Mike Torres – 2012 Blade Profile
from Mike Torres on 10 Mar 2013

In the past couple of years, when I wasn’t nursing a dislocated shoulder, working my ass off, recovering from a sprained ankle, rehabbing a pulled ACL, uprooting my life to the dirty south, working my ass off even more, pretending that my wrist wasn’t broken, nursing a dislocated shoulder (again), and totally doing it with every girl ever… I was rollerblading.

2009 Stretch Tour Highlights
from Mike Torres on 26 Jan 2013

This is an edit I made just a few days after the tour ended back in 2009, on my friend Connor O’Brien’s computer, while I was still stuck out in California (which ended up being for just over a month). The Stretch Tour Video was always something I had a strong desire to make, but never felt the full story was truly captured on camera. Perhaps one day I will release all of this footage in some form, but until then, enjoy this four and a half minute recap of me, and some of the best friends a dude could ask for traveling across the United States in our 1989 Lincoln Towncar Stretch Limousine.

Just some dudes cruising around the blade park, hitting some obstacs, while I test out my new rig (sans external mic).

Grant Hazelton Blades in AZ (2011)
from Mike Torres on 5 Oct 2012

He’s not my brother. He is also not my twin. He is the better looking, more responsible, more technical, more stylish, version of myself. He is my upgrade. Perhaps he was sent here from the future to kill the young John Connor, and it is my job to save him regardless of the fact that I am a technically inferior model… I digress.

Grant is one of my best friends, and probably my favorite person to skate with. And boy can he pull off a mustache.

Gary Murphy Blading in AZ
from Mike Torres on 2 Oct 2012

I made them do it. All of them. If you wanted in on my AZ trip in 2011 you had to prove it by growing out your facial hair and shaving it into a mustache on the first day. Gary was dedicated to the trip, so I’m dedicating this section to one of the most solid bladers, and most importantly, one of the most solid people, I know.
