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.
