In 2016 we released print issue #22 and one of the key features was an impeccably photographed feature on Australia’s Rian Arnold. After coming on strong at the 2006 Hoedown where he took 2nd place to Brian Aragon(!), it was a series of video parts like “simply, Ryan” from French brand ‘you are here’ and then the productive friendship with videographer extraordinare Dom West that spread his reputation. “Vine St” helped make Rian’s signature style recognizable around the world, and though he never put out an abundance of content, clips of Rian became highly influential. So we were super excited to feature Rian in Issue #22 in a series of striking images that Hayden Golder captured. To top it off, the indelible Robbie Pitts, longtime Australia blade peer, provides an in-depth profile write up that sheds much light on Rian’s career. We suggest everyone read the story for maximum effect, but until then enjoy these photos that clearly define the potential of blading style.
