Rollerblade introduced a new team of ambassadors.
Multiple World Inline Cup winner Yann Guyander, who is also the current product manager at the Rollerblade HQ in Italy, will lead the team and be one of the seven skaters from all over the globe representing Rollerblade. Skating with him are Guillaume de Mallevoue, Sebastian Paredes, Quentin Giraudeau, Aura Quintana, Vincent Esnault, and Jorge Botero.
“We are excited to bring back the Rollerblade Speed Team and our roster is such an incredible lineup of tremendous athletes — I can’t wait to watch them represent our brand at races and competitions around the world,” said Stephen Charrier, co-president of Rollerblade. “Inline skating has so many different styles and approaches, from adventuring through the neighborhood with the family to freestyle skating around the streets of major cities, and speed skating is one we are thrilled to focus on again, investing in both the athletes themselves and skates that will enhance their performance.”
The Rollerblade Speed Team is gearing up for races in Spain, Italy, France, South Korea, Germany, and the United States during the 2017 season.
