Is Winterclash the greatest inline, rollerblading competition ever and is there anything new they could do? Winterclash started in 2005 and it’s been a rollercoaster. The best rollerbladers from across the world come to compete. Winners include Joe Atkinson, Brian Aragon, Erik Bailey, Julien Cudot, Nils Jansons, David Sizemore, Montre Livingston and more (Full Winterclash 2005 - 2020 Results). The event brings the inline skating community together and is much more than a competition. There is trade shows, premiers, screenings, discussion panels, interviews and loads more.

Dear Rollerblading, It is time to catch up. We need this. Urgently! We need the high fives, the hugs, the laughter. We need a reunion. We want to scream our lungs out over the next insane trick and we miss the joy of landing a trick for the very first time in front of hundreds of fellow bladers.

We need to share stories and experience on stage, need to go bonkers during an epic movie night, need to party hard with old and new friends from 50+ different countries by night. We need that unique sense of community and all of us need to be in the same place at once.

It is about time for THE CATCH UP. Winterclash 2023, February 9th · 10th · 11th, Area 51 Skatepark, Eindhoven / The Netherlands. Tickets out now.

The extensive judging report can be found HERE as a .pdf. Judges: Friederike Charlotte Reisch (Ger), Michael Buhl Jonassen (DK), Sebastian Gruba (PL).

Winterclash is not a sport event and it’s not about rankings, how you look like or who you are. Winterclash is about every single person that travels from all over the world to enjoy a weekend on wheels and celebrate what we all love the most: Blading.

Music: “Foe to Friend” by Kashmir.

Thanks for 10 years Winterclash. We will see you next year! Camera: Peter Bender, Maciej Tomków, Benjamin Büttner. Cut & Color: Benjamin Büttner. Sound: André Klar.
