About Me

I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4REBEL SKATES is the original hardcore skateshop turned skateboard and apparel manufacturer from Portland Oregon. Started in 1985 by a couple of skateboarders tired of asshole shop owners treating the skaters and the sport like shit. lining their pockets and giving nothing back. Today, Rebel is still run by a couple of skateboarders. The battle is a little different but our message is still the same. We are 100% skateboarders. We will not sell anything we wouldn't ride ourselves. Rebel Skates is a by the skater for the skater company.

My Interests

Providing anyone interested with the opportunity to ride a premium product. In life the choices are usually the same, it's the decisions we make that carve the stone. everyone should be able to ride what and where they please. chances are the kid with the mohawk doesn't want to buy the pastel colored skateboard. Demand REBEL!!!!! If your local shop doesn't carry your flavor, go elsewhere.

I'd like to meet:

We'd like to meet real folks. Hardcore skateboarders, artists, musicians, poets, criminals. Roller Grrrls get our support everyday. We are not interested in having anything to do with anyone that isn't having fun. If you are having fun, we can only hope it is at "the Man's" expense. So if you think you're qualified, jump on board. It's going to be a wild ride, a handplant on society's head!

Music:

Music is a very personal indulgence. We like everything from Frank Sinatra to Frank Black. Johnny Cash to Johnny Thunders. Favorites lean towards the Clash, Dead Boys,Ramones, etc.

Movies:

Music is life, Film is art, Television is furniture. True Romance, Goodfellas,Scarface,Unforgiven,Heat,Taxi Driver. Good stuff to watch.

Books:

Basketball Diaries, Fight Club, The Stand, Animal Farm, One Flew Over the Cukoo's Nest.
