Ivan Parikov

Motivated by inline skating videos that got him interested, Ivan Pravikov, aka ROT8TED, started blading in 2022 and eventually ended up finding and watching Wizard of Wall Street saw a very stylish skating expressed in figure skating way executed effortlessly and elegantly.

The state of flow that was described is something that keeps him coming back to this sport. One with the tool, one with the blade, one with the feeling. Ivan used to play piano, then became a pro sim racer. Now he tries to be good at blading and enjoys the skill development process as well as the feeling of flow:)

Inspired by Junkuy Park in this video, Ivan bought braindead x wizard skating frames
