Connor O’Brien hasn’t been skating too much lately. He is currently spending every waking moment at AFI on his masters degree. Here is a short section of a lot of unseen footage I had of him lying around. – Quinn Feldmann.

I have spent 2 and a half years working on this on and off. I thought it was going to be my last standard definition video but because of serious injuries I had to mix it up a bit. I wanted to release it before the new year and start fresh for 2012.

The last 2 and a half years have been quite a ride. I didn’t start Chosen Few to make money. I started it because I wanted to contribute to the sport I love. I wanted to put on events and competitions that bring skaters everywhere together and allow new skaters to have a chance at being recognized.

I started it because I wanted my friends and I to have something to represent how we like to skate. I started it to acknowledge and give opportunities to the laundry list of talented bladers that exist in the world. I started Chosen Few to help skating reach out to the mainstream and get rollerblading the money it deserves.

I started ACHOSEN-FEW.COM to promote and expose the sport I have dedicated my life to. I do truly love it. If I were the only blader on the planet I could still go out everyday and hit a rail with a smile on my face. – Quinn Feldman.

Full day in the lives of Brandon Smith, Damien Wilson and Iain Mcleod. Also with skating from Nick Wood, Jon Julio, Chris Haffey, Winston Wardwell and more.

Anthony Gallegos has been skating for this profile since before we had even planned on making it a Chosen Few Profile.

Chosen Few filming has been going on for a little over a year but Anthony has been filming this for nearly 2 years. I can not even begin to describe how unbelievable and dedicated this guy is. He can skate anything. Literally anything. He will not only skate obstacles no one would ever think of skating, he will session them. He won’t just do a soul on it either he will get tech on it.

Among being a outrageously good skater he is also one of the most positive and humble people you will ever meet.

I have never been more honored and proud to release anything more then this profile. Anthony your the man! now sit back and prepare to be fucking amazed!

I have been hurt for the past year and a half. I started this section about 2 years ago but I dislocated my shoulder 6 months into filming. I was out 6 months rehabbing and then my first week back I dislocated it again.

It took doctors at the UCLA ER 3 hours to put my shoulder back in. I dislocated it again while traveling in Europe while waiting for some other stuff to kick in so I could get a bone graph surgery. I managed to sneak in a few sessions here and there and skate the all day for the 7 days before my major surgery.

I figured if they were going to fix it in a week anyway I might as well do some crazy shit before I’m out for another 5 months. I finally get to start skating worry free again in December. I did a lot of great things while I was hurt.

I got to organize events, expose new skaters and enjoy doing other stuff for the sport I love. I’m happy to be back and here is a teaser for my ACF profile. -Quinn

It was a hot Sunday session trick wise and weather. A bunch of skaters came out as usual for the our annual first Sunday session in the 90 degree heat of Montebello California.

First Sunday November will take place November 6th from Noon till 4pm at Highland Skate Park.
