Dreaming With No Sleep

Dominik Wagner was in town for a few days and the Perez brothers were able to skate and film with him during his recent visit. Check the edit filmed by James Perez and Steven Perez. “Dominik Wagner was in New York for a couple of days. He arrived on October 20th. Although I had a busy schedule with school, and Dom had a tight schedule with work, we were able to spend quality time on and off the blades. It was dope to see a dear friend that I haven’t personally seen in years, but of course we always stay in touch and communicate. We managed to get a few clips each, and I decided to put them together as a gift for Dom. I hope you enjoy what I’ve put together” – James Perez.

More from James Perez, “It was “dope” to skate the Brooklyn Banks with Dominik. I remember years ago, when we were in the area, Downtown Manhattan. We were standing in front of the Brooklyn Banks, and for those that may not know, there is a police station across the street. Dominik was ready to hop over and climb over the gate to get into the banks. Haha I had to stop him and tell him to “chill”, cops would have arrested us on the spot, this was during the period that cops guarded the Bk banks because of the construction equipment.

Besides work,Dominik was also in New York for our friends wedding. Our dear friend Shawn Engler recently tied the knot and got married. It was a beautiful ceremony, with the New York City sky line in the background. While the ceremony took place, the love and the city was so vibrant. Congratulations to Shawn and Coco!! Much blessings for you the your future” – James Perez.

A Day In The Concrete Jungle

Check out the latest from James Perez skating in Harlem, NY. Filmed by Steven Perez. “Met up with my older brother in Harlem on 9/23/17. We skated for a couple of hours throughout the city. Balancing school and skating has been a true blessing. While i was doing homework i decided to take a break and put together the footage that was captured. My brother is not Adam Johnson or Ivan Narez, in other words he is not the best at filming. However i’m not the best skater, or claim to be, both of us were just having fun. Having said that, i put this together out of love for the sport, and i’m not the best at editing videos. I will forever represent our city , New York City. This is my home, and i’ll try to represent it the best way i can. Ill like to truly thank VALO and Jon Julio for supporting my blading throughout the years. It’s an honor.
Hope you guys enjoy!! Much love” – James Perez.

Be-Mag X I Roll NY: 1 Minute 1 Spot with James Perez

“When James told me that he was selected to be apart of Be-Mag’s One Minute One Spot series, I knew we had to pick a place that had a lot to offer. We decided to go to John Dewey High School, home of the New York City IMYTA competitions. Dewey is a forgotten staple in the NYC scene due to it’s far away location and constant security around the area, but if you can skate it, it’s a great place for creating various lines. We managed to go on a dreary Sunday morning and got enough clips to create an edit for Be-Mag. James is a talented blader who constantly progress and pushes himself on a daily basis. I’m glad I was able to help him in this opportunity provided by Be-Mag and hope this help him gets the recognition and respect he deserves.” – Craig B. Filmed by Steven Perez and Craig B.
