Vous Etes Servy, with Stéphane Alfano (Interview)

Nicolas Servy launched a new serie on his Youtube Channel called Vous Etes Servy (you’re served, french wordplay with his family name) and it’s probably the best interview format rollerblading has ever seen. Stephane Alfano is the first guest. If you don’t speak french, you might want to turn on the auto generated subs (spoiler alert: it’s bad, shame on you Google) or tune at the end of the video to enjoy the custom homemade game of B.L.A.D.E.

Franky Morales: NEW Rollerblading Game - Franky's World (March 2023) - Brazilionaire Interview

Franky Morales: NEW Rollerblading Game - Franky's World (March 2023) - Brazilionaire Interview

Franky Morales is one of the most iconic skaters of all time. I remember playing him in a video game when I was a teenager. It’s crazy to think that now we’re friends and have been able to film / skate together several times throughout the years. This is the first part of a longer interview I recently did with him. New clips coming soon! - Brazilionaire.

Franky Morales: NEW Rollerblading Game - Franky's World (March 2023) - Brazilionaire Interview

Previously: FRANKY’S WORLD - The Lost City (PS5) TRAILER - Franky Morales x Ulysse Prom.

Notes: By Blueprint coding, Franky Morales is probably speaking about the Blueprint Visual Scripting system in Unreal Engine ; which is “a complete gameplay scripting system based on the concept of using a node-based interface to create gameplay elements from within Unreal Editor. As with many common scripting languages, it is used to define object-oriented (OO) classes or objects in the engine”.

Franky Morales is working with Ulysse Prom on the game. Ulysse did a lof of kitbashing on Unreal Engine. Kitbashing is about using bought 3d models, to quickly create / prototype more complex environnement. Like using various buildings, roads, assets to quickly create a city ; it’s quite common in the gaming industry or even in movies to create storyboards, demos more effienciently.

Brazilionaire released another video featuring a fellow Rollerblader: Matt Ardine: Everything Everywhere All At Once, Childish Gambino and Rollerblading (Youtube Link).

Face to Face with Robert Guerrero, a Rollerblading Legend (2022)

Face to Face with Robert Guerrero, a Rollerblading Legend (2022)

Welcome to episode 1 of Face to Face with Robert Guerrero, where we sit down together and discuss his past, present, and future in rollerblading. Robert is currently in Drummondville, Quebec, a two-hour drive from me here in Vermont, where I recently visited him to skate and create content for this channel. We sat down to reminisce on our past, discuss what he’s been up to, and find out his future. We cover how we first met and dig into his early years of skating in Austin, Texas, and San Jose, California, with people like Jason Howard, Jon Julio, Jayson Reduta, and Erick Garcia.

Face to Face with Robert Guerrero, a Rollerblading Legend (2022)

We talk about how his first crew kicked him out and how this made him focus on becoming the best skater in San Jose. Then we go over some highlights from the two sections we filmed together in Urban Decay and DBV5 No One’s Children. We get into the misguided practice of forcing your feet in skates too small for you. Robert then reveals why he is in Quebec, where he was before, and his plans to go to Europe and stay with Ricardo Lino, Mirek from Hedonskate, and then instruct at Blading Camp in Spain. To finish the episode, we watch and react to footage I filmed of him in the mid-90s and his sections in Urban Decay and DBV5 No One’s Children.

Robert Guerrero - DBV5, No One’s Children Section (2002)

This is the Robert Guerrero section from Daily Bread Magazine Video #5 “No Ones Children” from 2002.
