The new Rolling Revival just came out, and this time Adrian is back on the program, after missing the last couple of episodes because of work related conflicts. This episode has Joe Navran and Davee Blair from Franco Shade on the program, so be sure to check it out HERE. Remember, if you haven’t subscribed to their Itunes feed, do it, because it will make your life a lot easier, and you will be sure to catch every episode no matter what.

This spot light is of Dan Doidge, a good friend I have made through Canadian Roll’s good deeds. I told him I would like to showcase new talent on the site that not a lot of people see, and he sent me some pictures to put up. Dan is completely dedicated to rolling and a good guy, I’m glad the first underground spotlight went to him.
**I take no credit for the photos.**

You are now officially able to download the video Not A Lifeboat, a film by Billy Kostka & Luke Bender. It is a full rolling film, and it is completely free, so it is automatically amazing. Check out Billy’s website to download the video HERE. I personally want to thank Billy and Luke for doing this for the rolling community, to put so much work into a project then offer it for free is really a great thing to do.
**Lastly, when you download this video Billy and Luke include a text file which states…***
