What is "New School" to you?

Posted: 2007-12-08 09:37:42

I've seen a lot of mention lately about things being old school. "These 2005 thrones are old school", "Dustin Latimer is so old school", etc. It's crazy to me, that's not old school, Chris Edwards is old school!
So, just wondering, what do you consider old school, let alone new school? Is any skater who can't remember a time before UFS considered new school? Is it a group of tricks they do, or a style they do it in?
When I started skating, new school meant little wheels. If you were skating antirocker, had grindplates and could actually use them, that was new school. Now I'll admit, that was 10 years ago, but that's my definition.

My acid soul from 1995, arguably, is old school

What is Rollerhome All About?

We love rollerblading and like many of you, we live on the web. There are a lot of places where rollerblading and the web mix, but over the years we realized something was missing. Most of the websites are just blogs with a forum, which is fine if that's all you want, but there's so much more that can be done.

Rollerhome was designed to give you everything you could ask for in a rollerblading community. We've been doing this stuff since before Google registered google.com. Yeah, that long. We've seen what works and what doesn't, what people want and what they don't want.

We want this to be your site, your home online. If you have any suggestions on how we can make it better, please let us know in the forums.
