Filmed over a couple of spring weekends before Martin’s Knee Operation. When I posted this I didn’t have the words to add so I will leave a message from the man himself: “I went to war for this part, physically and mentally. We chose a song that reflects my long lasting love for this profession. I’ve applied myself for the best part of 24 years! I hope you all enjoy !".

Martin’s words sum this up perfectly, he went to town on the spots giving it his all in the weekends leading up to his operation. The commitment and sacrifice Martin gave with the potential of aggravating a long term injury shows how much he loves rollerblading. As always the time spent making this was inspiring and rewarding in equal parts. I thank Martin for all of this as without him taking these risks I’d just be another dude with a camera, for his friendship and for everyone who helped us make this happen.

“This needed to be re-up’d. Filmed in one day, down one street in the UK’s capital, London. This demonstrates how hard wearing the Go project wheels are. And how they can handle punishment when Leon Humphries serves his sorcery. Leon is not messing around when it comes to blading, or anything else, as a matter of fact”.
