Every year, inline skaters from across the world congregate in scenic Duluth, Minnesota for the Northshore Inline Marathon. This year, Mike Ward (marathon director) and Tracy White (Rollerblade) teamed up to create Skatefest, a weekend long celebration of rollerblading featuring aggressive inline demos, live music, an inline tradeshow, and more, culminating in a skatepark competition to wrap-up the weekend.
Mike and Tracy reached out to us at Roll Minnesota to lead the demos and it was amazing! Over the course of the weekend, thousands of people stopped by to watch some skating and support skating in all of its various forms. Special thanks to all of the sponsors for making this weekend possible and a special thanks to everyone who came out to support rollerblading!
