Platform Episode 40 – Matty Vella
from wheelsceneblading on 23 Jul 2021

Matty Vella is one of my favourite skaters in the UK and I am massive fan of his style and trick selection. I invited him up to film for the first Wheel Scene video about four years ago and we’ve been good friends ever since. Anyone who has spent time with Matty knows that he has a great sense of humour, doesn’t take himself too seriously and knows how to have a good time.

Matty talks to us about the various projects he’s been involved with this year, including helping Alex Burston build SK Skatepark, doing lessons at various skateparks and working on an upcoming Manchestuhhh project. He also talks about getting on USD Skates and BHC Wheels, what it was like hanging out with Bobi Spassov for the first time, his current injury that he’s struggling with and more.

Platform Episode 39 – Sacha Lopez
from wheelsceneblading on 9 Jul 2021

Sacha Lopez has been around for a long time, but it feels like he’s finally getting the recognition he deserves. He was recently picked up by new boot brand Iqon, as well as skating for the iconic frame company 50-50, and his section in the Barcelona scene video Flama was exceptional. He has just followed up that ender part with an online profile, and he’s got another one coming out this summer.

Sacha talks about having to leave his native Argentina because of all the violence, what it was like growing up in Germany, why he moved to Barcelona and what his life is like now. He also discusses why he quit Razors after riding for the brand for several years and his plans going forward.

Platform Episode 38 – Freddy White
from wheelsceneblading on 28 Jun 2021

Sometimes, a bald Scotsman feels the need to interview an equally bald Frenchman. Freddy White has worked tirelessly to provide blading content over the years, with Frenchie Fries, Be-Mag, FISE, Cayenne Project and more, so it seemed only right to sit him down and ask about it all.

I managed to make not one but TWO errors in the intro. Nils Jansons’ VOD is called Mind Your Step, not Mind The Step, and there are four Cayenne Project videos, not three, even though I listed all four in the intro! I blame old age.

Platform Episode 37 – Josh Nielsen
from wheelsceneblading on 15 Jun 2021

Josh Nielsen’s section in the Melbourne scene video Seven Rats back in 2011 was brilliant and I’ve been a fan of his skating ever since. He also has a great part in Vine St: Chapter II, full of switch and natural variations, and has produced a bunch of entertaining online videos over the years, including Neon Inline alongside Rob Kellett.

Josh was recently added to the USD Skates team, so it seemed like the perfect time to find out more about him, how he got on the boot brand, what it was like filming for Vine St with Dom West and being in Wuhan, China when Coronavirus swept the planet. He also talks about his time living in Copenhagen, his favourite Australian skaters, plans for the future and more.
