If you were lucky enough to catch the 8th annual A-Town Stomp right here in Atlanta, you know just how dope it was to squad up in huge numbers in the way that only the brothers Starnes can muster this year with the help of craftsman and all around edgy dude, Adam Bazydlo, the Stomp took place along the city’s well-populated Beltline trail.

Despite the sweltering heat, surprise thunderstorms and immense crowds of spectators, Carson and Brian Starnes managed to keep the masses in check, detailing spot after spot for registered riders to rip. The crowning achievement for this year’s contest was definitely the retrofitted minivan. Well-respected bladers like Julian Bah, Jon Cooley, and Chris Smith took to this year’s obstacle like they’d been planning on it their whole lives. […]

ESA 2017, More Media: Video, Report and Results.

For quite some time now people we’ve heard here and there that blading is dying, we hear that so much that great stories could possibly be forgotten… ESA’s (Evolution Street Attack) first edition was in 2002 and still well alive in 2017. Successive generations of Montpellierans have passed on the torch to keep this contest alive.

This year again the OGs where still here (you may have been introduced to Alban, Salamech, Namo, Bastien for a few years now) skating along some younger kids newer to the streets; I guess it’s quite a good sign for a bright future […].

Rollinz 2018: Let us make the event happen again – together

Hello everybody! To all the people who don’t know me, my name is Werner Schumann. I am passionate about rollerblading and I did organize a lot of rollerblading-events in the past.

Now after quite a long break, I really want to help the Austrian rollerblading-scene to grow again by organizing a big event. In the last few years, rollerblading in Austria did not get the great attention which it deserved, and with that project we can bring the Sport into the spotlight again!

The Rollinz itself is one of the most well-known rollerblading contests to ever be held in Austria. The competition was first held in 2010, and in the years following has become one of the most successful contests of its kind.

After a 6-year break, the Rollinz will finally return, however, we need your help to make this dream a reality! Back in 2012, riders from all over Europe attended the competition, and we hope to see this again at the Rollinz in 2018.
