The Company We Keep is the culmination of 5 years of skating and filming amongst the Colorado skating scene. Featuring Jeff Gonring, Jon Alires, Brett White, Tom Leong, and Nolan Wojciechowski, the film explores the wide variety of skating and scenery offered within the state, alongside the exceptional people that contribute to making it such a strong community. Whether its via attempting a dangerous stunt, learning a new trick, getting outside and playing with friends, or just cruising down a trail on wheels, The Company We Keep invites the viewer to find the reason why they fell in love with skating in the first place, and to go seek out that feeling again.

At 44, I am getting back into skating. Having grown up in Denver, I actually recognize and hit a lot of these places 20-25 years ago. I'd love to get out a roll around at some of these old and new spots again.

I miss seeing blades in NYC so fucking much. I'm 40 still in NYC, hard to find aggressives in a size 12 for a decent price, but if I ever do, I will be back on the fucking streets. I used to get mad flak in the 90's for blading here, but I still did it anyway. Harold Hunter was the only dude who ever defended me and was cool with me and I miss him every day and miss seeing him on the streets.

I still remember Evol when Jeff Stanger, Chris Olpin, and I think George Veasy were SLC 3. Funny Spira was in Evol as well. The two Jeremy's Soderberg and Spira have become legends since that era. It's wild thinking back that was over 10 years ago when I was getting back on the boots after a 10 year break. Felt like starting all over with all the stuff going on then.

I haven’t watched any blading films in ages. Crazy how rollerblades are so heavily setup for grinding these days. My old set of Rollerblades (circa 1993) were like half the size. Love to go get back into it. So much fun.

There’s a wide variety of options today for boots/setups. We definitely are a little obsessed with grinding though haha!

@@brettwhite3 That’s cos it’s so much fun. I was always way more into skating round the streets finding shit to grind and jump off rather then down to a park. Not that parks aren’t awesome too but something freeing about urban skating.

Great Job Brett! Colorado has always been rolling their own scene for quite awhile really, Denver in particular has carried the torch.Some of My favorite memories are being allowed in rolling (I was 48 yrs at the time , so roll was about the extent for me) with my son, nephew, Spira, The Prince, Jeremy Gallagoes, Luke bender, Eli Davis a host of others as they made their way through neighbor hood comps, and other friendly underground contests. Then there is The Great Colorado Road trip! Thanks to rollers like you all, I worked at both Woodward West and East, made it to several IMYTA's and volunteered , and had my own crazy skate road trip in the infamous Skull Car, back in the days of Daily Bread!! thanks for the memories

@brettwhite3 Жыл бұрын

That’s awesome! I don’t know that I have too much advice other than figure out what your vision is and stick to it. A lot of my filming was aimless, and I struggled to pull it together into a cohesive film at the end as a result. Who knows if you’ll have that same problem though. My general advice is to organize your clips, edit while you film, and always remember to have fun with it!

@brettwhite3 10 ай бұрын

Hey! There used to be a skate shop where we tried them on before we bought, but that shop has since closed its doors. You can give Denver Skates in Arvada a call, but they are quad focused and likely don’t have much of their inline inventory in stock anymore. Beyond that, what size are you looking for? I have a new pair of size 8-9 shells I need to get rid of. You can also ask around in the TNR Facebook page or check blade trade outpost on Facebook. Otherwise, gotta buy online in multiple sizes and return the one that fits worse… I use intuition skate shop primarily, but there are lots of good shop owners who can help you over the phone

@danviv64 Ай бұрын

What helmets would you recommend? I just started getting back into skating here in Lakewood but I'd also like to not kill myself lol.

@brettwhite3 Ай бұрын

Whatever helmet FITS and that you actually WANT to wear! There are different certifications and what-not, and I’m not too educated on all of them to be honest. The dual-certified MIPS by triple8 looks like a good option for a lot of protection, but I couldn’t find a size that fit me well enough. I personally have an ennui elite helmet right now. I used to have a POC crane. Both have worked well for me. Try on a few and pick your favorite!

@Apollothaprophet Ай бұрын

What kind of blades were being used on that dirt trail?!

@brettwhite3 Ай бұрын

Just normal ones with big wheels! Urethane wheels work fine on smooth hard-packed trails, like the jump lines we were doing, but tires come in handy on sand and bumps.
