Music plays a big part in providing the right vibe while rollerblading as well as our personal lives when we want to escape the problems of the world we’re all living in, so I’m adding a Real Hip-Hop category to hopefully put my friends and new followers onto some good music besides the garbage this is constantly on radio rotation…CHXXRS Read more »
I got caught off guard with this one but it shows the beauty of passing down the torch to the new generation of bladers which in this case is my son Brian. In the new Mal Ashby edit entitled “Air To The Montage” Gregory Preston put a little something together for Malik since he is now enrolled in the Army and won’t have that much time to blade for awhile. I would like to thank Malik for stepping up and defending our country. Much love and respect for life my brother…CHXXRS!
AIR TO THE MONTAGE by Gregory Preston
This morning I found out that NYC Legend Kanuf Nagi went on to be with the Lord. It is one of those instances where you wish you had more time with that person. I bumped into him here and there and it was always great catching up while reminiscing on good times past. Kanuf was a huge influence on me when I first started blading. I used to only skate street but seeing him kill the ramps at Mullaly’s was inspiring. He definitely helped bring big air with style to NYC blading. And off of skates he was a caring and funny person. One of my favorite memories of Kanuf was when I worked at Chelsea Piers Skatepark and Kanuf rolled through with fresh skates with a big smile on his face since he started blading again after a hiatus. Included above is his clips in the classic “No Limits”. Kanuf’s clips start at 1:47.
Legends Never Die!
Just decided to add a new category to ShutupandSKATE so I’ll be the initial guinea pig to test drive it. Enjoy!
