Platform

Jon Lee is one of the most outspoken people in the UK blading scene, so it was inevitable he would be a guest on Platform. A prolific filmer, he has created multiple full-length videos over the years and recently he has been responsible for arguably the best sections Alex Burston, Leon Humphries, James Bower and Sam Crofts have produced to date.

Jon talks about his incredibly productive streak over the past several years, how he feels filmers are treated in the industry, his thoughts on skate shops, sponsorship and much more. He also reveals some crazy stories from growing up skating the streets of London.

Sam Crofts has just released one of his best sections to date, an epic seven minutes plus of promo for his second Aeon pro skate from USD, so it seemed like the right time to catch up.

He talks about some of the highlights from his latest part, the royalties he receives on pro skates and pro wheels, injuries, inspirations, where he got the nickname X Games from, and shows us prototypes of unreleased products from Undercover Wheels and what could have been his first USD Aeon pro skate, if he didn't hate the colour, and much more.

So excited to have Billy O'Neill on Platform. I fell in love with his skating in the Razors team video Ego and since then he has continued to amaze me in every section since. The Staten Island warrior has battled through several serious injuries, including being hit by three separate cars, and he always come back to deliver the goods. We talk about his exceptional career that involved going pro for USD and Mindgame, battling Brian Aragon while filming for Ego, the highs and lows of pro blading, growing up in New York, the controversial Jumpstreet episode with Josh Petty, gaining acceptance from his idols, some of his most memorable tricks, filming for the new Videogroove and so much more.

Easily the best of the new generation of current skaters to emerge from Scotland and arguably one of the most interesting skaters in the world at the moment, Dominic Bruce personifies an exciting future for the sport. He is a fierce competitor who is never far from the podium and, as David Sizemore's 5th Floor highlights, he is an exceptionally creative street skater with an enormous talent to back up his wildly imaginative ideas. If he keeps going on his current trajectory, he promises to take what is possible on skates into unchartered territory.

Dom talks about his astounding section in 5th Floor, his admiration for David Sizemore and his ability to capture a side of his skating he believes no-one else has so far, why he has chosen to call Copenhagen home, his numerous adventures with the Haitian crew, his thoughts on sponsorship and the industry, and much more. I predicted this episode was going to be full of wit, charm and just hint of cheekiness, and Dom did not disappoint. What many people may not know about him is that he is also incredibly thoughtful, reflective and not afraid to criticise himself, making a conscious drive for self improvement. Wherever his life takes him, it's guaranteed to be a hell of an adventure.

Ricardo Lino is living the dream - he has managed to make a career out of skating and he's done it on his own terms. The former pro skater is currently working for Micro Skates and has built up a massive audience with his YouTube Channel, which is bringing in a decent income each month. He also runs two skate shops. As a result, he has been able to employ three people and support countless others. I can personally vouch for the fact that Ricardo wants everyone in blading to succeed because he has helped me out on more than one occasion.   

In this episode, Ricardo talks about why he returned to skating, how he grew his channel, criticism he has faced along the way, why he is building his own skatepark, what the future holds for Micro Skates, why it's important to grow skating for everyone and not just himself, and much more. This is our longest episode yet, so if you wanna watch two bald, bearded guys deep dive into geeky aspects of blading, you are in luck!
