Bloom is proud to introduce their third wheel offering: the Mick Casals 58MM/90A pro wheel. 10% of profits will be donated to an organization Mick chose. Visit Ridewithbloom.com.

“I chose RAINN for my wheel highlight. RAINN operates the National Sexual Assault Hotline, an organization I wasn’t aware of until long after my experiences with sexual abuse. As an adult, it’s a strange thing to come to terms with. Something I couldn’t comprehend until I was older. Yesterday or yesteryear, you can still seek help. If you or someone you know is struggling, don’t keep it a secret. Reach out to friends, family, or an organization like RAINN.org”. - Mick Casals.

It is waaay too cold to be outside, but we’re out here. Also, it turns out that trying to record audio under a very loud overpass wasn’t the best idea, haha. This is a short one, not too many steps to this trick. I still think it’s important to go over though.

I stress the importance of non-dominant foot placement in the video. On average, I’ve noticed most backwards grinding pornstars are locked perfectly. They have to be locked perfectly or else you’ll stick. The forwards versions can be done pretty lazily. While doing the forwards versions, the back foot can be all over the top of the ledge, sliding all over the place with no clearly defined position.

I think consistency is important. I think if we’re going to spend this much time doing something, we should give it the respect of thought and effort. Thank you to Mick Casals for being the talent and to Anthony Medina for sending me a very sick sidewalk example. As I said at the beginning of the video, if you’ve watched any of the other ones, commented, sent any messages to me, etc.. Thank you. It may not seem like much, but I’m always so surprised to see the amount of love that is shown from our community. Y’all are rad. - Cody Sanders.

Denver, Colorado - September 25, 2021. A week after the Bay Area Skate Series and we’re back on the west coast for another street competition. With cool fresh air and beautiful mountains looming in the background; it was a perfect day for a contest. As usual, nothing short of good times and good vibes. Shout out to the organizers for keeping one of the longest run street comps alive and well, everyone who came out and to everyone who skated. Cheers!

2 years ago we set out to create a video dedicated to Keaton Newsom. The more I talked about it with people the more it became clear, the only name fitting enough for it would have to be “Candy”. Before Keaton took over as team manager for Ground Control he had been working on releasing a wheel company called “Candy”. We couldn’t think of a better way to honor our brother. Due to the cause, everybody wanted to get involved in one way or another. This is the end result: blading straight from the heart. Anthony Medina.
