About Me

What about me? I started skateboarding somewhere around 1966 but really got into it in the summer of 69'. What kind of skating did I do? I first skated surf style which is my favorite style today, then I got into freestyle. You know nose wheelies, handstands, headstands, 360's, high jump, etc. Then I got into slalom and downhill, I still downhill today. Top speed is around 65 mph. Did some slalom not too long ago, out of 100 cones I think I made through 15, The shit is gnarly. My real passion is pool riding started around 74' and is still my passion today. Conserve Water - Drain Your Pool. What other things am I into? Snowboarding because of the speed and air (deep power days), windsurfing, surfing, mountain biking and just tried kite boarding the other day. Words to live by?
