Intuition Rollerbladers,

If you are like me, then you cannot believe how fast Christmas and the Holiday Season have arrived this year. The shop has been busy, and I am eternally grateful for that. And it never ceases to amaze me how my friends find a unique way to make it feel more like Christmas, even as the days speed up and 2011 turns into a blur. These are the coolest Christmas cards I have received at Intuition so far.

CHECK THIS: It’s Beginning to Feel More Like Christmas

The first card is from none other than legendary blade photographer Dan Busta. Check out his exemplary photography work here. The second card is from Brian Shima and the SSM crew, and is especially cool because it features a hand made likeness of my favorite musician of all time – Neil Young. Thank you Dan and Brian!

Now we all know that Christmas isn’t really about what ends up under the tree with your name on it, but what you give. So this year, give your scene/crew a proper holiday session. Call up the fellas you haven’t skated with in a while, make a Facebook post, send out texts to all the bladers you know, and get a big skatepark or street session going on Christmas Eve or even Christmas Day. Everyone will be at home, so spots will be a virtual no bust. I think you’ll be surprised by how much a big crew session can do for you personally and your scene as a whole. These Holiday Season sessions will be looked back on as the golden years. Hell, maybe even roll over to someone’s house after the session to watch videos, and kick back. Give your scene/crew a proper Blade Christmas.

Intuition Rollerbladers,

OG Intuitionland blader Jeff Destefani told us about new ledges he found, so we met up there today only to find out it was a spot we skated a few years back. Nevertheless, the session went down, and we found ways to make this old spot new again, and Jeff proved an old dog still has his tricks. Then we hit one more spot, and called it a night. Check out the exclusive gallery below, and stay tuned to the Intuition Facebook or Twitter and you’ll always get a heads up on the next session.

“Every frame has a story to tell. Every scratch is a letter, every chip a flare of creativity, every mark a test of endurance, every groove a path of accomplishment. Every ramp, every rail, every fall, every cheer, every journey. Every trick you land and every trick you don’t, carved into a layer of plastic, concealed beneath our feet.

Every frame has a story to tell. This is ours. To celebrate over a decade of Ground Control frames, comes the film to define a generation.
