OLD PHOTOS OF THE DAY



These photos were taken in August 1985 at the Wallace Civic Center in Fitchburg. The first shot is of Joe Johnson going flat, the other two are of Ron Wilkerson. Rons invert was seriously ridiculous for back then. The event was pretty much a pro demo/show with bank ramps the 1/4 pipe pictured in these, and a bunch of whacky flatland riding. Rons of course gone on and had 2HIP rolling for years too.

OLD PHOTO OF THE DAY

Eric Kovall AKA Man Child ripping the old Nashoba Valley 1/2 pipe sometime around the early 90's. He's riding a modified Barfoot Jon Boyer with a giant Pepsi sticker that he had peeled off the side of a machine to cover the topsheet. That's Eric with Lex at Romes movie premiere sipping suds. Kovall is one of a kind, been down with EB since day one and has been featured in many mags over the years. He's still out there skating a lot and has revived ASS Industries in the last few years.

THINK SNOW?



2010 snowboards from LIB, GNU, and ROXY have already hit the shops. Don't sleep on getting the board you want this winter because for the last three years people finally understood the "magnatraction" technology. LIB went BANANAS and sold out FAST. More boards will be shipping shortly so if this is your thing get crackin'.

OLD PHOTOS OF THE DAY

Todays OPOTD shots I took in Ayer of Peston Maigetter ( mid 90's? ) at the old 9 Victor mini ramp. Preston IS skateboarding pure and simple. Anyone who thinks differently just has no idea what skateboarding is as far as I'm concerned. Prestons been filming for Thrasher for years. Skateboarding and filming has taken him all over the world and back a number of times. His own older films like Justice still hold it down. Here are a few examples of his later productions too...If you think way back he and Chris "Rhino" Rooney, and John " Bacon" Hobbs used to run the Spike and Mike Sick and Twisted Film Festivals around Boston which were a riot. Rhino also lurks and works for Thrasher and KILLS pools.








That's old EB head Joel Oreste on the deck there. The ramp was in Ayer for a while and then moved off to Fitchburg at 2z's house where it was skated for years before giving into mother natures take back program. The house was home to a bunch of old skate heads like VT Talents Dave Wood, Transworlds Joel Muzzey, James and countless couch surfers.
