Man, that's killer! Pleasure to meet you, Curtis!
So cool...I'm chattin' with a legend!

Wow! Those guys and you, @CURTIS L LINDGREN are legendary in the skateboarding scene! Growing up in So Cal you guys were our heros!
Being a kid in the 70's in Rochester NY, I really wasn't exposed to all of the cool SoCal stuff, but remember them when I was a teenager skating everyting I could in Tucson, AZ...

This chat made my day!

Awsome!! In 1973 ish, I nailed myself to a skateboard and didn't step off until '80. In the early days it was all about freestyle and, Curtis, I recognize every name of your team members.( even non skaters knew Ty's name) Just like the rest of the skating world, I put away the freestyle stuff when Skateboarder Mag. picked upon the Dogtown, pool, surf-style scene. Now I'm 58 and I go from time to time to local skateparks and carve the bowls, happy with the occasional 50/50. Skateboarding has been and is a part of who I am and people like Curtis helped make that true for me (and thousands more) without ever knowing..

Well said!
 
A bit of the collection display at Panchos surf shop in good Ole Pismo Beach Cali.
Now that's what I call interior decorating ! 😁 It's pretty cool when you can see a good collection of old skateboards . The progression from steel wheels to clay wheels and then to urethane wheels really opened up the possibilities of what could be done on a skateboard . @A.S.BOLTNUT How lucky you were to be in the Pismo beach area . If you grew up there , I bet that was a great time to experience the "California" lifestyle. 👍 My uncle is an artist , and the largest of all his paintings is titled " A day at Pismo" The painting is about 6' X 6' and it is just a very relaxing and almost surrealistic view of people on the beach and the ocean in the background. I want that painting and always have. Unfortunately my Mother is super attached to it and won't let it go. 🤨 Ok , back on subject ! The last skateboard I had was a 48" Donald Takayama longboard good for carving and cruising mostly. I had not skated for many years when I got this. I rode it for about a year -then sold it. The guy who bought it HAD TO HAVE it , as he said. I still have a few of the boards from the old days , but tend to not ride those. Here's a few pictures of the D.T. 4 footer . Skate Safe Guys !
