Had an awesome time and everyone killed it. It was like chaos filming this because there were just so many dope tricks going down at once. Congrats to Julian Bah for taking the comp. Thanks to everyone involved for putting this together and making it such a great time!

Thank you to everyone who came out to Bladesgiving 7 and all of our wonderful sponsors!! This year was such a high level of skating it made judging it a nightmare, every one of our contestants put their heart into their heats and it was such a good show. A million thank you's to Frankie Terranova for keeping this thing going year after year, thank you to Cindi at drop in for letting us use this amazing facility and being such a generous host. Thank you to Ryan Buck Strauss for killing it despite twisting your knee silly on one of the first tricks. Buck helped get all of the awesome sponsors we had this year also and was a huge help organizing the prize packs. Thanks for all the out of towners who made the trek down here just for a Saturday afternoon, really means a lot people are willing to hop flights, drive 10+ hours and still giving it their all. Thank you to Long Tonthat for the support and for bringing the mobile shop all the way down to south fl just for the day! You are an amazing human being and rollerblading is very lucky to have such a passionate and caring dude involved. I love you all, thanks for making BG7 happen!

Thank you to everyone who came out to Bladesgiving 7. It was a perfect day in Boca Raton. Again, we had skaters come from all over the country and the world just to blade here and see what BG was all about. Thanks to @robbiesquire for helping plan the event. @jahashtag and @jamesfinley for helping on the mic and to my judges @stylepointsrob @blakekelly_bk. Thank you to Cindy at @dropincomplex for having us back another year. Huge tanks to Aaron DeYoe for the ‘Blader Things’ design. Congrats to Julian Bah for taking home the cup. Until next year at bg8.
