FORTY OUNCE FRIDAYS



-----why does everyone think just cuz we live in sonoma county that we are all a bunch of wino's truth be told there is on one amongst us that has the gift of grape. old guy shredder, mr. ryan zepaltas. this dude hails from the town that brought us good ol' fashion pabst blue ribbon. i guess as time progressed like any skater naturally does. you progress. so ryan took it to the next level by showing all the local wine makers that skaters got some talent on and off the board. check all the goods here.

THE TIME WAS 6 O'CLOCK ON THE SWATCH WATCH



----- i seriously have no clue what made me think of the swatch watch today. cuz those things are super old. the 80's were a crazy time in skateboarding, way before kids got sponsored by huge energy drinks and got to skate contests every year on t.v.......the swatch watch company was one of the few "big time" (no pun intended) companies sponsoring skateboarding at the time. not sure on what it ment to be sponsored by these guys. all i know is that they are a part of 80's skateboarding. you should be able to recognize most of the names.

-----gator "clocking" some ads


----- can you make it past all the craziness to check some 80's skate style?

LIL MOE TAKES ON THE OLD SCHOOL AFTER GRADUATION FROM HIGH SCHOOL.



-----lil' moe just graduated from high school. when i saw him, he told me that he got to go to hawaii for his grad gift. lucky dude right? so anyways, i was telling him. you gotta skate wallows while you are there. it is probably one of top five places you have to skate before you die. i was telling him about the intro to the animal chin video. plus the fact that marlon sent in a forty ounce friday from there. anyways, moe sent in these pics. he told me that it was pretty gnarly. i was stoked. not to many kids these days get schooled in a spot that has been shredded some 20 years ago. congratulations moe, not only did you get your high school diploma. you got your degree in the old school arts.







-----for the rest of us old guys. here is how we remember it.

THE SANTA ROSA BOMB SQUAD



-----i remember when this contest took place. it was the summer of 1995. at the time i was living in ukiah. i was heading on a plane to pennsylvania to work as a camp counselor for 3 months. that same weekend this contest was going off. i was so bummed. i knew not only was i gunna see the local rosa rippers, but top notch guys i have seen in the mags. oh well, at least i was bringing my skateboard out there with me.....anyways about the last couple of weeks of camp, one of the campers brought this issue for me to check out. i was so stoked. those last couple of weeks in the mountains seemed to drag on. everyday i was dreaming of getting to ride the park, knowing that the lines and possibilities were endless. once the plane landed, it was the greatest feeling. over the summer i had set up a place to stay in rosa and that's how my transplant from ukiah to santa rosa began.
