Isaac Callen (Auckland, New Zealand) - ReISSUE. A Rollerblading, Street Edit by the wonderful Shred City Skates.

The Blade Jam is a comp hosted by Tim from Weerd Van Skatepark Solutions at the amazing Bay skate facility. This comp is now in its 4th year down in Napier and this year the level of riding was off the hook with heaps of old cats coming out of retirement from all round the country to get to skate with the homies and hang like its 1999. - Niam Kerr-Bell.

Thanks too all of the sponsors for their ongoing and unwavering support of our little skate scene: Shred City Skates, Standard Skate Company, Drug Receipts, Laced NZ, Stay Rolling Clothing, Illusive Wheels, Hapi, Vinci’s Pizza, X Air, ESC, Keith Lin Tattoo, CLW Construction.

It’s my birthday on the 8th and I’ll release this early and go blading if I want to. Filmed from mid April to end of May, in-between work, weather, and day to day life. On the solo missions. Here’s to 20+ years of blading and hopefully till the end of my days! Stay rad and keep shredding. - Kelvin Wong (Shred City Skates).

Kelvin Wong - Cave Crew Shodcast

The man behind Shredcityskates.com, NZ’s only skateshop dedicated to all things rollerblading & rollerskating is our fifth guest on the shodcast. Kelvin has done so much for the sport in recent years sponsoring events and bringing product to our shores that was unattainable for most before he was around all the while bringing the much needed hype to the NZ skating scene.

Kelvin also has some long history in the sport and we are interested in shedding some light on his skating origin story. We cant forget he’s a killer on skates as well and can spin both ways and can fakie 540 everything.

Previously: Cave Crew Shodcast with Slug Lord A.K.A Ryan Roulston (New Zealand, 2022).

Our guest on the Cave Crew Shodcast is the infamous Sluglord, one of finest exports from Wainuiomata (New Zealand). He’s one of the few sponsored skaters in this country with a progressive style and uniquely savvy approach to content creation and use of Instagram. Weve been a fan of his skating for a while so were super happy to chat to him and find out more about the man behind the long hair.

Mickey is an OG and after a long hiatus came back and skated the shit out of the rails at Melville skatepark at the Richard Rowland Memorial OG Comp walking away with the win in the OG division. Found this rad song by the band Fuzz that suits Mickey’s style of skating. - Niam Kerr-Bell.
