SHOCK: JEFF DALNAS AND THE FIRST PULLS OF SPRING

How did growing up in Rhode Island effect the course of your coming up in the blade game? Did it help or hinder your ability to get exposure, clips in videos, photos in magazines, etc.
Growing up in RI was definitely to my disadvantage trying to come up in the blade game. Before there was the internet with online edits, it was kind of hard to get noticed if you didn’t live in Cali or NY. Now you can be from anywhere and get noticed.
Why do you still live in Rhode Island? I know you briefly moved to California, what pulled you back east?
I didn’t really move to Cali, I was there for like 3 weeks and had no where to stay soo I bounced back home. But I don’t know why I stay in RI.. its home for me, I feel like the rest of the country is weird haha. I love to visit places but i always like being back here, especially in the summer. [...]

Yo, I’m down to do the interview. We should just do it ichat conversation stylee and just talk about shit. Maybe one conversation or a few over time. Just freestyle the shit outta it…
are there any points in your mind that you would just like to discuss? I know that sometimes when I do interviews I wish people would ask me questions about certain things because I’ve had shit on my mind. Lemme know dewey!
Haha, freestylin it all the way sounds funny, the ichat thing is clever… Well I’d just like people to know first off, that rollerblading is the most under-rated “action-sport” (or whatever label you want to put on it) out there. I think our industry could definitely use more corporate sponser involvement like it did back in the day when I was able to buy “Senate” shirts at “Bicycle World” in my hometown Harlingen, TX.
I hate seeing how skateboarding is so popular only because it means less money for more professionals like yourself to make a sweet sustainable living. I think our industry needs to have the vibes we had back in the 90s, when all bladers were a lot more chill and fun… I don’t believe that competition formats are the only way to get your name out there or be labeled a “pro”… I respect you Rob G because of the creative way you choose to skate and because it motivates me to have more fun with it although I’m always an advocate of people who drop raw hammers… [...]

Shock: Big Puller Ranier Piramide is Back on the scene
Wednesday, November 11th, 2009
At the end of my block is the park I grew up at. I remember seeing a pack of rollerbladers that would blade past my house jumping off of the little dips in the driveways to end up at the park.
They would grind the red curbs at the parking lot and a bench that was stolen from the school across the street that was placed down a two step stage.
They were the kids that were two grades older than me that I had hoped to one day be just like. [...]

Shock: Clement Milot ‘There are Spots Everywhere’
Tuesday, September 22nd, 2009
What is going on with the blading scene in France? Where did it find its beginnings? Is there something distinctive about French blading, what is it?
I don’t find that there is something that really distinguishes the French blading scene from another.
There are a lot of talented skaters, all levels combined, with very different styles, who can’t access the recognition of being entitled a pro. From the top of my head as an example there’s Julien Cudot, Adrien Anne, Matthias Sillan and many more.
Skaters here either like to skate on their own, some prefer real group street sessions others are really motivated travel-wise and go to nearly all the contests (the European ones at least). However as far as skating goes I must say that there are very few infrastructures, skateparks and the street spots are never perfect and turn out to be quite difficult. But that’s actually a plus side and gives birth to crazy skaters such as Cyril Daniel and Mathieu Heinnemann…
I can keep trying to describe the french blading scene but actually there just isn’t a made in France label, which, to my mind, is what makes rollerblading interesting. [...]
