You are one of the toughest critics of style in our industry, and for good reasons; what do you think led to the way that blading as a whole has changed from the FP days to how we know it today?
Skating changes, like anything else that progresses or is new. Skating has changed due to many things over the years… it’s hard to pinpoint, but in my head, as I’m thinking about it, the word ‘trends’ keeps comming to mind. Tricks that are in, fashions, prominent pros; all things that have changed in skating.
I guess if you’re trying to compare how the “FP Days” were compared to how skating is today, it’s the attitude that FP brought and the way we portrayed skating and the way we felt we should skate. Maybe it’s because FP was in the spotlight and our general delivery of skating was very raw, uncut, hard.
So to me I feel like I related these things to skating more-so then, than I do now. The more personality, and origionality you have as an individual, the more it’s going to rub off in your skating. It’s not that we don’t have that with pros nowadays, I just think with FP being at the forfront at the time, and with that being the first representation of rollerblading being portrayed like that, that maybe it felt different? But that wasn’t really the first, ’cause weren’t Brian Smith, Arlo and Brooke pulling knives, wearing halos, and baking cookies and all that?

Rollerblading simply wouldn’t be as cool as it is if Dominic Sagona had never picked up skates.
Frequently described as the most stylish rollerblader in the history of rollerblading, he never ceases to create addiction to his skating through his edits and pictures and as rollerbladers, we simply can’t get enough Sagona.
Much to our pleasure he continues to produce, and this year has been a strong year for him.
Despite serious injury he is still able to release an 8 page interview in the prestigious Be-mag, as well as an interview in The Conference Mag. 2, coming soon.
As if that wasn’t enough, the next few weeks will see more Sagona action on multiple media platforms.
His stylish skating is also reflected in his often inspiring, and often dark personality. His talent for skating is reflected in his pumping, deep and dark music productions, and his DJ skills are a truly an experience to behold.
His power over the public whether in skating or in music are almost unrivaled, and for this reason alone he is destined for greatness.
Here at Conference.org we catch up on Dom as he recovers from injury.

I’ve been skating the Sagona for 3 days now and im totally in love!
The first thing that comes to my mind is the liner, best liner ive skated since salomon times.
The top is a kind of neoprene wrap that due to its high tech velcro strap is super easy to put on. I guess I dont have to mention that its highly comfortable.
In my eyes the liner is perfect, to tighten it there is a ‘fast tightening strap’ which is way better than tightening a liner with laces.

ConferenceMag is proud to open it’s pages by presenting an interview with the new USD team and brand manager, Dominic Sagona.
Oli Benet: how old are you now
Dominic Sagona: I’m 25 in June, f*cking old man
Oli Benet: I was about to be surprised I thought you were at least 25 already, so are you still skating often?
Dominic Sagona: of course. But the older you get, the more selective you are. You go through spurts. Skating everyday isn’t the best method. A few days a week is perfect. Not too worn out, and not out of practice, but when you’ve been skating for 15 years like me it’s embedded
Oli Benet: that’s good. So you still love it then huh. [...]

Thanks Pinky.
