Ironically, Julio was also rather hostile towards idea of mixing aggressive skating with big wheels at the time. It is good to see he has matured, though.
@@tawmifm yeah, people tend to grow and become more mature over time :) I kind of get it, though. Back when Powerslide have came out with a concept of powerblading (aka grindable big wheel frames mounted to aggressive boot), aggressive inline was in a rather rought spot. I think Julio was massively frustrated by that, especially after his Valo Light project has proven to be a failure and simply a poorly engineered product (I recall people bolting fking METAL PLATES inside the shell to make it more durable, thus removing "Light" part of the equation). Then something he tried to distance from his whole career and build an image of rollerblading as a "serious" action sport by nurturing its specific culture, comes in and steals the thunder. Everyone out of sudden starts to roll on big wheels and do less "core tricks", more "goofing around". Being an OG he simply went into "kids these days!" mode and he wasn't alone. Farmer did the same even though he was sponsored by Powerslide (through Xsjado and Unercover). Beau Cottington was having a hate diarrhea all over social rollerblading channels, lol.
This video is the first one I’ve seen that captures the spirit of what inline skating has become while successfully shaking off the preconceptions of what it used to be. Attaching wheels to your feet and flying through dystopian cityscapes is the future, not the past.
Damn this is so dope, couldn’t be a better time for blading atm. Don’t stop these THEM X Brain Dead collabs. So dope seeing all disciplines been embraced and put out there looking fresh. The skates and the collection look crazy. Awesome work team 👌🏽👌🏽
Man this might be the best blading edit ever. Production quality wise for sure. Congratulations to everyone involved. You guys made blading look absolute incredible. Especially props to the filming and editing. That intro shot of the dude... and the related ones and those tilted angles... damn... I've watched it 4 times already. Love it. Great work.
Master flow skills! Editing and tunes are out of this world. Just made a clip on the best value wizarding setup and THEM skates is definitely the boot to go for, but dang, even if this has a premium tag on it, every part makes sense.... This setup looks killer 🤘🏻!!!
I watched this video so many times. He has style. The shoes are beautiful. I love the animation too 0:46 What is this move called? Looks like he's scything the ground with his skates, it's so stylish
You don't necessarily need special skates, especially not at the start. You can wear a natural rocker into your wheels or even use different sized ones to create a rocker and get started on your current skates.
What kind of frames are those and where can I get them? I have Them 909’s. Definitely need some wizard recommendations. Also Im producer getting a vlog rolling. I love the audio choice for this with the music, very inspiring. The videography dope AF too.
Replay value is high on this edit!
Things just went up a level.
@Mike Torres thats a Masterpiece of a Promo Edi🙌
absolut awsome🔥🔥🔥
Who else is watching this for the 10th time
I just almost lose my train watching it for the Xth time... Definitely more than 20 times
Meeeee😊
only watched it for like the 0.5th time
Something like that yeah haha 🤙
So happy I invested in these frames, feels like a little piece of rolling history.
Meeee 🤘
That's amazing! Really awesome movement. I ride bmx, but I'd love to see this sport take off and get more recognition. It's super dope.
I love that comment bro benny to BMX for a long time And I also boot And board!
yo wtf im more hyped than i ever was in my life
I just jumped out a window
wait, is the McRib back?
Amen bro 🙏🏾
I cannot stop watching this video. I'm obsessed with it.
한국 사람이라는것이 너무 자랑스럽습니다.!
Но что лично ты сделал для того, чтобы этим гордиться, чувак? Самое последнее дело ратовать за это.
Wow, awesome control.
inline fashion skates, mmyammi))
the quality of the production blows my mind 🤯🔥🥰
About a year since this video dropped and it still hits hard! Still using the frames, hopefully for many more years to come.
Incredible!!! Mike, please continue to partner with JK, you guys are a dynamic duo.
this is one of the best edits ever. so fuckin good
agreed 💯
insane cutting guys! love the transition of animation and real footage!!
Absolutely amazing 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯

These look amazing 🤩
I really don't know what to say.. but this is was super awesome.. you're super.. wish to see more.. Thank you guys
Man this is so rad. Shout out the to haters who tried to squish this type of skating 8 years ago. Look where its come!

@@kamilciura7953 What do you mean by hostile though? Was he just not open to doing it himself?
@@tawmifm
He tweeted something along the lines "this is not what we do. This crap have no place in rollerblading". Seems pretty hostile imo.
@@kamilciura7953 Damn ok. I guess he's had a massive change of heart given that there's clips of him in big wheels now 🤔

Seriously, huge props to Mike Torres. He's the GOAT when it comes to skate video production.
@@seamlessdread they should make a skate vid on him tbh, he's absolutely insane on aggressive and wizard skating
@@DeltaCressida Definitely. Have you seen his latest Instagram story??
also this.
@@seamlessdread Yeah i always stay updated on his skating, i dont know why not much people mentions Mike Torrez' skating style
man, I have to admit this guy's fashion is only outdone by his skating. This is a modern twist on the VG6 era
This video is amazing! - LOVE IT!
I like to rewatch this time to time for inspiration this became an instant classic now
This looks like so much fun
Downright FILTHY!!! love it.
I’ve found it. This is the most hype skating video on the internet. Absolutely unreal!
The Intro is soooo craazzzy
This is really well done 👍
Great work y’all
😎
jaw on the floor
This skate is so fucking dope!!!! 😲
@Mike torres you nailed it, totally awesome
🔥 🔥🔥

Unreal flow
Impressive 🙌🔥💯
Wow.... What a masterpiece.. Totally flashed.
Skating and cinematic ist insane good!
I just realized the bacemint edit that dropped the same day uses the same brickwall spot in this edit. Kewl.
wow! that was brilliant!
I watched this video so many times.
He has style. The shoes are beautiful.
I love the animation too
0:46 What is this move called? Looks like he's scything the ground with his skates, it's so stylish
thats just a super deep fakie gazelle
@@vincentmartin1002 oh ok thanks
insane
The aluminum frame is pretty~ I like it~👏👍
This is just sick.Pure talent and athleticism.So smooth.Wizard skating on another level.Can't stop watching.
Bravo. So damn cool
o7, great skills /o/
Great edit really great to see wizard skating more!!!
This video is my daily mantra
The most mindblowing part is that he managed to buy baggy pants in the endless era of skinny fit.
Legend!
this melted my brain
i wanna learn wizard skating so bad but i have way to shittty rollerblades i wish i could buy wizard skates
You don't necessarily need special skates, especially not at the start. You can wear a natural rocker into your wheels or even use different sized ones to create a rocker and get started on your current skates.
you can get a budget setup of sorts, there are cheaper alternatives
this dude is the shit really. unmatchable style. had me in awe the whole video
you should watch him in the SeoulSkaters YT channel. He is also amazing in the park
I'll never get sick of watching dis
Dope AF
Just awesome!
love itttttt !!!
Damn!
🌪☄🔥⚡🌊
So dope
this goes so fucking hard
Here we goooooo.
11/10
Doesn't get much better than this 💥
amazing video.
you are making the agressive architechture interesting architecture
GG geming.. more than 10 playing this video.. crazy
WOW
The wizard energy is here
Creative Ridin' + Fantastic Edit + Dope Soundtrack
always liked 5 wheel skates never knew they could do that
I skated sprung skates for a decade, feels like they were the precursor to the flat pivot moves. The new rocker style is super flowy. Def wanna try.
How to skate like this
Does anyone know where I can find cool frames like these?
Yes please anyone, these look dope af🔥
Cool
Everybody in this comments section needs to open their own skates only skatepark in their city immediately.
Oh shit, I almost forgot to watch this today.
That was awesome!!
Amazing
ART .
Best shit right now holy fuck
sick video!!
simplemente hermoso
i rlly need to see someone doing (or trying to do) wizard skating with freeskating rollers
👏🏼
wow
What kind of frames are those and where can I get them? I have Them 909’s. Definitely need some wizard recommendations. Also Im producer getting a vlog rolling. I love the audio choice for this with the music, very inspiring. The videography dope AF too.
Keen
WOW! just 🤯🤯🤯
This is so fucking fire
Is he human?
He is a wizard
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥😍👌👌

WHO knows where this is filmed?
Are those 5x80mm or 5x76mm? I honestly couldn’t tell
Daily dose of JK
Парень родился в роликовых коньках! Но звук - это просто кровь из ушей..)
The same style of leon basin
Anyone know what frame that is?
How do I buy these?
Please does anyone know?🙏
