Double Trouble

Every summer we used to drive up to Vancouver, Canada for the "Slam City Jam" contest, Vancouver is amazing, one of my favorite cities. All kinds of hijinx would go on up there, I think Sheffey and Chico would get into a fight at least once every year,these dudes can throw down! Two of the dopest skaters without a doubt,style for miles,just don't piss them off! 98

Young mackin...

When I first moved back to SF from Detroit I didn't really have any friends, I used to skate alone down by my house out on 48th ave,a pretty boring neighborhood. One day I was out skating and Karl Watson, Lavar & Marcus McBride and a bunch of other guys came to my neighborhood to skate, and I recognized Karl from school, I met them all and was tripping on how good they were, I mean they were doing tricks I had never even seen before. Karl was already doing noseblunt slides on red curbs,I couldn't even grasp the concept. Karl and I got to talking and we met the next day and after school he took me to his house to hook me up with some much needed skate product, it was crazy he was already sponsored (So since the first day I met him he has been sponsored and killing it,thats about 19 years ago) After his house we went down to EMB, I was tripping, I got home so late that when I arrived the police were there, after that I was at EMB everyday. I tell that story a lot,thanks Karl.Nothing too crazy but a great memory. here we are macking at Pier 7 a few years later, maybe around 94-95,not too sure...dreaded up.

Reemo....

Kareem Campbell is one of the most stylish and charismatic skaters to ever set foot on a board, this contest was somewhere in Germany, or maybe Switzerland, not to sure. I caught Reem in this flick right before he was going out to do his thing on the course,I love the yellow doo rag I think this was around 2000-2001.

Keenans house....

Keenan was basically the best dude that ever lived.  His house was the place to be, his door was never locked, I remember you could just roll up to his house anytime and walk in, grab a beer out of the fridge and sit down on the couch, a few minutes later Keenan would stumble out of his room with a hot chick,and he would be happy to see you, its tough to say if that kind of lifestyle is wrong or right, we all want to have  fun but there are consequences that come with everything we do, here we are in Keenans house,just a normal night,the woman to my bottom left is Diana, she is married to my best friend Sam Smyth,they have a beautiful lil boy named Sunny,god I love him,fuck i'm rambling...

First time in Europe

This is literally the first moment I ever set foot in Europe, in this photo we are in Dusseldorf in Germany straight off the plane, I was so excited to be in Europe and out of America. Look ay my outfit, I look pretty craze,I miss Eric Pupecki,I haven;t seen him in many years....1998
