Witnessing the unexpected is one of the most exciting aspects of attending any blade event, and there may be no better showing of the upcoming talent blading has to offer than at the Winterclash Amateur contest. Things were no different in 2020, as strong bladers like Ren Fujiwara, Michael Müller, Jan Fehlmann, Ilia Savosin, Zack Pollak, and Amateur Champ Sven Ischen showed off how their skills could be applied to the Area 51 street course. Captured by Dean Bradley, this photo set showcases a few of the standout tricks that we caught while these “future prospects” showed the judges — and the world — what they could do.
