One of the first elements of Issue #27 to come into focus was a feature on Sam Crofts. Early on, Sam Cooper said he wanted to shoot with him, so that got locked in and the two got to work. In fact, there’s been a stream of impressive UK coverage in recent issues thanks to Cooper and his camera, and this outing delivered the goods once again...

CJ is a ball of raw energy that infects everyone around him with enthusiasm. We wanted to capture that in the magazine for a while, and it finally happened in 2013 when CJ teamed up with photographer Hayden Golder to shoot a profile in Sydney that properly captured the breadth of CJ’s capabilities...

Way back in 2015 we sent photographer Corey Oringderff to Cleveland in hopes of getting a feature on Travis Rhodes for Issue #22. And despite an injury that prevented Travis from getting all the tricks he had planned, with the assistance of the BladeCLE crew Corey came back with images like these that made it into print...

On a hot afternoon last summer Texas-based photographer Gino Gotelli met up with bladers John Sullivan and Aarin Gates to shoot photos for Issue #27. When we saw the day's images--with Aarin on the cam and their youngster in the stroller--we asked Gino to write up a short article about what it's like skating with a family...

Issue #27 features photos from first time French contributing photographer Clément Barbaza, providing a fresh perspective from the streets of Paris and other cities. Clément landed three photos in the Picks gallery, but unfortunately we had too much content and not enough space to run everything he sent...

One of the more dynamic and unpredictable new bladers to materialize on the international scene, when Lauric Picard visited San Diego back in November 2022 we were excited to link him up with photographer Steve Steinmetz. Over a few days Steve was able to show Lauric and his friend Samuel Obst around town to spots where they both landed a couple tricks for the camera...

The newest issue of ONE is shipping now and features an incredible cover shot by Sam Cooper of USD and Undercover Pro Sam Crofts, who has an insightful feature interview handled by James Bower and Matthew Stewart. Plus there's coverage of the Mesmer Team in L.A., Julien Cudot, Cameron Talbott, Martin Gade, Young Juise Money, Lauric Picard, Seoul Skaters, and much more...

Way back in 2015 we were working on the sixth issue of ONE Digital, our online-only magazine, when suddenly, for reasons we can’t quite remember today, we stopped. It was never finished and all the content that had been submitted and planned got shelved. Bummer! But yesterday’s lost content is today’s treasure, and amongst the mothballed photos were these great snaps of Dustin Jamieson...

Events are part of the blading community's life blood, as they serve the important role of bringing skaters together. And that was the case recently in Seattle as the regional event Beat The Chump returned for its sixth outing. But what makes this year's installment special isn't just that PacWest bladers got together for a session, but that BTC has become a multi-generational contest, where 2nd generation bladers got to shred in front of their blader parents...

Winterclash 2024 went off as always. Once shrouded in "secrecy" until edits and posts started popping up, today the entire event is live-streamed officially and broadcast in real time unofficially by nearly 1,000 phone-wielding blade paparazzi from every conceivable angle. With that in mind, we thought a different approach was in order, so for a fresh perspective we...
