A funny thing happened this past Sunday. Stir crazy from the long winter, Alex and I decided that we should try and go for a skate in some of the parkades in downtown Calgary. We quickly learned that the parkades were unskatable. Too wet and slippery to safely skate. The parkades lead into the network of +15s. +15s, given the name because they are 15 feet above the street level, connect all the downtown office buildings. Before we knew it. We were skating for many city blocks from one building to the next. One wrong turn and we ended up in The Core shopping mall.
I must admit, I am not proud that I likely startled innocent people and broke some laws but here it is. I hope you can enjoy the skating.

"Security, we have two crazy people skating in the Mall and you won't be able to catch up with them"
Haha!
M. Di Federico ist so ^^
me and my buddy did this once, zooming through Macy’s n shit😂 the cop was like “we’ve never seen this before”
Yah nameste right before you kill grandpa trying to get his early morning walk in
Skating on floors like this is just the best thing ever
Dope!!! And you hold doors for cameramen! Very nice flow Shaun.
Thanks brother man!
I am sincerely surprised that the mall security is not chasing you as they would in the U.S. Do you have to get special permission first? Very very slick and skillful skating. Beautiful! And again kudos to your camera man. Great guy!
I am just as surprised. We didn't plan anything we just wanted to skate. We were checking out covered park lots and just found are way into the walkways that connect all the buildings.
They know that they just would not be able to catch them.
Also looks like it was early morning in the weekend. Downtown malls are usually not busy
They were probably like: narh its empty today let the man have some fun
They probably don’t have any saying they can’t
My anxiety when I thought the doors wouldn’t open in time be like: 📈📈📈📈📈📈📈
Same here
Were people on tik tok doing this back then?😭
@@siah2saucy216 Tik Tok? Damn you're young lol.
@@lazyvipurr4698 16 😭
would be funny asf tho
THE most hypnotic thing available on TH-cam. PLus, your security guards in Calgary must be seriously chilled...
Jumps down those stairs and cameraman is like “nope! I’ll take my time!” 😂
I miss rollerblading! I stopped when I was about 10ish thought I was to big to do it anymore, but Honestly now In my late 20s just seeing this makes me feel like your never too old to have fun and try out the old hobbie I use to have as a kid. Something to remember, Lifes too short to give a fuck what others think. I'm getting me some blades 😊
1 year later, Did you get'em ?❤❤ I hope you did, if not, you definitely should get one now!
I'm 43 and I skate almost every day
So do you still remember how to skate 😂
i stopped when i was 8ish and i regret it... i want to start again but i feel like i've lost all the balance and grace i had when i was young :")
@@nuzasa1575 Well don’t give up! We have to try and try again until we can do it right?
One word: EPIC!
I loved it!!! 😆
that's 4 words, Tiago!!
D: muhhh! I just wanted to say "Epic!" xD
I always watch your videos too. Suggestion for both of you. Two videos:
1- what kind of wheels do you use and how your wheels wear?
2- 10 tips to go from beginner to advanced?
Which Mall Next?!
I would love to skating inside the old Calgary Science Centre.
Incredible. Looked like endless empty hallways and spaces. Great concept!
We could have skated in there for days.
omg those creamy smooth surfaces, watching you glide through all those corridors was so satisfying 😍
Without a doubt, the freestyle inline skating community is amazing, thanks to people like you
Wow. What a nice compliment. Thank you.
I literally daydream about locations like this🤤
Hospitals
Inside college campuses
Shopping malls
Museums
Freakin _IKEA!!!_
It’s like playing real life Paperboy.. without the papers 🗞 hah😏
Hospitals?

Great vid Shaun! I bet it was smooooooth in there! Kudos to the cameraman too, for keeping up and keeping you in frame so well 🙌
Alex is a beast with the camera. He just keeps getting better and better. He is also getting really good at helping out with directing the lines and setting up shots. A new video out tomorrow and Alex has out done himself again.
Dude... Wtf did I just watch... Amazing!!
Now teach me how to do the heel wheelings on those massive frames and wheels
It really helps to lean into the back of the cuff until you feel like you might fall backwards.
Shop Task I was practicing it the other night, managed to hold it for a little bit... I'll get it.
Is it easier/harder on the big wheels and frame compared to a standard 80mm setup
I perfer the feeling of a heel roll on a longer frame but I can definitely hold the heel roll better on a standard 80. The wheels are closer to your foot on the 80 so it seems to be a bit easier.
You've done (with epic style!) what every skater dreams of being able to do! Great watch - thanks!
Good job, my friend. I wish that in my country it would be allowed to skate in places like this. here prohibit skating in many places while other practices that really are harmful to society are allowed ...
I think the key is to just keep moving and never stay in one spot for too long.
Also scared of getting sued
Imagine a group of 5 or 6 people skating around in a mall at peak hours.
Now also imagine unconfident skaters that cant brake. Im sure you can see how that could be a hazard.
Its not as if there is a screening process where they only allow confident skaters in groups of 3 or less at off peak hours.
Its totally reasonable.
I always keep an eye out for newly built shopping centres and skate them before they put up the signage.
@@vsquar3d It's almost like I've seen that somewhere, many kids on blades in a mall at peak hours.. Quack quack..
Yes, Mighty Ducks is the movie.
@@OriginalPuro That scene is literally the reason why i picked up skating. And could possibly be the reason why skating in malls is banned lol
@Shop Task
big lover bro, what boots and wheels??
Who just loves Justin and his vid.keep up the good work
1:57 gazelle to heel heel!! Wow, so smooth
TheVOVA77 I don't even know how that was possible on frames and wheels that big
I was really happy with that one.
With it being a rockered frame is that what is helping so much with the maneuverability?
You guys really deserves million subscribers, I already became your fan.❤
this is just beautiful to watch.. can't wait for my Wizard setup, saving up for those as we speak.. really awesome flow, love the jump transitions, this is what I've gotta work on next.
epic jump at the end there too, I'm thinking the Wizard frame's length must make it so much easier to land those too. I'm so jealous of your skating environment! I'm in the sticks, gotta travel miles to find good places to skate.. But it's so worth it. Love the video.
I find the long frame to really help with landings, especially when landing forward.
can you do the same thing if you had 310 wheels?
So out ofthe ordinary! The sense of flow and immediateness in following the movement.....
i just discovered this channel and your rides are totally mesmerizing! it's perfect visuals for music listening for me. i put on some stephen hitchell or some ambient sounds and just chill with my headphones on my head. keep up the good work guys. the mall skate was insane!!!! thanks.
3:37, smooth and precise, sweet mall flow
Skaters paradise, wonderful place 👌
Amazing flow! Its amazing to see you skating, it inspire me alot, keep it up!
That is a great compliment. Thank you.
What a great place to skate, amazing!
I never expected to be able to do a long flow skate inside buildings.
Just imagine the noise the wheels are making on the floor
Suggestion, Two videos:
1- what kind of wheels do you use and how your wheels wear?
2- 10 tips to go from beginner to advanced?
A couple of tips:
Try skating only on your outside edges.
Really thanks for the tips. By the way, my name is Jorge, sorry for not mention that.
My roller blades have one row of wheeles on each blade and there are 4 wheeles on each row
I keep freaking out like he's gonna hit the glass doors and break them haha
Oh the floor so smooth, so satisfying
So satisfying!
OmG that was amazing I really hope can do that but in my country I will be arrested just to enter in the mall whit skates
I am surprised I wasn't arrested. I hope the police do see this video.
lol
Wait really not even step inside?
If it was here in my country, we will be shot 1st then arrested (if we survive).
And that's all even before stepping a foot inside mall grounds, including the area outside the mall.
It was so crazy and safe at the same time!!! is an amazing combination!!!))) obviously, you are a professional!!!!
Shaun Unwin: ¡El Mago del Patín! :D greetings from Colombia
Saludos 🙏
Props to Shaun.
Big props to the camera op. Keeping up while keeping things framed up on that stabilizer seems like a lot of work.
Hello Shaun, yay you're skating again! very pleasurable ride!! great camera, beats the selfie stick anyday!look at the views around, this is really awesome
It has been a long winter but skating has begun. I actually skated outside today.
I'm glad you are enjoying the weather outside! Let more action continue. We asians wish we can skate in the aircond indoors like that.
Haha! Come to Calgary.
I’ve always wanted to board or skate in a big empty building like this - so cool!!
I hope I have that, if I only have money I will buy that
Greetings from Philippines
That is sooooooo coooool
Nice skate session, would love to do a run with you sometime... Been skating 27 years. Keep going, as will I.
Ok, so I get how its not that great that you ended up in a mall, but I really like it when you skate indoors in general. Its extra fluid and with the walls and railings on either side at all times just give it a much different feel. Good job :)
I'm 36 and just bought some new blades ,haven't skated in 26 years but I'm getting the hang of it again ,damn its addicting and a great workout !
Never thought in my years of breathing that skating in a mall would be this oddly satisfying to watch.
I feel like this is what the mall is good for. Now I actually want to go to the mall 😂
This is one of the first videos i watched that made me buy my first pair of skates!!
Which mall on earth is so huge bro?
Where is this?
The actual mall starts at 3:11 and is called "Core Shopping". Everything else are just skyways connecting a bunch of different buildings in downtown Calgary, Canada. The skyways are called the +15 network
Bruh its small As fuck If you went to dubai there is mall Called Dubai mall its 40 time bigger then this and if you went to saudia arabia There is a mall os 30 time bigger then this
My anxiety was so high watching this. But the way camera man kept up the whole time 👏👏👏👏👏
I am always amazed by the camera work. I am the skater and edit the videos.
I just got some blades for christmas and I love it I've progressesd so much allready and I want to keep doing it and I just found your channel and I'm very impressed with your skills one day I would like to be at your skill level one day.
Vast building 🤔 majestically skated 👏👏👏.
Its pure enjoyment! Thank you!
My pleasure.
Waaaooo!! This is great!! I did something like this in some malls in Leganés because of the rain, until the security told me that I can't.
...And sometimes I come back to skate in the parking between the cars but I take care, jeje. Maybe I am old for this? 41. I think never!! :-p
The skating is badass but the mall is even more impressive.
I'm Brazilian and your videos have inspired me to want to be as good as you are
You can do it! 🇧🇷
I want to know what you did to the mall to get it so deserted. Also, my brain kept on trying to tell me what the different surfaces would feel like through my skates, which is odd... unless I did skate through malls and parts of malls as a child.
Wow, you just make it look so effortless....
Great compliment. Thank you.
Looks to much fun, need to get myself a mall
OMG shaun! You jus made the wait for your skate videos feels even longer now! Thanks.....
Haha! Thank you my friend.
That must feel so amazing and smooth! Gotta love pedways!
That was flowtastic ! Yeah buddy !
This never gets old...
Made my day! Inspirational.
I love your skating skills. U r the best.👌
Thanks brother.
Another amazing flow brotha! Gave me goosebumps! Soo smooth👍👍😀
Ha! We used to roller skate at Woodfield Mall in Schaumburg, Illinois. Was thrown out so many times as a teen. .
Jet Set Evalution looking dope
Thats was awesome. You make it look so easy!
Hey, can you have a camera man film the camera man in one of these videos. I have to see how it's done.
unbelievable!!! Reminds me of the contactless credit/debit card adds they ran here in the UK on network TV a few years back where a man on a never-ending waterslide bought all his stuff on the way down.... but Shaun, you forgot to collect your items on the way through! ====EPIC===
How big is this mall...its like 20 times bigger than the biggest ive ever seen
ugh the smoothness of the floors must be so nice to skate on
0:31 my man just jumped with roller blades
That was an awesome flow!! Love your channel!
Thanks brother!
On ice you need a lot of balance and precision just because of the lack of friction, inline skates have so much traction and you can get away with alot of tricky moves
Level 3? More like “Level holy f*#k my brain melted to how awesome that was!” Very jealous you got to ride around there without security on your tail. I work in the underground in downtown Toronto, which is very similar to that area. Pinto Pony shredded the place in a couple vids and since watching those I’ve really wanted to do the same. There are smooth floors, ramps, stairs and a ton of rails and odd ledges. On top of that, they connect to the Eaton centre. Oh to dream of giving that area a roll.
I went skating outside today and everything felt so rough compared to the smooth tiles.
I grew up in Downtown Toronto...anyway...when blading was super big in the mid 90's we used to do a night skate in downtown Toronto. It was a blast. One time we did take a chance and enter the Eaton Center at one end and skate at blazing speeds to the other end. It was magical. The smooth floors were heavenly. Even a few stairs to jump. We never got caught. We were in and out before security even noticed. lol
Also in Toronto on Yonge st north of Eglinton there is a Sporting Life store...well back in the 90's there was a small rollerblading shop across the street called Ready To Roll. It was great and the organized a skate night in the winter months for us to skate on the 5 level of the Sky Dome. It was a smooth oval surface on the concession area. It was a blast. There was also a gym in the Dome that allowed you to jog around the same floor. I wonder if it's still there and if they would let you skate?
Take care. I'm living in Taiwan now and still skating at 61 and having a blast.
I have some serious ASMR type of synethesia nostaglia weird trippy thing going on in my brain that FEELS the butter like smooth tiles you are going over and I am SOOOO JEALOUS.
Missing your videos here from Tampa Florida.
If you come to Florida you have a HQ. hehehehehe. I will be back to skating soon. I hope I remember something. Hehehehehr
Smmmmoooottttthhhh!!!! 👏
Great stuff.......got me Subbed 👍🤛🥰
Super cool.
Are these special roller blades or do they just have larger wheels?
That was beautiful skating brooo. Music fits...
+HansumRob100 Thanks Rob
1:53 was pretty slick
yo that late-ish 180 was sick 1:12
0:44 hmmm makes me think of mirror's edge. The first one.
Ahah oh man this is epic. Can't believe you pulled this off aha I mean I didn't see any "no rollerblading. Surprised you didn't 180 when you popped into the main mall aha.
dam! your videos are becoming the best!
Holy shit that was good!!!
Well that's real bomb how you manage that amazing
RESPECT FOR THE CAMERAMAN
That hall you went through I want that hall so I can go on my roller skates and do that
The double heel wheely was sick. Your feet were parallel and in no scissor. This can easily cause falling over backwards - the worst case scenario of an inline skater. I will try this move next time.
the first background song is so nice but is not listed in the description
Exhilarating to watch!
Shawn, you can skate in malls there? We were always kicked out of malls in and around Toronto.
I’ve always wanted roller skates but after watching this I want roller blades but idk which is better to start with.*sigh*
That was bad ass-funky...
wow,that's one awesome building
Hey! This video is pretty cool!!! I don’t know how you manage to skate inside public closed places as that facilities! Anyway I don’t care, you’re great!and your camera guy as well!
i like how they call it "happiness' ;'D
Amazing bro your style is very very good
