South Hills Skate Contest Shirt

We had a great turnout at the South Hills Skate Contest on June 16th , 2007 . I want to thank everyone for helping out especially Lenny for organizing the slalom event and Melissa for handling the registration. This was a pic of the ransom note contest shirt. I hope everyone got one.

Classic Rocket Air photo of Christian Hosoi

Charles Yeager was a great photographer. He really took some great skateboard pics in the 1970's and '80's. This is another great photo he took of Christian Hosoi doing a Rocket Air at Mount Trashmore Contest in Virginia Beach in 1987.

Stenwheel Regatta 1978 Slalom

This photo of me was taken at the Sternwheel Regatta Contest in 1978 by John Benfield. Benfield was a Professional photographer and skateboarder. The contest was held on Quarrier street in downtown Charleston. Sport Mart sponsored the contest. Check out Matt and Mort Taber on the right of the pic.

My favorite photo

This photo of me was taken by Charles Yeager in 1978 on my home ramp. He was a friend and one of the regulars who skated my ramp in the 1970's and 1980's. He was also a photographer so he always took the best pics. Check out the Alva Tri Logo with Tracker Trucks and Green Kryptonics Wheels

1978 Classic Photo

I found this pic of David Jenkins on my home ramp in 1978. My ramp was Charleston's original skatepark. There were 20 or so skaters there every weekend, and my mom faithfully delivered snacks to all the kids that came to ride. Even the Pepsi Team from California showed up for a session. David (pic) was a regular at the ramp until he was hit by a car while street skating in the neighborhood and ended his skating career.
