This week on the SK8LIKEYOU Podcast, I’m joined by David Smith, better known as @smittyonskates, to talk all things HeartBreak Skate Jam.

We dig into how HeartBreak first came to life, the uphill battle of keeping the event alive before skating’s recent resurgence, and what it’s taken to build something that the community truly believes in. Smitty breaks down what skaters can expect this year when HeartBreak takes over Spinnerz in Carrollton, Georgia on February 20th and 21st, plus where he sees the event heading in the future.

Smitty’s passion for skating runs deep. He’s driven not just to preserve the culture, but to push it forward and create space for it to evolve the right way. If you love the behind the scenes of skate events, care about the history, or just enjoy hearing from someone who truly lives this life, this one is for you.

Skate nerds are absolutely gonna love this one.

The internet saw the clips.

The rink felt the movement.

But this conversation goes deeper than the viral moments.

In this episode of the SK8LIKEYOU Podcast, I sit down with Kyle Dutcher, known to the skating world as Push — one of the most influential and recognizable figures in modern roller skating.

Push’s skating style is instantly identifiable. Smooth. Expressive. Intentional. His viral rise helped bring roller skating to audiences far beyond the rink, but what most people don’t see is the journey behind the momentum.

In this episode, we talk about:

• How Push found skating and developed his unique style
• What really happened after the viral explosion
• The pressure that comes with visibility and expectations
• Creativity, self expression, and skating as a form of therapy
• Community, culture, and staying grounded while pushing forward

This isn’t just an interview about skating clips or social media success. It’s a real conversation about growth, identity, and what it takes to keep moving when the spotlight is on you.

The SK8LIKEYOU Podcast isn’t just about skating — it’s about life, and this episode with Push is a perfect example of why.

If skating has ever been more than just skating to you, this episode will hit home.

On this episode of the SK8LIKEYOU Podcast, we welcome Fusion Skate Group members Brandon “DJ B Nasty” and Amari “DJ Black Dragon” for their first-ever appearance on the podcast—and the timing couldn’t be better.

The guys are coming off a major milestone, having just earned their first win at the annual Shuffle Down in O-Town Shuffle Skate Competition in their hometown of Orlando, FL. After three consecutive years of finishing in second place, this long-awaited victory made the moment even sweeter. We talk about just how meaningful that win was, the mindset it took to finally break through, and what set them apart from the rest of the competition.

We also dive into the formation of Fusion Skate Group, how the crew came together, and the role music and skating play in shaping their identity. Brandon and Amari discuss their sponsorship with Uniq Skates, what that partnership means to them, and the pride that comes with repping Astro Orlando as the home team. From competitive skating and DJ culture to community, consistency, and what’s next, this episode captures the energy and momentum behind Fusion’s rise.

If you’re into shuffle skating, rink culture, and championship moments that come from years of dedication, this episode is a must-listen.

On this episode of the SK8LIKEYOU Podcast, I sit down with Belle of Roller Rag Magazine, a quarterly publication with readers from all over the world that’s helping document and elevate roller skating culture. Belle breaks down how she defines Roller Rag as a “community-sourced” magazine, with nearly 85% of each issue’s content coming directly from reader submissions, making it a true reflection of the skating community.

Belle also shares her longtime career in print media, why she still loves the medium, and what continues to inspire her to tell stories through print in a digital-first world. We discuss the importance of preserving skating history, giving shine to underground talent, and how community-driven media helps connect skaters across regions, styles, and generations.

From culture and fashion to floor styles and storytelling, this episode highlights why Roller Rag Magazine matters and how skaters themselves are shaping its pages. If you love roller skating, community, and the art of print, this is an episode you don’t want to miss.
