Back in the day…

Roller skating wasn’t just a crazy, spandex-covered fad from the 1970’s & 80’s, there’s actually a pretty rich history of amazing footwork.

This is a beautiful, inspiring piece from the late, great Gene Kelly. He is one of my favorite all-time performers and this skate number is just another reason why.  Enjoy!

I’m not gonna lie though. This happened too.

New skates, new blog!

Just laced up my brand new 220’s (Thanks to Bay Area Skate!) so I thought it would be a fitting to launch a new skate blog!

One of my favorite places to skate is “Skatin’ Place” in San Francisco’s Golden Gate park.
I want to tell you all about this vibrant community in future posts, but for now, just a quick peek at how I roll.

Check back soon for more great skate videos and great music to get your skate on!
