I Was a Cloud Premier, Boise Idaho

The time has come for yet another sick blade flick to be released and this one comes out of Boise Idaho. This will be Erik Bills second release and its going to feature a great list of rollerbladers frrom Idaho and of course Utah. I filmed a few clips that might be in the video so make sure to come out to Boise Idaho December 4th to support Idaho and Utah rollerblading. I can't remember all the names of the people from Idaho that have sections but as far as Utah goes it will have Tad Tregeagle,Chris Oplin,Cameron Card, and a few others, oh and Erik Bailey will have a section so that should be reason enough to get your self a copy.

Elder E-Rocks Grom Jam

Last saturday was Elder E-Rocks grom jam and if there was a good day to pick to have a comp it would have been that day. This was my first day living in Salt Lake City and even I was skeptical the grom session would even happen. As I walked out to see what the forecast looked like I was in disbelief that the snow was already here. But knowing how hardcore the salt lake locals are I was sure this was just a minor bump in the road. Billy "beast master" Anderson and Erik Neilson built a box the night before as a warm up spot but as the weather showed us that skating any street was not a possibility it ended up being the "Spot".
There wasn't the biggest turnout with the weather being so crappy but everyone who did show up was in high hopes of winning that prize money. Finally after an hour of warming up and me complaining about getting the comp started Erik finally got things together and began the comp. Just so everyone knows we ended up putting the box underneath a bridge so the snow was in no way affecting our skating but holy crap it was cold.
Some of the people that stuck out the most in my mind were Jeff Stanger with his ill jew steeze,Tj Tregeagle,Chris Oplin,Kaycee Landsaw and of course the flyin Hawaiian Chris Napolean. Everyone threw down some awesome tricks but in the end Tj Tregeagle ended up taking the cash and the twelve pack of diet coke donated by awesome rollerblader groupie Tiffany Jackson.
Unfortunately E-Rock couldn't make it to the after party with him being mormon and all, but man oh man was it a hoot. I can't wait for next year!!! Photos provided by Billy Anderson

Hey Everyone I Moved Finally!!!

In case everyone doesn't know I now am telling you now that I finally made the move up to Salt Lake City. Its not far from where I call home but this place is nothing short of amazing. When it comes down to it there's just so much more going on here when it comes to blading,shows,night life and even the ladies.I can't wait to get settled here and I hope everyone in St.George comes up and visits me cause that would be awesome, hell even if your from another state feel free to hit me up. My video is still in progress even though I moved up here and I think with living up here it will do nothing but help me out with being more creative with my upcoming release. Anyways much love to everyone in St.George I will always call it home.

Black People are good at everything!!!

Even though I moved from good ol' St.George, it doesn't mean the new generation of roller bladers still wont be killing it down there. This is David Martin's first edit of him shredding St.George skate park and frankly he has progressed so much more than I would have even thought for the short time he has been skating. But then again he's black and black people are good at everything. This was filmed and edited by Michigan native Jake Britton so make sure to give him some props if you know him. Good job David and congrats on your first edit, you are now official!!!

"Extra Sweet Edit" By Jake Britton

I guess lately Jake has been wanting to edit so he put together this left over footage from our trip to SLC with Michigan native Matt Hood Hood. It features me so it must be epic haha.

Elder E-Rock Grom Jam in Salt Lake City

It looks like Erik Nilsson is at that time in his life where he feels like going on a mission is going to do him good. I heard that he is really going cause he wants to hook up with this girl and she wont let him touch her until he does his mission first so thats why he is going to be leaving us for two years. What is there to say about E-Rock except that I always thought of him as Chris Farley's retarded little brother. The one thing I always seem to forget about Erik is that he is actually pretty good on the blades and this he proved to me during the last two trips to California and Las Vegas. Im sure Salt Lake and surrounding areas wont be the same without this kids crazy antics. I've only known Erik for a little while and already I feel like he is someone Im going to miss a whole lot during the blade sessions.

Any ways to sum this all up and end this I just want to make sure that I let everyone know that there will be a farewell session/blade comp in his memory. I know this is going to be nothing but a shit ton of fun. So be there or be square!!!

The comp is on Saturday,November 14,2009 from 12:00pm to 6:00pm @ Fairmont Skatepark

Edit featuring E-Rock and Friends

WRS Finals in Las Vegas

Let me just state that when it comes to Vegas theres really not much to say except that its always a party there and this last weekend was no different. Every big name professional was in town im sure not only to skate in one of the years biggest competition but to also have nothing but a good time in while in the city of sin. I don't know who was in charge of putting the competition on Halloween but I feel as if maybe this deterred alot of people from showing up to competition to spectate. Luckily the skaters who were competing did not dissapoint, everyone skated very hard in the semi-finals and finals all throughout the night.

People like Brian Aragon and Alex Broskow pulled out some technical stunts. But yet again the french were in the house to show us american whats up yet again just as they did in california. It was not only the french who came out though, there were also some big names from Australia too such as Rian Arnold who showed us that dressing like a fag can make you skate really good(only joking...sort of) but the one who does nothing but amaze me was of course up and comer/future of rollerblading/asshole was CJ Wellsmore who personally is gonna be giving chris haffey a run for his money pretty soon. There was of course legend Brian Shima who skated really well against his own team haha he killed it and I will tell you being a fan for such a long time it really inspired me to make sure that I just need to have fun skating and not care about anything else.

Jerf Stockwell was there and he is for some reason always unappreciated even though he deserved to win. Watching him gave me goosebumps throughout the night because I know how technical he can be and this night was no different. I feel the results should have been a little different with Stockwell taking first,Cj in second,Brian in third but what does my opinion matter. Sucks Chris haffey ended up injured for the night but before that he was straight up killing it. Then of course at the end of the night there was some partying and some more skating and more partying and thats all I pretty much look forward to in the city of sin.

Sorry this was so long but words can't describe how epic this trip was.

This was the only pic taken during our day skating in Las Vegas this pool was to much fun to skate but a beast at that. TJ always surprises me with stuff like this

Stay Golden Productions goes to AIL Championships

I know its been a few days since the AIL finals but really when it comes down to it I want to make sure that whatever I write about AIL Finals was something that I truly mean. On October 23rd was the AIL championships and this was my third year in a row going to Woodward west to see the best of the best compete.

Unfortunately it was changed up this year and so there was no professional contest that I do indeed look forward to every year, instead it was turned into a "Demo" which I felt made the feel of all the pro's skating not as exciting. I will have to admit that either way there was some awesome stuff that went down. Especially from french powerhouse Stephan Alfano who did nothing but show the americans that the french simply don't care what or might happen to their body. Really nothing that memorable really went down except for Erik Bailey's sick true fish up on the curved box which proved that the american are not out just yet.

But in the end Stephan Alfano proved to everyone he was going for broke when he disastered 450 true topsoul up on the huge quarter. Personally I think the AIL needs to bring back the pro contest cause I feel like it did nothing but make everyone a little upset with the turn out of the big names in the demo due to everyone partying so much the night before. Still was a lot of fun either way and I was able to see some good friends and even made a bunch of new ones too. One of the best things of AIL weekend was perhaps that a lot of good homies such as Harbor Bickmore,TJ Tregeale,and emo zach all turned AIL pro. So big ups to them and I hope next year is better for sure. Here are some pictures from AIL courtesy of Scott Moffatt.
