New York City: September Sessions via ONE

One Magazine published a new article featuring coverage of the New York City blade scene with photos and words by former local photographer Drew Humphrey. “It has been about two years since I last visited back home, so I thought it was time I went back to New York City, which I did September 20-27. I was excited for all the skating and seeing all my friends. Though I moved to Portland about two and half years ago and can never imagine moving back to NYC, it is always nice to visit” – Drew Humphrey. See all the photos and read the full article here.

Butter TV Montre Livingston Behind The Scenes

Before Thanksgiving and immediately after he just finished touring with Vibralux for his Trail of beers VOD, I reached out to Montre to see if he was open to fly up for a quick weekend here in NYC–Queens specifically–to blade, chill, and drink some beers. He took me up on that offer and showed up that same weekend.

Now, the closest I’ve ever got to him in person was watching him tear it up live at the NYC Invite so I had no idea what to expect but as soon as I picked him up from Laguardia Airport he was as cool as anyone can get. Add a 12-pack of Pabst in the mix and you can say we covered a lot on life that night.

This section takes place over a short winter weekend where sunlight does not last very long but all of us involved still enjoyed a good amount of blading, drinking, thai food, and good vibes.

Sam Grimm One Night At Oil City Skatepark

“Aside from occasionally seeing him at a local skate comp watching from the sidelines–catching up with Sam Grimm on a pair of blades is a hard task these days. He’s a family man, a supervisor for a general contractor, and a student for another degree in engineering.

Two years ago we talked about putting together a new edit and Sam even bought a new pair of USD’s. One night we showed up at Oil City Skate Park to get back into shape and shot these “rinky dink” tricks.

Unfortunately life got extremely busy for us all and we haven’t been able to film much so rather than delay any longer–Here’s what we got started.
