_Nick Wood and Blue Edition OS4s

Oh Nick Wood, you beautiful, bonkers human being. Come visit Toronto again next summer! I can’t help think its such a waste of a very pretty skate, though.

_Casualty Clothing 2010-11

Our friends in New York Joey G. and Brendan R. were nice enough to send RollToronto a package of goodies a few weeks ago for an anticipated video project we’re working on.

For those of you who have been living under a rock for the past 5 years, Casualty Clothing hand prints and independently distributes some amazing gear for the rolling community. Here are some images of some of the Fall collection of shirts you’ll see.

You can check out the full line, including drink cozies, cooler bags, hoodies and more at your favourite online skate shop, or buy directly from their web shop at:

A Big thanks to Casualty Clothing for supporting blading in Toronto.

_Kevin’s Blade Stash – Part 1.

So for those who don’t know, I had an unfortunate accident back in November,  tearing the ACL in my right knee to shreds, leaving me unable to blade until this coming September.  Balls.

In the mean time, I’ve been pulling out some old gems from the Dekalzshop days and started messing with different setups.

I’m using a pair of Original New Old Stock (NOS) black size 7 Albert Hooi UFS throne shells as the base, and building around it with various cuffs, liners, laces, soul kids and frames/wheels.

Here’s the list of goodies I have so far:

  • NOS – Red 2 piece souls
  • NOS – Abdiel Colberg souls (Grey rear, black front)
  • NOS – Black 2 piece souls
  • NOS – White Diamond Hooi 3 piece souls with white backslide
  • NOS – Chrome Sagona 3 piece, front and back chrome, black backslide
  • NOS – Black 3 piece (Thank you Tim Adams!)
  • Extra White 3 piece heel plates
  • Kizer Slimline Turquoise  Frames (Thank you Mark Korte and The Conference)
  • Kizer Slimline White Frames
  • Kizer Slimline team Frames
  • White GC Featherlite 1 Frames
  • Jug Precise Liners
  • Sifika Carlos Pianowski 7 Liners

Here are just a few of the setups that I could think of…. post if you want to see something different.

What should I skate? Help me pick. I should have black cuffs and buckles really soon, if that helps you decide.
