Welcome, welcome and welcome.<br />
If you are just picking up this <strong>Balance</strong> <strong>rolling</strong> <strong>magazine</strong> special issue,<br />
please skip immediately to the trade show layout on the next page,<br />
find your favorite companies and start shopping. They are all going to<br />
have amazing deals along with some new releases waiting for you.<br />
If you are still reading this, you might already be missing out.<br />
Now if you are picking this up again after all your shopping and<br />
mingling is done, you should start thinking about the competition.<br />
Seating inside the park is first come, first served. So if you are<br />
wanting a prime spot in the bleachers or have another spot scoped<br />
out, you may want to start waiting in line. Doors open to the park at<br />
3:00 PM, so be ready.<br />
Finally, if all of that is taken care of let me take this time to thank you.<br />
The Bitter Cold Showdown is one of the premiere rollerblading<br />
events in the world because of you. For 11 years, the Bitter Cold<br />
Showdown has grown bigger and stronger because of all the support<br />
from the rollerblading community. It has become a standard within<br />
the industry where every major manufacturer is represented at the<br />
trade show. It is the spot to unveil new products to the industry. It has<br />
become the contest to both attend and win.<br />
The Bitter Cold Showdown is unlike any other event because of your<br />
support.<br />
Thank you.<br />

All times Eastern Standard Time<br />
J.C. Rowe - What’s your favorite part about the competition?<br />
Chris Haffey - The vibe. This is one contest where there’s no pressure, it’s actually a lot<br />
of fun. It’s organized so that you’re still motivated when it’s your turn to skate. When it<br />
gets to my heat, I’m ready to go because I know what’s going on.<br />
J.C. - Who’s energy did you feed off the most?<br />
Chris - It’s hard to say because it was just back-to-back-to-back tricks. I saw Jon Bolino<br />
killing it, Brian Aragon, Soichiro Kanashima, Shima. I always get pumped to watch<br />
Shima skate. It was just a good vibe. I wouldn’t have wanted to be a judge for this<br />
competition.<br />
J.C. - Thanks for your time, Chris.<br />

Nick Uhas - Jon, you skated amazing all day. How do you feel right now?<br />
Jon Bolino - I feel great. I’m glad that my really good friend Chris Haffey just won a lot<br />
of money, Aragon got third and everyone killed it. It was a great competition. Everyone<br />
that I wanted to see get up there, got up there.<br />
Nick - What was your favorite trick that you landed?<br />
Jon - I guess the last one, I got carried off the course.<br />
Nick - Thanks for talking with us, Jon.
