Bitter Cold Showdown X (WRS TV Pilot)

[@Aliothale]

We will probably never see this level of skating ever again with so many legends under one roof. Absolutely epic.

[@derrickholzhey9685]

Rollerblading in 2023 is weird the hammers are gone this was a great era i started Rollerblading during the shima era and im glad i was able to be a part of that i miss all the Rollerblading companys and its all been lost but not forgotten😑

[@iWashbar]

Lol lock at the winterclash 2023 absolutely crazy

[@bladeshred01]

​@@derrickholzhey9685 so no hammers last weekend???🤣🤣🤣

[@459luker]

Haffey absolutely deserved that win. Especially after coming back from that gnarly slam and stepping it up even further. Taking a slam like that midway through a competition really knocks your confidence and makes it much harder to keep pushing.

[@4g63mark]

I started skating in 94 and havent skated in a few years. But I never thought tricks of this magnitude would be landed with such a high percentage. Its amazing how far the sport has come.

[@MrMeen]

One of the best competition vids out there... such a pinnacle in rollerblading.

[@459luker]

Honestly aragon is so fucking smooth even his setups look sick. That 180 over the box at 21:44 was silky smooth.

[@rotyler2177]

I love 180s. Relatively simple trick but just feels so good to fly around fakie

[@Habeev07]

MORE WRS!!!!! MORE WRS!!!!! BRING IT BACK!!!!! #SOULSKATERS

[@winterkilldrummer23]

Loved experiencing this at my local skatepark during my park rat days....definitely has Barn Burner Vibes but better...miss being at modern everyday...RIP Brett Urbas

[@Habeev07]

THIS IS OUR DECADE BLADING 2020: We can establish a central organization for all of aggressive inline. A WORLD ROLLING SERIES per say again. Featuring all the major early tournaments weighted for importance and size but include the likes of the: Winterclash, NED Bitter Cold Showdown, USA Blading Cup, USA ... We need more. Make it happen roller blade shops worldwide. UNITE.

[@matthewbryson6423]

This whole event was f*cking nuts. Its hard to believe what im watching. Amazing!

[@Gumnball]

Top world class event. Congratz to WRS !!

[@williamholsey]

I will be watching this on TV and hopefully can sponsor it as well one day

[@OpenRecords]

Seriously big ups for a completely professional look at rollerblading. If only more people had your attitude and production values, we might even see it on TV again.

[@paulantoinep]

Good old time , I really miss the day passed in the park just skating :)

[@watchthislekkertje]

Damn this is a great concept 🤘🤘

[@Axle_grinds]

That was such a freaking sweet competition. Soichihiro's style blows my mind

[@Flip4910]

Shima shakes his shoulders like what. Haffey meanwhile did the same thing on a whole other level

[@Flowerz__]

The production value is very good on this. Having the replays on point like this. Really good job guys.

[@remzroller316]

This is very well put together! One day will be on that TV screen again.

[@koltronik1]

That was WAR!! Great skating!!

[@Flip4910]

20:00 Yo the fuckin balls it took to do that is insane. That would so fuckin scary

[@comik-x-familia]

Arlo! Legendary skater and also a talented illustrator. So much respect.

[@dylanrolling5050]

I would hate to be the judge of that OMG that would of had to been the most insane comp ever Good Jobb haffey you did good

[@ItachiUchiha-lr3yr]

That contest will never be matched again. The rare set of circumstances meant that the top 6 skaters ever were all competing against each other & all at their peak. On top of that the competition forcing them to do stuff that they couldn't have otherwise done. I feel that Soichiro should have got third place.

[@timsmith9492]

rollerblading needs to be in the x games again

[@richardtargett8256]

XxX

[@richardtargett8256]

Pulling ramps on roads. And being dragged, let go, then fly up. Like GTA2 and the 18wheelers.

[@kiar775]

We need this again!

[@askroller]

Such a professional hosts! Appreciate the commentary

[@BAsketball3023]

Brian Aragon did awesome

[@natebliton]

This is in Royal Oak, MI :)

[@starwolffan13]

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH MYYYYYYYYY GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD

[@DeadDuck4567]

David Sizemore tapping the coping 3 times on his last trick was too funny. Haha.

[@BecauseiBactracedit]

I wish this went beyond the pilot. Would love coverage like this for every bittercold!

[@JacTraceur94]

I'd love to watch more full competition videos like this!

[@naujelbr]

Who is this pilot for? Fox, NBC, ESPN? Put these contests back on a major television network and the money will start coming back into rollerblading. These tricks are undeniably bigger, smoother, and ballsier than skateboarding. If this makes it's way back onto TV rollerblading will come back. It looks 100 times better now than it did then.

[@Flip4910]

Haffey, Kanashima, and Bolino last 16 seconds fuckin crazy

[@Nikolay061]

Round of applause for the people who made this. this should be on TV every week. Gone are the days of a worn out VHS, because you just had to watch Arlo's section over and over to get you pumped!!

[@redtree78]

Chris Haffey is by far my favourite skater.

[@anthonyhernandezbakersfiel1469]

IMYTA .please come back..Anyone agree? This is amazing though

[@11219tt]

Thank you for using and eyedea song.

[@PurpleSkittle285]

I inline and scooter and I liked this video. and i bet that a lot of people who scooter would actually like this!

[@HomebrewBunny]

AMAZING !

[@Habeev07]

22:45 Who's here after the JUMP STREET PODCAST with Brian Shima? He's on Blading's Mount Rushmore imo.

[@benjaminweis5797]

Thanks Mate! I am officially going! Can not wait!

[@StrataFighter]

19:27 Brian Aragon Killin it!

[@popshotizbeast]

You are one of my all time favs! You'll probably win!

[@USDblader69]

this one was one of the best bcsd i guess... the tricks were definetaly sicker than in 2012

[@MrJayAreGee]

Yeah, before they closed. They sponsored my sister for a while,she would tell me how they would constantly have talks about closing for the longest time. Didn't think it'd actually come to fruition. Really sad to see it go. It literally was the only indoor park worth riding. Everything else is outdoor, and we're known for rain. It sucks. I haven't gotten out to ride in a very long time :[

[@FloridaTVx]

WHO's HERE IN 2022 🙏🏽👐🏽respect

[@coolcc2]

great production!!! great tricks also..

[@corneliousism]

Woooooooooooooooo weyyyyyyyyyy back in the GAME!

[@thomasmendez5063]

We want to see more Arlo Eisenberg he’s the man

[@thejackofclubs87]

There was one made that came out in 2002 for Gamecube, Xbox, and PS2 called Aggressive Inline.

[@Habeev07]

3:10 Billy O'Neill from JUMP STREET PODCAST! Rob G and Jeff Stockwell pumped for Billy too.

[@Martin_Krutina]

Love this one 😍

[@PCHCP011]

Yes, and also would like to add that Okayama isn't that far from me either and I live in Osaka about 2 hours and 40 minutes by car.

[@c.w.9615]

Due to the fact that technical maneuvers and landing is easier because skates are attached to your feet frees the athlete to do huge airs and precision landings. That's what makes it so impressive. Skateboarders hate because they spend years trying to control a plank of wood with the allusion of style and ease. Another thing, why would you call someone a ufcking idiot or a b!tch pussy just because they disagree? It's a little low, don't you think.

[@average-team-kid]

This is gold

[@popshotizbeast]

Man, I was looking for you. Shame u didn't show.

[@jmcgraw6]

Arlo and Matt received their commentator training directly from TSN. 👌 😂 ❤️

[@community_shop]

THIS IS GREAT !

[@Danielson1818]

Totally pisses me off. Both this, and the "Blading Cup" had TV runs a few years ago, and people didn't want to pay attention. Both shows were awesome, and deserved more attention.

[@xjado321]

So much more entertaining than watching skateboarding

[@MrRobinThornton]

The camera work on this video is much more engaging than that of Winterclash. It's a great way of engaging people in the sport.

[@sowcalfitness]

Haffey busting out at Centenial park in Cali!! Around the corner from my pad!!

[@charlieandjackXD]

Chris Haffey: Can't win a game of B.L.A.D.E but can win the Bitter Cold Championship... Good on him :p

[@johnny26910]

are you talking about skate barn west, god i miss that. and know theres almost no indoor skateparks in washington

[@RoschetzkyPhotography]

This is True Athleticism

[@AlexBiebs13]

Finnaly someone normal,i salute you dude!

[@owenoutragous666]

just awesome all the way

[@JakeAndFinnAreMath]

That got so nuts...

[@MrJohnson001]

Livingston did a bio 540 in the beginning of the video. They announced it as misty flip.

[@WoWPunk1]

damn, how did Alex beat Soichiro? wow lol, they're both awesome tho!

[@Flip4910]

at 23:00 minutes he's not sure who he'd give it to? Haffey's trick was way more intense then all the others. The risk factor was extremely higher then the others as well

[@Flip4910]

Not to mention Shima just did a trick that almost every single other skate was doing I think all of them could shrug there shoulders

[@ab0bna]

true...but the rollerblading industry needs more exposure

[@popshotizbeast]

That disaster topside pornstar by Sizemore was fucking INCREDIBLE!!! 23:41

[@benjaminweis5797]

If everything goes the way it is supposed to. I will be there.

[@MrJayAreGee]

Nice, man. Rolling could use any and all new and old blood. Will definitely keep an eye out for you.

[@Jusciedison]

AWESOME

[@RoschetzkyPhotography]

SICK!

[@DAVISJOSHUA08]

i wonder if they're ever be a rollerblading videogame

[@joshsowerby]

arlo is the voice of rollerblading

[@matttorian]

so sick!!

[@Jzyyyy]

i was watching a final like this O_O

[@719Spencer]

13:00 "Jack Stockwell" lol

[@izzyp08]

i think all dislikes came from rob dyrdek and his film crew. ha ha ha

[@Habeev07]

Preach!

[@s3kshun8music]

This shit could be in the X Games ...

[@HyperHitzzz]

[@AlexBiebs13]

Hell Yeah!

[@Megotha]

Summer clash

[@EliteKillersFaction]

OH MY GOOdnes !!!!!

[@rainbowbrown358]

Heck ya Erik Bailey representin for Idaho

[@londonskate92]

Haffey is the man!

[@spade4acer]

6:44 that sentence didn't age well :(

[@bradicul86]

I reckon Sizemore deserved 3rd, he always goes hard but doesn't get recognized as much as he should. Best contest I've ever seen though. Wish I never gave up skating.

[@hayden1693]

so sick
