ConferenceTV - Billy O’Neill, one day in Barcelona
(A MattyWatky Production).

Matty Watky sent me a link to the full video he published of Billy O’neil hit by a car. The first video was posted on February 14th.

On the Conference Sleepless Tour. Via Conference.
Thanks Elrollio (dedicated forum’s topic).

Update:
Thanks Oli Benet for the mail.

To clear up the Billy situation.

I was checking around and people seem pissed about how we put this clip online.

Basically if you think about it, we wouldnt publish it if it was serious, if you were here with us it would all make more sense.

We have it all on film, all the ensuing action too. Billy is OK.

He has 2 twisted ankles, so he cant walk, but he is fine. We were all laughing about it, he wanted to put that clip online, we spent all evening with the police and the hospital, everyone looked after him, we are a great supportive crew here at my house and to be honest we were all sitting around watching it and talking about how lucky he was.

He is in great humour and we werent using it as an advertisement, or promoting a DVD, we just wanted to share what happened with everyone, because it was a miracle escape.

Im really sorry people are offended by it, i understand it though as we ourselves still see it and cringe, and at that moment we all wanted to die…

Billy is sitting here by my side watching “Jay and Silent Bob strike back” and is laughing away.

Oli.

Billy O’Neil UFS Throne :

Here is a post from the Billy O’Neil myspace blog, from the 20th of June 2006, it was however never discussed. Thanks to H. Salmela.

quoting Billy O’Neil :

My pro skate.

Ok, ive been getting alot of questions about when my pro skate is coming out and as opposed to answering one at a time which would take mad long, i figured id be lazy and type it once in a blog…ummm ok.

My pro USD skate is due to come out around januar 07.

It’s going to be a ufs throne, with mindgames wheels, kizer frames and new jug liners…

The liners are gonna fit the new cut that are being made to the usd cuffs….these news cuffs will be introduced with the release of USD Dominic Sagona’s pro skate … and also on my model ….

The new cuff allows you to have more flexibility, and the jug liner that comes with the cuff will compliment its new shape…basically, my skates gonna be hot…as far as colors and shit like that, im still in the process of experimenting and figuring out what would be best…i was thinkin of maybe going with a traditional black boot, just b/c black is always tight…but this will be better than your average skate…so please buy it. thanks.

Trickkkks

Ok kiddies….its time for you all to know what good skating is….i often get messages on myspace about kids who are like, yo check out my friend, hes really good, he can do 450 blah blah or 720 blah blah…and so all you guys know, this means nothing to me…just because your friend can do that doesnt mean he is a good skater….

It means he accomplished a trick..nothing more…. when i think of great skating, i think of dustin latimer, brian shima, louie zamora, my illumanati’s and so on and so on….and it has nothing to do with the tricks they do…its the skating…u know, the actual ROLLERBLADING….

I dont care if u do 900 truespin fish…if u dont skate up to it right, then I DONT CAREEEEE…. i dont care….i’d rather see a louie zamora b/s royale or a dominic sagona topsoul….come on guys, lets grow….skate fasttt… everytime… be risky…. fuck this safe, slow skating, 450 royale over-using, corny ass blading…. lets make this shit tough….o yea, and another thing…at this point we’ve skated more handrails than bikers and skateborders combined times 10…rails arent hard….there is sooooooooo much more to skating than spinning on a fuckin pole… that shit is old news boys…we have so much potential as a sport and as an industry…we need to grow and progress properly…. who the fuck is with me ?
