The ONE Blade Awards are about bringing recognition to stand out people, events, and brands in blading that elevate themselves and enrich our community. They are about showcasing the best (as determined by the most democratic process available!) and providing a benchmark for excellence towards which we can all strive.
To mark the occasion of Jeff Dalnas winning Blader of the Year in 2024 we devised a new and novel way to bring our mission to life: A billboard in New York City’s Time Square.
Arguably one of the busiest and most trafficked locations in the United States, it’s the perfect high profile platform to showcase blading and give Jeff a huge high five for his accomplishment.
Of course we couldn’t do it alone, so these great creators deserve credit for their contribution. Thanks to you all! And congrats again to Jeff, Chihiro, Jimmy, and the rest of the 2024 ONE Blade Awards winners.
See you again soon!
