We wanted to take a moment and personally congratulate Sven for the last 25 years he’s graced us on skates. He’s always a force to watch. Powerful, calm, collected, and explosive all rolled into one. He’s made so many solid projects and parts for the last 2.5 decades, it’s been a real honor getting to grow up in a world he helped shape. You really are a professional athlete, a professional behind the lens, and a professional inline skater. Cheers man. Here’s to hopefully 25 more! - Travis

“For the past four decades Rollerblade® has collaborated with the best athletes and skaters in the game. It all started in 1980 with numerous, groundbreaking skates that set the standard for inline skating. Rollerblade® has always pushed the product to new heights, just like the athletes did with their achievements and passion for the sport. One of Rollerblade®’s all-time greatest athletes is Sven Boekhorst. This year he is celebrating his 25th year working with Rollerblade®. He has been around for the Tarmac CE, DIRK, the TRS Acces, the Solo Estillo, the current New Jack Team skates and many more. Sven skated them and did mind blowing tricks. Let’s take a minute to look back at some of the amazing things Sven has done with Rollerblade®.” - Rollerblade
