R.I.P Jake Phelps

Without skateboarding, I don't think I would have ever moved after high school to Birmingham. Without moving, I would have not met the friends I have today. Without moving I would have never met my wife, who doesn't mind the craziness and the fact that I still skateboard as an adult, and doesn't mind the fact we invest so much time into motorcycles. Skateboarders look at the world different than most people. It provided a great education on how to be human. If I had never picked up a skateboard, I would have been fucked... We praise Thrasher, not because it's a brand, but for what it stands for. SKATE... OR DIE. Jake Phelps was a celebrity to us, and 100% skateboarder. RIP

Chopped, Stretched, and Sprung

Ran across a guy named Steve in my extensive long search for a Dick Allen springer... This is a pic of his dads 1938 fully sooped up with all the goodies, but unfortunately now gone.
