“The VG Series has been influential in documenting and promoting the aggressive inline skating culture. These videos typically feature a mix of street and park skating from both established and upcoming skaters, showcasing a variety of styles and skills”.

“VideoGroove 22, like other entries in the series, would have captured the essence of rollerblading during its release period, highlighting the latest tricks, trends, and personalities in the sport. The VideoGroove series is appreciated for its raw and authentic portrayal of the rollerblading community, often with a gritty, grassroots feel that resonates with core enthusiasts and athletes in the scene. Each edition, including VG22, plays a crucial role in chronicling the evolution and diversity of rollerblading”. - Skate Center.

Quoting Fabiola Da Silva:

“Wow, my first Pro Aeon from USD - this is my dream skate! I wanted to make it as beautiful as possible, starting with the color, an açaí shade inspired by the fruit I love, which is very popular in Brazil”.

“Another amazing and unique detail is the leopard-print MyFit Prime liners. I chose these liners for their maximum support and comfort. I love the combination with the leopard print. My skate also features a pink height-adjustable AEON cuff, providing the perfect flex—a great combination for all the bladies out there. I chose 45-degree straps across the instep for added support and stability, with a small lion’s face logo on top symbolizing resilience and power. For speed, my skates come with WICKED Abec 9 bearings and exclusive USD wheels (60mm, 88a), where we added my lion logo representing my gratitude to God. The USD design team and I created a skate I can truly identify with—beautiful, graceful, and powerful. It’s ready to roll straight out of the box. Enjoy skating with my Pro skate, and always remember: there are no limits for those who want to fly”. - Fabiola Da Silva.

“This edit is the result of a summer of street skating here in Ireland. Robin was eager to get back out skating after filming the Motus short documentary (PLAY) and his recent sponsorship with Kaltik was a great source of motivation. Following the filming of our last project we decided an introduction edit for Robin was in order”.

“Robin Marillier, South African born and Irish raised has been skating for the past 15 years. I met Robin in our home town skatepark over three years ago and seeing his progress, primarily in street skating, has been a great inspiration for myself and is what led me to filming skating”.

“This edit is a special one because I have not just watched Robin grow as a skater but also in his personal life. The final credit scene was the last day we shot for Robins edit. He had just returned from America. We got a bite to eat and reflected on the project. Here Robin told me that he had just proposed to his now fiancée Samantha. Congratulations to the both of you! Enjoy the edit! Much more to come!”. - Motus.
