big.
July 8th, 2012 at 3:32 pm
Kelso is the equivalent of a Pro Football player playing flag football. You can talk all you want about his style and control – but it’s Flag Football. Grow a pair and play real football.
July 8th, 2012 at 3:37 pm
^^^@David any pussy can skate like Kelso. Let’s see Kelso duplicate Quinn’ edit. Don’t hold your breadth – Kelso lacks the balls to skate Quinn’s obstacles. Quinn’s skating takes skill AND balls. Kelso’s skating takes rollerblades – or a skateboard.
July 8th, 2012 at 3:53 pm
small skating is just above Disco rollerblading but not by much. Disco bladers have style and control and wear pink spandex to make their tiny package look bigger. but we all laugh at them cause they look gay.
July 8th, 2012 at 3:59 pm
Fuckin boss. Control, style, precision and finesse. All accomplished over years of dedicated skating.
July 8th, 2012 at 4:59 pm
He is obviously still a good rollerblader just not at the peak of his powers anymore. If anyone believes that anything in this section is as hard as switch hurricane topacid on a handrail they are lying to themselves
July 8th, 2012 at 6:06 pm
Can’t really “get your ass kicked” by Quinn Feldman when comparing a video shot 2 years ago to something just released. Most of you kids would lose an argument with a 4th grader if your life was on the line. Idiots.
July 8th, 2012 at 7:29 pm
Great point adam
Quinn’s stuff is better then Sean’s and it was two years ago
But hey dude the section of Sean is also so old so invalid point
July 8th, 2012 at 8:00 pm
More anonymous vaginas talking shit again I see… Little bitches need a slap.
July 8th, 2012 at 9:04 pm
yea this edit is a couple of years old. kelso is even worse today. scary thought. Quinn ftw. agree with all the points made about growing some balls. but that will never happen. once fear takes over in rollerblading, you go small.
July 8th, 2012 at 9:04 pm
I can see there’s a great deal of skill and technicality in this kind of skating but I just don’t find myself getting a kick out of watching edits like this, in fact I could say the same thing about the majority of edits I see these days.
To me, rollerblading has turned into *too* much of an artform where it’s all about skating smaller and more unique skate spots (while wearing virtually skin tight clothes, why is it so many rollerbladers feel the need to wear those anyway?) compared to the old days where it was more about switching up on the biggest rail / ledge you could find.
Sure, there’s tonnes of skill going into skating like this, and even *thinking* of doing these kind of tricks would be hard work, let alone actually doing them.
But do I get the same enjoyment out of watching this kind of skating compared to the edits I was watching 6 years ago? Nope.
Sorry to sound samey or bitter but that’s just my opinion :P
July 8th, 2012 at 9:06 pm
lol @ Marco from Columbia. Kelso=Disco rollerblading. Put the pink leotards on him. bahahah.
July 8th, 2012 at 9:13 pm
Rollerblading is going smaller while all other extreme sports are going bigger. maybe helps explain why there are fewer and fewer rollerbladers every year, and more and more scooters, bikes and boards.
kids have a choice between blades, boards, bikes and scooters. they see our pros tapping curbs and little rails dressed like faggots, while board and bike pros are doing mega-ramp and scooter kids are doing double back flips at the skate park. blades lose.
July 8th, 2012 at 9:15 pm
+1 for Tom Brady comment
July 8th, 2012 at 9:23 pm
I realise Kelso had his wonderful time and proved not once with his hammers but people WAKE UP we are discussing these two edits that were posted here :) not what type of people are they.. even what they wear, or what personalities they are…just referring to the sections NO MATTER if it is 89 or 98 or 2050…
July 8th, 2012 at 10:36 pm
Looks to me like quinn feldman has more fans
July 8th, 2012 at 11:34 pm
J
looks to me that only a few people realize that skating, filming, editing in CHARG!NG – whole package, man, totally whole package.. SK opens new dimensions in blading with hi section – that’s what is ACTUAL right now in blading.
To all the lil kids hatin:
No one gives a shit if you can’t really see the new tricks and trends being invented right here and right now by the guys from VX team and other top pros. You will jump on the skate-small-obstacles (actually lace-undone-before-trick) bandwagon after same tricks get repeated 5 months later by all your favorite riders in their sections. Learn and evolve, otherwise you will get stuck in the 90s with your retarded sidewalks and shit. People like SK prefer to look forward and predict new shit first in line, but this is intellectual process, so I have a doubt that morons from RN gonna understand this ART. Fucktards.
July 9th, 2012 at 12:43 am
onimat, it appears to me SK is looking backward and trying to re-create his p-rail days when he was a young gun. Rollerblading isn’t about ART, its about BALLS. Quinn’s got em, maybe SK should watch his edit to see where rollerblading is really heading.
July 9th, 2012 at 12:48 am
looks like Quinn Feldman just shit all over this Kelso edit. great lesson for Rollernews kids – go big like Quinn and get applause, or go small like Kelso and get laughed at.
July 9th, 2012 at 1:53 am
I know Kelso wasn’t lacing big hammers here, but most of that shit was tech as fuck and Quinn Feldman (who is good too btw) would have a hard time re-producing it. Kelso could lace hammers if he wanted to but he did that back in 2002. Havnt liked all the Kelsos stuff but this is really watchable. kudos from a man who knows how he likes his blade!
July 9th, 2012 at 4:33 am
Kelso couldn’t lace hammers like Quinn if he wanted to. Like you said, that was 12 years ago. He’s like Dre Powell now, hanging on to sponsorships based on past achievement, but no longer relevant.
Meanwhile, CJ is AM.
July 9th, 2012 at 8:44 am
im sure sean and quinn, despite their differences,can both appreciate each others abilities when it comes to blading, why cant you?
July 9th, 2012 at 12:37 pm
Let’s face it people: Most of these pros have done all that spin to win bollocks on hard obstacles a million times since they were like 8. Blading’s moving in a more defined direction, we’re skating obstacles that are fun and look amazing on film. If you think people want to see a million different tricks on a handrail when we’ve seen it all before then you’re wrong and you will be left behind.
July 9th, 2012 at 2:59 pm
Blading got kicked off the X Games in the height of spin to win, rail to rail hammers. When will you retards realize how big we go has NOTHING to do with being in the X Games.
July 9th, 2012 at 3:33 pm
The hardest and scariest stuff is not always the best to watch, the key is to make it all look gnar like Gumby.
July 9th, 2012 at 5:38 pm
small obstacles = death of rollerblading
July 9th, 2012 at 5:39 pm
The jewboy never made anything like this though: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AlffBGCzMfY
July 9th, 2012 at 6:25 pm
WE OUT HERE!!!!!!!!! BLADERGANG 2012, WE TAKIN OVER DIS SHIT NIGGAZZZZZZ
July 9th, 2012 at 8:04 pm
so funny watching how much better Quinn is vs. Kelso. lol. The Kelso supporters have no case other than to say he has control…bahahaha.
July 9th, 2012 at 10:11 pm
BLADER GANG WORLD WIDE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
July 11th, 2012 at 2:46 pm
Bladers need to respect themselves first and maybe you’ll get the respect that you beg for from boarders, bmxers, and the general public. They don’t care how many times you spin, or how long you hold your grinds for, they only see the confidence and style in our sport. THAT, is what stands out. The real reason blading got dropped in 2004 from the X Games is because blading then lacked of maturity and style back in the days. YES thats right, sloppy, hucking, no grab, bad looking crap is what made blading a joke to the other mature refined sports back then, NOT “how big” we go. Street skateboarding contest are HUGELY popular but yet we all complain “how small” they go, doesn’t seem to matter for their sales though. What they have is marketing and STYLE.
