That rocket fishbrain shirt is insane. I NEED ONE! Could you see if he will comission it to your OTAD site? Those need to be everywhere. Plus seeing the GAP GOD Eric Perkett made me smile. Btw it took me like 5 mins of nonstop brain power to try to remember what the name of the song was just by hearing "This is our turf". I knew that voice from something... AND I FIGURED IT OUT.. PHARCYDE - DROP!! F - YEAH !! "the worth of my birth is a MILLION" XD 7:53
When my Dad got stationed in Alamogordo NM back in 03 I was ALL alone. Stuff like this helps everyone who doesnt live in a skating hub feel connected in such a real way. You're the GOAT for documenting and helping facilitate this stuff Rachard. Truly thank you, this is so beautiful. Rolling lives forever!!!
This is incredible, such a big turn out and y'all even got clothes stalls and food! Props to everyone involved in doing this, you've got a great community🙌
This looks like the funnest session ever. I'm 37 years old and I got back in to Blading after a 15 year hiatus. I have been blading again for about 2 and 1/2 years . I feel I am getting a little bit better not as good as I was back in the day but it doesn't matter cuz it is a funnest thing in the world.
Rolling is thriving nowadays like I haven't seen since the big boom in the 90's. I can tell you from an NYC point of view that the scene is prospering here as well. It's the 2nd coming! It's a beautiful thing! I'm in my 40s, haven't bladed in over a decade but I'm about to get me some new skates!
That looks like everyone had an awesome time. Man, I wish I lived in California, you guys have the best weather. We are lucky if we get a week a year like that in the UK 😂
Yo man! I’m so happy to have found your channel! Watched all of them. You got me excited. Getting back into roller blades after 22 years since i last left them. Let’s go!
Thank you, Rachard Johnson, for doing this. I've watched all your videos and shared them. But, where are your own skate clips, bro? I'd love to see them. Greeting from Taiwan, Japan, and Brazil
@@rachardjohnson i know you're not customer service lol, but is their a website you could recommend that is the best for aggressive inline skates and parts? And do all bearings they sell fit all wheel sizes? I ordered a set of abec9 bearings since my skates that I just ordered only come with 5's. I'd like to order some other stuff to get a little more custom and replace parts when needed.
Let’s GOOOOO! Man… amazing day, amazing community, amazing skating goin down… what more could we ask for?! Looking forward to the next one. P.S. Congratulations to MYSELF! 😏
Was it Perkett with the flimsy legs ? I know how it feels. Could not support a soul grind when I got back at blading, even though I could run for 10 miles, you need those specific blading muscles ;-)
Hahahah .. I hadn't skated since about 2009, went for two or three short handrail sessions by myself in 2020, about three more park sessions in early 2021 and then figured I could go keep up with the local pros at our country's biggest annual event, at a big skate park. Ended up limping away with a new black and blue C-cup titty hip and about three cracked ribs. To be fair, they over-waxed the main handrail and I was bombing it with speed thinking that my outdated Razors Genesys L.E anti-rockers would be slower than everybody else. Kept slipping out mid-rail and straight up eating concrete/rail. Only landed about 6 solid tricks that day. Hahahah! And when you're 31, shit takes months to heal!
@@prometheusofplanetx6176 You’ll get back your skills pretty fast, just need to progressively rebuild the basics without rushing. I got back at blading at 43, took me 6 months to feel really confident. After a year I started to learn new tricks.
@@cfronin I was actually doing surprisingly well to get back on track from where I left off as a 19 year old. It was that skate comp that stripped all confidence away from me. Been skating a small practice rail at home for the last two days, trying to build myself up again and also re-learning how to skate flat for the first time since I can even remember. As long as I'm having fun, I skate better. Got a serious competitive streak I've gottah keep in check, because it's just unrealistic when you're just getting back into skating and haven't been consistent. Before this week, hadn't skated for a couple months due to bad weather. No more excuses now. Sun is shining! Thanks for the advice brodog! Don't forget to stretch after warming up. (Cold Muscle Fibre doesn't stretch, it tears). 😁
@@nickdautel1351 Usually three weeks before we start making promotion but this month has been busy for all of us and half of the group is going to be out of town it is going to be Labor Day and my birthday so we might do a first second Sunday event just accommodating with the weekend schedule
@@rachardjohnson ah I gotcha, no worries. I wouldn’t be able to make it out that way until later this year, I’m in FL. I’ll forsure DM you in the future if I can actually pull it off, would be a pretty sweet weekend vacation!
Damn this is sick, i use to skate back in my younger days, today i came across some - elite series q60 roller blades brande new for $25 couldnt pass that up now im here .
I have not been skating for like 15 years now but your videos make me wanna bring it back to life. I was not on pro level when i stopped skating but maybe on a average level. Do you have a recommendation on blades i should get?
My guy! I'm in the same predicament. Went skating for the first time in 10 years properly. Laced a few back royales on small rails but can't do soul tricks for shir anymore haha
2:10 and 9:34 shout out an old childhood friend in Ronnie!!! (If i remember correctly) Our dad's did construction together back in the 90's Also, went to olive vista middle school together. Hope all is well buddy glad to see your teaching the little ones dude!
Man am 34 got back into blading after a 3 year gap (bad knee and that). These make me feel part of a great community. Keep it up!!
Yessir will do
This is the kind of grass roots event that blading needs. Looks like I need to make the trek down to LA here in the near future.
Had a blast! It was great to meet you Rachard and thank you for bringing the community together, catch you at the next sesh
Can’t wait
This pumps me up! It’s so live out there.
It def is bro
amazing clips and tricks and fun to watch, keep the good work going
Love this.. We need one every Sunday at least ❤️🙌🙏
At least we have it every 1st Sunday 🙂🙃
