Platform Episode 42 – Jacob Juul
from wheelsceneblading on 5 Aug 2021

Danish blading icon Jacob Juul is the latest guest on Platform. He has won more contests than he can remember, including several events in 2018 alone, and produced a phenomenal amount of street sections over the years. He is known for exceptionally technical skating and carried the torch for his national scene for many years, following in the footsteps of fellow countrymen Rene Hulgreen and Tom Ahlqvist.

Jacob talks about how he discovered skating, travelling throughout Europe on his own to make a name for himself, getting on Remz and going on tour with Chris Haffey and Franky Morales, winning the AIL at Woodward West and his pro skate from Remz that never came out, getting on USD and again narrowly missing out on another pro skate, and his future plans with Trigger. He also talks about his highly successful skate school that he has developed to become a sustainable income.

Platform Episode 41 – Eric Schrijn
from wheelsceneblading on 30 Jul 2021

The latest guest on Platform is a true icon of the sport, Esco Zoo’s very own Eric Schrijn. He was involved in aggressive skating from its initial birth, skated for some of the biggest companies at the height of the sport’s mainstream popularity, and stuck with it through some of the toughest times in its short history.

Eric has an insane amount of stories, including how he was introduced to aggressive skating through his youth pastor, none other than living legend Chris Edwards. He talks about how the Airman advised him to skate for Senate, what it was like riding for Rollerblade during their most lucrative period, competing at the X Games in front of tens of thousands of people, the insane perks that came with being a successful pro skater during that era and how he witnessed its rapid fall from grace.

Throughout our discussion, Eric was warm, charming and didn’t take himself too seriously. He was very candid and openly discussed the moments he cherished and the experiences that were the most difficult for him emotionally. Unlike some of his contemporaries from that period, he looks back on his time as a pro with fond memories and advises how he believes it made him improve as a person.
