Career
Like many inline skaters Haffey began rollerskating at childhood and by the age of 11 switched to single row inline skates and upon moving to Atlanta was introduced to the Aggressive skating discipline (also known as blading) through ice hockey before returning to California. While in California, Haffey was submergred in the culture of California"s Aggressive Skating scene by former professional turned producer, Brian Bell ), and through him met skating industry leader Kato Mateu (Remz). The two became good friends as Kato sponsored many of Haffey"s moves through his company Remz.
This was a turning point for Haffey and his importance in the sport grew by consistently placing in podium positions thereafter.
Escalating him to the ranks of pioneers in the sport before him like Arlo Eisenberg, Aaron Feinberg, and Brian Shima. He is accredited by many as the individual who has spawned the renaissance in aggressive skating with the consistency of his performances.
This is also the reason why he is sought after by many sponsors and events outside the industry. One example of this is his participation in the Nitro Circus Live Tour, where was cited as the "best rollerblader in the world" for their Las Vegas Show
