He is a businessman and an athlete. He never stops moving forward in either direction.
Chicago
The owners of The Rink on 87th are now the new owners of Glenwood Roller Rink. That was a smart move to make. Whenever the doors to a new facility open, the entire city’s customer pattern is affected.
The session attendance could plummet. JBSKATE nights at The Rink saw a rise in customer volume as a direct result of Glenwood’s closing. The community has a relationship with the owners and they are present. So, that aline could have an effect on the community and skaters may begin to start skating more.
Doubters may begin to realize that skating is not dead and nor will it ever die. The regulars in the skate community have a natural resilience to negative forces getting in the way of our skating. One night we skated with DJ BC during a whole tornado. We skate on -10 degree nights and we found a way during the COVID lockdown.

I learned how to JBSKATE by learning routines. I spent the most time with Nick. At the very beginning, I learned some of my first tricks from watching Eldon at Glenwood. There were a couple sessions where I got some tips from Smooth Goddess, which I have always remembered. Then, later on I learned from Dre and Larry. I spent a lot of sessions polishing movement with Dre.

I currently wear the Rieddel OG 72. The same wheels are still attached, I use the wheels that came with the skate.
