The New Jug High Top Shoe Commercial from Razors News on Vimeo.

Everything on the JUG HT is designed from scratch, from the outsole and a custom designed insole to imported PU and action leather materials. The outsole conforms to DIN 90 which means it’s is more than three times as abrasive resistant as conventional soles which is a result of its high Butadiene styrene rubber content.

The insole is specifically made for Jug from a high end Polyurethane with gel heel insert which provides a feeling of walking on clouds. It comes with black waxed laces with engraved metal tips. An extra pair of white laces is included in the box.

Name your top 3 skate events of all time.
Wilmington NC Street Comp 03 sticks out in my mind because it was my first contest I ever went to. I pornstared this huge drop kink rail to win best trick.  I think the prize was a pair of SixWonSix sweatpant shorts. 

What is the newest skate dvd you purchased?
I haven’t bought a skate video in a while. Mindgame Bang maybe was the last one.

What kind of cellular device do you have?
An old LG phone with a cracked screen and no antenna.

Could you live without it?  For how long?
Yes. I hate my phone. The longest consecutive amount of time I’ve gone without a cell phone is a month. I could easily go longer.

How has blading made you a better person?
Rollerblading has given me an outlet and an escape that I couldn’t find in any other activity or sport I have ever participated in.  It has more than likely kept me away from a lot of destructive decisions, provided me a strong group of friends, and given me incentive to travel the world. But at the same time a lot of other hobbies, interests, jobs and women have been abandoned due to skating.  Rollerblading has definitely had a huge role in molding me into who I am today.  I’m not  necessarily sure if I’m a better person because of it, but I am happy with the results.    

If you didn’t have blading where would you be right now? 
I would be finished with college, holding down a successful job, and still be with my last girlfriend.

Do you think you personally contribute to creating new bladers?
Yes.

If yes, how?  If no, why not?
Each time I get a new pair of skates I give my old pair to a youngster interested in blading.
