L’industrie du patin à roulettes a toujours appartenu à sa communauté et à ses pratiquants. Même lorsque de grosses corporations tentaient encore d’en profiter financièrement, les patineurs « agressifs » ont toujours pris en main leur propre destinée. Il existe d’innombrables exemples dans notre histoire de marques établies par des skaters, et même si l’étiquette « skater-owned » est parfois utilisée à tort et à travers, il n’y a pas de doute qu’avec des compagnies comme NIMH, les patineurs sont plus que jamais aux commandes de leur industrie. La marque française Arcena pourrait être un autre exemple de tout cela.
The rollerblading industry has always belonged to the community and its members. Even when corporate brands were still trying to make a quick buck off of rollerblading, fellow aggressive skaters were always ones to take care of their own destiny. There are countless examples in our history of brands founded by skaters, and even if the « skater-owned » tag is sometimes misused, there’s no doubt that with companies like NIMH, skaters are in control of their own industry more than ever. The French clothing brand Arcena could be another prime example of all this.
