Lucas Bauaman what the hell are you talking about art/dance/communication? This isnt your art school its rollerblading and it has no boundaries within our chosen form so there arent any subcatergories in what for of skating we do , the catergories are of inline like, hockey, speed, rec, and what we call rollerblading(which is basically trick skating).

heel roll for that distance was revolutionary at that time. this isn’t made to compete with, it’s to show where things came from…dunkle for example, expanded more than anyone on the toe roll, but I’m sure he would awknowledge those who came before him, in this case erik burke (by the way that toe roll was in a line and he was talking to the camera, I’m sure it was one take).

as far as sub genre of rollerblading, why not. there’s already stunt rollerblading, freestyle rolling, tech skating, etc, I think doing the creative work of rollerblading and seeing it as an art/dance/communication with your environment is worthy of its own title, in fact this is the place where all those other sub genres grew from (for example, what is now tech was once creative) so mushroom blading really, embodies the avante garde of rollerblading.

what Im TRYING to say is it would be stupid to make creative, imaginitive skating a sub genre of Inline skating. If thats what they are saying it is. sorry about all the comments

If they want to call their video that so that people have an idea of what sort of skating will be in it, fine but I dont think it should start being used as term to describe a way of skating. If someone skates creatively, interprets something in a diferent way, its just a way that that person rolls, everyone has their own style and skates differently, its not ‘mushroom blading’ thats blading. It is self expression, it is you and people are of course different.
Its great seeing these clips, it will probably also show some people that you can skate anything.

I prefer watching this than most of the edits out these days cos it just looks so fun and creative except some of the stuff was sketchy. Is that what they call Mushroom Blading? Is it just a weird term for creative, fun, improv, tech, good skating ?

I have YET to see anyone do anything like that double heel slide craziness Edwards did at the end of that video. Praise the Legends!

Straight Up, this should be mandatory for any skater to watch. This is exactly a look into the past of innovation and a fine guideline to where we are goin in the future. So many of those tricks featured could be in videos today and in fact the clips that arent good enough to be in a video nowadays are still a great building base for tricks to come in the future. Any ill pro now or even some who did those tricks then could go back and upgrade the tricks they already done. For example the last clip with elliot’s roll to grind that def could be used in a video now but skaters nowadays, like him could roll that insane skinny rail to a more techinal but steezed grind. Imagine 360 ofF the roll to grind!!!!!
