From Afternoon Chaos to Midnight Calm | Rollerblading in NYC

In August of 2023, my friend ‪@TerryB‬ and I were filming for a project we worked on together called Calculated Risk — Here is the link if you want to check it out    • Calculated Risk | Urban Skating New York City  

Terry was shooting with a custom-built rig he designed himself — it captures angles and motion you honestly won’t see anywhere else. I put in some BTS clips so that you can see how we created this, shoutout to Dale for the BTS clips.

This footage is from one day where we skated through hectic rush hour traffic, weaving through the city’s chaos, a surprise cameo from Eddie. We then found ourselves cruising through NYC late into the night — calm, quiet, and completely free.

There’s just something about gliding through the city after dark — especially on skates — that feels so free.

Hope you enjoy the ride.
