I like what you said about street skating Brian: \Blading is about skating the world around you as it is, not creating a pretty one where you can hang out with your friends and hit on the skater skanks and MILFs (although that is fun).\

But seriously though, don’t ya’ll hit on milfs when you are out street skating?

Also, the idea that a skatepark is pristine compared to street is true enough. But there is something to be said about how hard it is to skate those parks when they are full of boss-hog sharks zooming around.

cheers, love your writing Brian.

Zac,

IMYTA was an international street competition started in 2000. Basically, the guys would play a huge game of S-K-A-T-E trying to one-up each other at some of the most famous street spots in the world.

If you need a quick history lesson and you have Netflix, you can rent three IMYTA discs from them. Weird, I know, but they’re there: http://www.netflix.com/WiSearch?oq=&v1=IMYTA&search_submit=

Otherwise, there’s good old YouTube. Just search “IMYTA”

I have heard about IMYTA it sounds great. Agreed bring it back, even though i dont know what it is. When i first checked out the WRS website it seemed like a tv show or like a game. Its like you have to get a certain amount of points to qualify for the finals then the finals are judged on who is best and all that stuff. I could see a Japanese cartoon about the WRS lol. Follows the story of a new blader just turned pro and with the help of his friends he has to win the WRS lol. That would make a great kids cartoon get lots of kids into agressive rollerblading

I dont even know if im joking about that idea???

Definitely need more street comps. Bring IMYTA back! I know kids who don’t even know what those 5 letters mean or represent. We need to show the public how massive our culture is on the streets as well as in the parks!
