Ok, so here’s the official press release to address all of the rumors about the Create Originals pro team. When the three of us started Create, we had a vision for how we wanted to portray the company, team and image.

Our goal is to provide the best for the skate community in all aspects, not only with our product but with our team image and riders as well. Basically, we wanted to offer more than a new product, we wanted to give the skate community something to be excited about and proud of.

That being said, we at Create Originals are very proud to announce our TWO newest pro riders, Chris Farmer Alex Broskow. We’re excited to have them on board and you can expect to see a lot of cool things coming from Create Originals in 2010. Welcome to the team fellas! CO. - Billy O’Neill.

Good skating is good skating whether it’s filmed in an hour, a day, a month or a year. Time is not important. But if you’re wondering, this is about 10 days of skating with Iain Mcleod. He is now filming a new profile over the next 6 months.

If somebody can put USD where it deserves again that´s this guy. Back in the day when we were all flipping on Latimers new profile he was out there travelling with the All star team, settling up the original Stretch Crew and making this brand legendary. Now he´s back in rollerblading and probably has a harder mission. It´s an honor for us to present this interview with Mark Korte.

Present yourself.

Thanks, My name is Mark Korte – I am the USD Enforcer, an Army Reserve Solider, Father, Husband, Son and Powerslider.

Why did you leave and why are you back in rolling? Did you feel it was time to return?

Actually that is not far from the truth – when I left, I felt it was time for me to develop as a Sales and Brand Manager, some things in my life had changed, and I was looking for a new challenge, something that would be hard but fun, as I had been getting more and more involved with Golf as my hobby, I decided to go into the golf business and see how far I could go, the rest is history, as for coming back. That was a given really, I was always in touch with Matthias and we talked about me coming back and I was happy to come back as Powerslide is like a second home, and USD was a big part of my life for over 6 years, coming back gives me another challenge and I have the chance to lead a great team again and that is always where my talents lay.

Tony Rivituso - Interview on Remz.com (2009)

Whatup Tony, introduce yourself plz

My name is Tony Rivituso, I am 25 years old (26 in November!) and have been skating for 10+ years. I’ve been known to grom out on “insert bad-ass pro’s name here” now and then, and I’ll always respect what the legends have done for our sport. But it’s the homies that always inspire me to skate the hardest.

How is the Rolling scene in your beautiful city?

I live in Las Vegas right now with my two roommates Brett Walters and Jeremy Cloe. We’re the resident blade house so if you’re out here, hit us up! Vegas has a pretty healthy scene with a lot of younger dudes holding it down for the next generation. […]

Interview on Remz.com (saved on Archive.org).

Who is Mark Korte and what does he have to do with rollerblading?

I can basically answer that by saying… I am the USD Enforcer, one of the founders of the Stretch Crew, and a Powerslide veteran… since a lot of kids might not know what in the hell that means, I will break it down.

I came to be part of USD in the late part of ‘98, when the team was Arlo Eisenberg, Champion Baumstimler, Dustin Latimer, Jon Julio, and Josh Petty. At the time I was only hired by Powerslide to push papers, but that changed after a week or so.

To make a long story short, I had found my calling. I got to know all of the USD team (which was going through a transition period, much like we are now) and I ended up being the filter between the company and the team; I might even go as far as to say the glue, and at the same time I was the International Sales Manager at Powerslide.

So I was able to combine all of that into helping make USD (and The Conference Brands that followed) the hottest thing available. During this period, of which I am very proud to be a part of, we had the undisputed best team in Rolling, I built a worldwide flow team to rival all others at the time, and worked with distributors in over 40 countries building USD.

I was very adament about everything having structure, and working with the best team of rollers in the world has moulded my personality to this day, and I am grateful to each and every one who ever rolled for USD. […]
