Powerblading Setup by Oli Benet

Quoting Oli Benet:

I have been thinking about this setup for so long. I have had a pair of black Xsjados stored under my bed, unopened, just waiting for weeks for the Kizer Advance frames to arrive.

When I finally opened the box I found that they weren’t as black as I thought, but I think the setup still looks pretty sleek.

Kizer Advance and Arrow are out now, with 2 weeks or so to go until the Powerblading wheels from UC come out. Now if only I could get good at Fishbrains.

Semi offtopic Note: to the guitarist / singer who sent us a mail. Can you recontact us? Thanks :)

Quoting Oli Benet:

We worked on these between a few of us that really wanted a different kind of liner, not an old school high top one or a new school logo covered one.

Something sleek and simple that would hold your foot well and would act as a second skin inside your skate.

• USD Phoenix Atop Liners: Press Release & More Photos.

The VII was originally created as a price-point skate, but after it was drastically improved both in comfort, hardwear and looks skaters on the team began to take an interest.

This skate can battle any skate on the market. The USD Diamond liners are high quality and exceedingly comfortable, and the cuff and boot combination is a perfect balance between support and flexibility.

The new soulplate is a variation of the enormously popular Carbon soulplate with a brand new wide-groove.

The skate really can be considered one of the most comfortable and accomodating skates on the market with a full lightweight soulplate to compliment the boot as well as a lowered heel for better anti-shock and the brand new Kizer Type-M II frame available for the first time.

Ideal for beginners, due to its great price, but also great for experts thanks to its hi-spec features. Weight of 1 skate in size 42 = 1,90 kg.

Bonus: Oli Benet, Raw clips on the new USD VII Grey

Starring Oli Benet, Kevin Chow & Greg Mirzoyan.

Oli Benet: DJ Mixes

I am 28, and have been rollerblading for around 20 years now. I can’t stop, allthough sometimes my body asks me to.

I Dj in Spain and around Europe, mostly drum and bass and dubstep.

I’m learning to shoot photos, and also getting into acting, with a few jobs under my belt so far. I work for a group of inline companies under The Conference.

Dominic Sagona (Ble3k): Drum and Bass & Mixes

What’s it like to play in front of a big crowd at a club, feel the peoples energy and see how they react to what you are doing?

It’s really unlike anything else that I do or have done before. I think to just zen out and be yourself, to just do what you do, to do it properly in front of people who are reacting in such an enthusiastic and positive way is one of the greatest feelings. [...]

Is this feeling in any way comparable to skating in front of a crowd or to just skating in general? With the adrenalin rush you get when lacing a difficult trick or during the summit of a good session maybe?

Yes, this feeling is almost the same, I think. To get an instant response from other people to what you are doing at that exact moment. I think many of the big contest skaters probably know this feeling more than most of us, and some of them feed off of it, as do DJ’s feed off the crowd.

But for me I do not like skating in front of anyone anymore, only a small group of friends who are a part of the session. I get anxiety before I play at a gig, but it’s usually gone by the time I start to catch a groove. [...]

Thanks Manly Jamison, Oli Benet & Monday.

Oli Benet was featured on Devotion Barcelona (Direct link).

Devotion BCN is a channel that is aiming to support the underground scene in Barcelona including music and sports, and educate the new generation about people that live in the city and industries outside the commercial and mainstream.

This video is aimed for non-rollerbladers in Barcelona and Spain, and thanks to it being also online it can also appeal to a wider audience.

The idea behind the project is to promote rollerblading to potential new rollerbladers and was not aimed for the current inline market specifically but to help a new generation find a new vocation!

Thanks to Kepa Gainza for the edit.

quoting Oli Benet:

I wanted to film a complete profile and so I started with the smaller maneuvers, intending to compliment the profile with a few hammers to finish it off. I wanted to have it completed by the end of September.

However, I tore my ankle on a stupid warm-up trick and 3 weeks later it still hurts even to walk on.

I will be going on tour to Singapore at the end of October with X-mini and I want to be 100% for that, so I decided to put out what I had done and will start filming again as soon as I get back – shoulders and ankles willing.

I want to give a shout out to all my Conference family at Conference & also to Inercia, X-mini and a big thanks to Tony Cheetah for being Barcelona’s favourite cameraman – skater – editor and for going out of his way to film and edit this.

Oh and the title! I have been skating freestyle, aggressive stunt (or whatever you want to call it) skating for about 13-14 years, and picked up my first skates at the age of 8, making it a whopping total of 20 years on skates ; thought it might fit as a title for this ‘lil edit.

The Gum that changes taste from rasberry to mint.

Agency: JWT Köpenhamn ; Prod Co: Friendly Film. Creative Director: David Asmussen ; Director: Fredrik Callingaard.

Syndicates asignment was to give the early spring Barcelona footage a rasberry flavor that later turned into an icecool mint taste. So apart form regular online effects such as CG set extentions the main part of the work was to cover the streets with CG ice.
