A platform built around rollerblading
BladeFeed is a platform for inline skaters, founded by Andy Durge in the Netherlands. Its public website introduces the project as a home for rollerblading, with videos, rider profiles, skate spots and crews. The focus is the skating itself: a session clip, a place worth exploring or a group that wants to skate together.
This article is published by BladeFeed Journal. It is an introduction to our platform, not an independent review. The practical examples below describe ways to get started; they are not promises about how many views or followers an account will receive.
You can explore the public website before deciding what to share. BladeFeed also has listings on Google Play and the App Store. Available features and updates can differ between versions, so check the app listing and the current interface for specific details.
Start with one session clip
Your first post does not have to be a career highlight. Choose a recording that says something about your skating today. A familiar trick, a line at your local park or a moment from a session gives another rider something concrete to watch.
Write a caption that adds context instead of repeating “new clip”. Explain what the line was, what you enjoyed about the session or why the moment mattered. Credit the filmer and make sure the people involved are comfortable with the footage being shared.
Keep the original file. If you change the edit later, it is useful to have the untrimmed recording available. You can also keep attempts privately; an account does not require you to publish every session.
Use places to give clips context
The spot directory is another way into the community. A map or location page can help you identify a place to investigate, while related material can show how riders use it. Check current venue information and on-site rules separately before planning a visit.
A useful contribution explains something specific. If you share a location detail, name the entrance or describe what you saw on the date of your visit. Avoid turning one afternoon's observation into a permanent statement about access or condition.
A clip and a place together tell a fuller story: what happened and where the session took place. That is helpful for a rider who recognises the location as well as someone encountering it for the first time.
Represent the people you skate with
Crews offer another starting point. The public crew directory shows groups on BladeFeed. If you already skate with friends, a shared identity can make your sessions easier to recognise. If you are browsing, a crew page can introduce you to another part of the scene.
Before thinking about a group name, agree on a real session: the time, the location and how the invitation reaches people. The online identity should support those afternoons. Keep filming duties fair and respect someone who does not want a clip published.
Use the features that fit your group. You can value the shared sessions without making every meetup competitive. A crew's purpose is clearer when people know what skating together actually looks like.
Meet Andy Durge and follow the project
Andy Durge is the founder behind BladeFeed. His public LinkedIn profile presents the platform and shares development updates. The app listings identify him as the developer. Those public references provide a straightforward way to connect the project to the person building it.
For BladeFeed updates and community highlights, follow @bladefeed.app on Instagram. You can also find Andy Durge on LinkedIn. The journal will keep its guides focused on practical ideas you can use during your own sessions.
A simple first step is enough: explore a spot, watch a few clips or share a recording with a clear caption. You do not need a polished personal brand to bring your skating into the community.
