Blading Chats #48 - Lawrence Ingraham
Json sits down with Lawrence Ingraham in episode 48 of Blading Chats.
“Who doesn't know 50/50?! and who hasn't been happy to see this legendary brand's products around again?! 50/50 is the brand that has given the skating industry a breakthrough. It didn't just create the grindplates and a system to have frames, of excellent quality, different from the ones that came out with the skate, but it also redefined the game thanks to the Universal Frame Sistem UFS.
With Lawrence we talked about how he returned to the scene, how despite being a full-time programmer with a family and two kids he has time to skate, review products and have a youtube channel with 10K of subscribers he managed to bring 50/50 back to life and how he has a team based on professionalism and brand attachment from his skaters.” - Json Adriani

With him we talked about the London scene, what it means to skate in a city like London, the choice to film with vx and his latest project Devotion.

Blading Chats #45 - Angie Walton of Daily Bread
Json sits down with Daily Bread’s Angie Walton in episode 45 of Blading Chats.
“This episode is a little longer than average, but guys there's a lot of that knowledge here.
Angie Walton was the editor-in-chief and creator of Daily Bread (for those who don't know, the coolest blading newspaper in the world), one of the creators of our sport and an essential figure in our culture.
I think that together with the Jump Street Podcast episode with Jon Julio and Miguel Ramos here we talked about the roots of our sport.” - Json Adriani
Blading Chats #44 - Erika Zanetti
Json sits down with Erika Zanetti in episode 44 of Blading Chats.

Erika has been world, European and national champion many times, with her we talked about the preparation that an athlete at that level must maintain, what it means to participate in races the opposite of those we are used to, how this crazy situation, ironically, helped the whole skating scene and how she became part of the Rollerblade family working in the sales&marketing department.” - Json Adriani
