Frieze Artfair London 2004, Jarrod Rawlins and Blair Artissima Turin 2003, Jarrod and Blair Tara Rawlins and Blair Uplands Team during the first year or so of the gallery
Blair would have loved the move to Prahran. At every opportunity he'd beg me to take him there for a roll. I fondly remember him wanting to show me the new ramp...we were a bit nervous dropping into it because it was so big without our pads, but we did it. I'd never seen himlook so scared. The longer I dwell on it the more I think it was a put on to make me feel stronger when I did it first. He could have done it with bare feet and a smoke in his mouth.
Been a year already mate. It really hits you when you're watching a new skate video such as Live After Death by Plan B and realize that you would have been the one who had it first and made an event out of describing every trick in it to us before we saw it. Still thinking of you every day.
