Haven't done one of these in a while due to my full time job but got the chance to meet up with Muska so I took it.

Caught up with him at the London Skytop 77 launch party (unfortunately the party had begun so it was super loud in there) and chatted about his use of social media as a cathartic release, a standard Penny mention and a few other topics.

Apologies for the sound!

Not had much chance to interview anyone in a while (day job getting in the way) but was able to edit this chat with Lovenskate Pro/Team GB skater Jordan Thackeray.

If you aren't familiar with the UK scene outside Palace and Atlantic Drift it's defo worth your time checking this out; Jordan absolutely rips and is about as far removed from "comp skater robot" as it is possible to be. Which makes the fact he's repping Team GB all the more daft.

Getting the opportunity to do any interviews have been few and far between this year, what with lock down and all that, but I reached out to a few companies about doing some long distant chats and I'm thrilled that Lakai hooked up the opportunity to quiz Griffin Gass.

Nice work. Seems like a solid dude. Big fan of his skating.

100%. Been chatting with him over insta during the editing process and he's wanted to be involved throughout. No ego, just a guy that gives a shit - made me an even bigger fan.

Managed a quick chat with the perma-friendly Spanky, talking about the birth of his daughter, life in lockdown, 18 years on Emerica and more...

Hell yeah, I love any Spanky content! He just seems like such a chill and caring guy, not to mention dreamy too

Love that dude, classy in everything he does nowadays, great style all around.

The Ronettes are timeless beauty, Phil Spector is gone.

Got the chance to catch up with Busenitz, primarily to discuss his 15th year anniversary with adidas and the new Busenitz Indoor Super shoe, but also chat about a few other things like dealing with lockdowns, turning 40 and making ledges for his backyard park.

Just reuploaded my recent Kelly Hart interview with a few tweaks (nothing major so if you saw the original no need to rewatch - unless you want to of course!). Part one below, part two next week.

@BlacklistedUK do you do these freelance or are you an employee/owner of Route One?

Freelance. I have a "proper" full time job outside of skating and do these in my spare time.

Paul Rodriguez, Miles Silvas & J.B. Gillet were over in the UK for the premiere of 'DEFINE' last week and as Route One was hosting a signing in their London Store I was able to sit down with Paul for a chat about the vid, the team, approaching 40 and more.

Miles Silvas interview next week (probably).
