Joe Huggett A Legend On Skates

Life is different for everyone and following your dreams is something only some off us will do. On his way to the top Joe Huggett an Aggressive Inliner had to throw in the towel after a numerous injuries.


Huggett started rollerblading when he was 14 years old after finding an old pair of skates at his parents house. That Christmas he got a pair of professional blades and took to the streets to become one of the greatest rollerbladers in the Midwest.

Most people have never heard of him because he never wanted to be in the spotlight and when approached about a sponsorship he would prefer just to skate for fun than anything else. He placed in the top three a few times at the skate competition in Watertown, South Dakota but he was mainly know for his video parts featuring his signature front flip. 

Between the years of 2002 and 2006 he suffered a number of injuries that put an end to the dream that could have been for Huggett. The video featured shows just some of the footage he was collecting that never went to a final video. There is still talk about a video being released in the winter of 2012 that will have a special feature dedicated to the legend Joe Hugget.
