Canadian Roll News # 207

Collin White, from the Mobb crew, recently put up another one of his “Not So Weekly” edits. This time around we see some great skating, mixed with the fun aspect of rollerblading. It is definitely a relaxed edit, and I enjoyed watching it. The edit is below, but be sure to check out the Mobb website.

More Info on NIMH Skates.

If you check out NIMH’s myspace, HERE, you will notice a lot of new information has been posted. A video of Shima visiting the NIMH factory, which shows the production of the skate and also shima testing it. An interested point about the video, I believe Shima also shows the new Ground Control frame along with the skate, but I could be wrong.

Also, a few new pictures of the boot have been posted

and Last but not least, pictures of the real skate will be posted soon, as indicated on their blog entry, which can be read below, or you can go to the webpage HERE.

Shima back from China with final NIMH skates

Shima has come back from the Nimh Factory in China with a suitcase full of Nimh Skates. Expect final photos of the skates as well an edit of Shima’s trip to the factory within the next few days. Also if you will be at the AIL comp at Woodward you can see Shima skating them. Jon Elliott will be in attendance walking around with a pair of skates for you to check out.

Richie Eisler Interview on Be-Mag.

Be-Mag recently did an interview with Richie Eisler and it was posted on the front page of their website. The interview is really good and covers a lot of bases, such as Richie getting his next pro-wheels from Undercover wheels and doing a Sweet Sixteen Mizou (every variation of a Mizou) edit soon, him being asked to be the team manager for Undercover wheels, his views on the industry, his education and experiences, and he talks about the Canadian rolling scene. Those are just some of the topics. Overall, great interview, and Richie kicks ass, so check it out HERE.

Thursday Night Skate.

 A.J DeLong just posted up the 22nd edition of Thursday Night Skate. This edition brings us to Iceland skate park in Mississauga, Ontario for the session that went down September 27th. The edit itself is really laid back, I like the feel of it. Be sure to go by Bladr, where this video was originally taken from.

Frated Info.

Recently, I talked about a German DVD called Frated and how I thought the trailer looked amazing, and stated if anyone had any information on it I would like them to E-mail me. If you don’t remember check this link out and go see the trailer. Luckily, I received an E-mail from Mark Stamer (skater and one of the editors of Frated) giving me information about the DVD.

Here is what I know so far, the DVD has a website, http://www.frated-dvd.com/people.htm, there are high quality downloadable trailers on Be-Mag, which can be downloaded HERE and HERE. The Video is shot completely in high definition. Unfortunately, the DVD is only available in European shops (Grindhouse, Ignition, Locoskates). The whole video deals with friendship and bringing together rollers from Denmark and North Germany, and from the trailers I have seen, it has that old school skate video feel, where it was more about the fun you were having then who could kill themselves first, luckily the video also has people dropping crazy hammers.

Hopefully I will be able to get my hands on this video so I will be able to review it, I highly suggest people try to get this DVD as well, it looks really interesting.
