Got to skate with Jeff Phillips and Mike Crum in Dallas all the time on Lombardy. lol, my gfs 16 year old brother is pretty bad ass but hadnt even heard of Santa Cruz or Psycho stix or any of the old shit. Remember when H-street was new-school? I had an El Gato, Oh yeah. That and my Vision double were so good to me.
lol first board-Santa Cruz Jammer followed quickly by the Freddy Smith punk size.
My first stick was a banana board followed by a Jammer with Indy 161 trucks and a set of the original OJ wheels
I had Schmitt Stix Lucero model
Zorlac Craig Johnson dead baby model
Blockhead street as well as a Cunningham model or two
Powell mini rat, Hawk verions 1,3, and 4 Mike Mcgill v 1,2 and a few others
Skull Skates...Hosoi mini hammerhead (the best model he ever had)
and the list goes on but I always rode Indy and a well worn set of German bearings until the caps fell off.
