“FURTHER EVIDENCE THAT ROLLERBLADING IS GROWING!
Local business Back Channel Brewing Company recently teamed up with Rollerblade to produce a limited edition NEPA called Bladerade in honor of Scott Olson, founder of the Rollerblade company. To mark this occasion, they decided to host a skate competition and night session in the parking lot. Although the obstacles were small (a PVC box and a Subrusa rail), the level of competition was pretty intense. Overall, it was a really fun experience and showcased the level of passion and camaraderie alive in our inline skating community. Thank you to Mike Lufholm, Back Channel Brewing, and Summit Creek for sponsoring this event.
Skaters include: Chemi Simiyu, Kenji Yee, Jeph Howard, Shane Mcclay, Chase Linzmeyer, Ryan Johnson, Butch Lehman, Nic Brendan, Mike Lufholm, Jacob Ferge, Will Bean, Jason Hall, and more!
Special thanks to Mike Wilson, Kris Ackerman, and Jacob Ferge for filming. Also thanks to the Minnesota rollerblading community and our loyal followers and supporters! You guys are the BEST!“ - Butch Lehman
