Today, I opened the website and I don’t see any roller skating on ESPN. This is exactly the point of my work with JBGODS. We want the same level of recognition. Our sport is just as entertaining. Now, let’s be clear. CNN does not have to create a section for us. I’m just making the point that it does not currently exist.
We are preparing to settle into Germany and UK. The JBGODS experience is a global one for all to have and enjoy.
There is a lot of structure in the skate world. More and more foundations are coming together to make a complete geography for skaters.
Some very specific things are going to happen at JBGODS Headquarters. First, this is the place where staff is managed. Anyone who applies to work with JBGODS will go to Headquarters for their interview.
International Headquarters
We have established Headquarters for JBGODS in Chicago today and we are immediately looking toward an expansion to France. The company will establish international Headquarters in Paris and become a global JBSKATE organization.
Skaters in Paris, it’s time to invest in some quad skates. A new style is on its way to your neighborhood. Imagine the American skate style, JBSKATING, making its way into the quarters of France. Expanding to France is not the hard part. We need to decide if business will be conducted in English or French.

Check out what’s happening with the JBGODS fleet.
Pharaoh is going on a journey and it looks like he’ll take JBGODS across the country and around the world all on his own.
If you like to exceed the speed limit in the city, there is a new speed trap that might encourage you to slow yourself down. There are now tactical speed cameras tracking your speed and they are easy to miss. These new cameras are compact and black so they keep a slimmer, darker profile. They aren’t the large, bulky white ones that we are used to, no. It’s easy to fly right past these ones without noticing them. You don’t get that distant warning with that large, bright flash. That feature is gone now. Be careful!! Slow down in the city. – Pharaoh
Drive Slow Anyway
Everyone is always in a rush. It is not at all necessary to drive at 50 miles per hour through residential streets. You’ll get there, relax. Get used to taking your time. This is how you avoid accidents and tickets. We have enough to pay for already. Don’t let these new speed cameras in Chicago cost you even more money.
Pharaoh is going on a journey and it looks like he’ll take JBGODS across the country and around the world all on his own.
Today the weather on May 24th is cool in the shade and slightly warm in the sun. You will still need a jacket or a pullover. There is no wind but it certainly feels as though the temperatures could drop later and that the wind could pick up a bit. – Pharaoh
We are in the middle of May and I have to turn my heat on again. The weather has certainly been inconsistent. It’s not a terrible thing but some warm weather through the summer months would be nice.
As soon as the sun comes out, we are outside. This dreary, gray weather is so lame. It just drains our energy.
History Of Bad Winters
Chicago has had some really foul winters over the past ten to fifteen years. We got lucky this past year. There was minimal snow to deal with. We barely had to use our salt in the sidewalks.
We had a short period of warm weather and it was great. After only a few days of sunny weather it’s cold again. This isn’t fair.
RedBull responded to showing up to Pharaoh’s freeway stunt. They’ll either provide samples or product sells to the crowd. This is a good deal. We’ll plan the event for about two months away from now so that vendors will have time for preparation. In the meantime, Pharaoh will begin some intense training and communication with the city of Chicago to prepare for this stunt. Stay connected to find out more.
Will Pharaoh be the next JBSKATER to land the axel?? He’s been working on it for so long, yet the results haven’t shown much progress.
Some windy weather followed by a slight tornado warning swept through Chicago and the surrounding areas yesterday. However, the outdoor battles still ensued. JBGODS team skater Yehoshua battled against KenDraco yesterday and took his first competition loss. Yehoshua now has a pro skate record of 0 wins and 1 loss.
Yehoshua did take a loss, and that is ok. His presence alone in the competition only reinforces his nomination for Best New Skater. He’s got about three years of experience as a skater and he is doing quite well. As a JBGOD, the demand is always high for more jumps, more speed and more stunts.
The events of this outdoor battle shall be recorded in history.
It is a tragedy. Assailants shot and killed a man while walking on the sidewalk on Near West Side. According to reports, five men with guns killed him. They got out of a dark colored SUV and fired shots at him. Medical services arrived on the scene and transported the 40 year old victim to Stroger Hospital. Doctors pronounced him dead after arrival. The killing took place on 14th street near the University of Illinois Chicago campus.
People Shot and Killed Regularly
Please do not let the silence fool you, people die on a regular basis in Chicago. It’s a sad reality but it’s true and we should acknowledge this fact. The city is dangerous and there are plenty of people willing to do dangerous things. People get killed or hurt on a regular basis here. Often times the general public doesn’t even hear about it. Keep yourself informed about your area and the trending crimes. This information can keep you out of a bad situation.
Be Vigilant and Be Safe
Criminals often target visitors in the city. They steal cars on a regular basis. Don’t leave your car running. People look for that and they steal cars. This tip is not as grave as the man who was shot and killed on the west side but it’s just as important.
There was a shooting on 63rd that shook up the neighborhood this evening. Someone fired off several shots into a small crowd of people in a parking lot. No one was hurt or killed. For some of us this is common place and for others this is something new and very scary. Immediately after, conversations began. The same conversations that need to be held on a regular basis. What is next? What comes after the conversation? A solution comes next.
Offer A Solution And Be A Part Of It
After all of the talking and deliberating, solutions are necessary for events like this shooting on 63rd. The mistake that we constantly make is pursuing those solutions with inadequate means. A few people can’t do it alone. Only a few people are reached and less than a handful of problems are solved. Then there we are, right back where we started, with the same question. Now what??
The GodKing Pharaoh is the leader of the new school.
The skies are blue but the temperature is quite chilly for this 7th day of May in Chicago. This is technically our summer and we are still getting small bouts of early spring temperatures cooling the air. Don’t let the hue of this dreary day in Chicago damage your mood.
The Chicago Climate
You almost don’t know what to expect from the weather in Chicago. You really have to watch the weather notifications in order to stay ready. As we go into the summer season, the climate is battling against the tornado weather.
A Blue Summer
Hopefully, this dreary day in Chicago will be quickly followed by a beautiful blue summer. We need it already. This past winter was not so bad but we still want that summer heat.
