I just spent a week in Dallas with Fritz Peitzner and what started out as work trip turned into one of the best skate trips I’ve had. Great vibes and awesome sessions fueled this into a really fun time. - Ryan Buck Strauss.
Rounding out 2017 is Jiovanni Brown from Dallas Tx. He’s the most talented rollerblader in our scene that you’ve probably never heard about.
We took it upon ourselves to flip the script and bring his skating to light. It has been a good year. Expect to see more of Jiovanni in 2018! Filmed and edited by: Troy Maimone, additional filming by Jason Reyna.
Fritz Peitzner & Troy Maimone went for a Christmas session at a new skatepark in Dallas, Texas.
What to say about Jimmy Johnson? Jimmy is a Dallas/ Fort Worth local and one of the nicest guys to blade with.
The dude is good vibes. He always seems to surprise us with some trick we weren’t expecting. It’s been a pleasure to work on this piece. Look for more out on the horizon. - Troy Maimone.
Showcasing only a portion of the Dallas rollerblading scene. Additional filming by Jason Reyna and John Sullivan. More to come soon. Keep it Rolling!
