WILD RIDERS OF BOARDSI
My name is Eddy Boy, I ride a
skate. I'm in a skate gang We're
called Zekes. Blade is our leader.
He is mean He don't take no flak
He has one enemy-Nacho Cruz,
the leader of our rivals, El Vatos
dos De Vario X. They like to
Bandidos De\
clash. So do we. Here's our story.
The sun had been up for on
hour already. I was late. My boss
told me if I was late again fd be
conned I quit as of today. Besides

"Edward why don't you have
any respect? What happened to
everything your father and I taught
you? God rest his soul. We gave you
the best of everything, but you
kept breaking everything. Every
thing except those skateboards of
yours d

"I don't know, and don't call me
Edward, it makes me sick. Ma. I'm

Right What she don't
know won't hurt. Wonder if Blade is
awake by now? Maybe we can go
check out the savings and loan
parking lot. Rumors says it's got D.K
Banka, but the only gnarly part
about it is that it's near Vario X
The sidewalks around Blade's
house are totally cool Nice and
wide for slide action and the curbs
are the monorail variety. Curb
grinds forever is the name of the
ride a

like a baton and having it end up
under the arm). I looked around
for witnesses of my above-average

"Did you see it. Blade? Was it very
high? I replied.
"Sheet" He smiled, "at least a
two footer"
Whoah I groaned in disbelief.
"That's gotta be my record height
"That's the Record, Period. No
other Zeke has come close to that
yet
"Bullshit I said with bubbling
modesty. "You're just saying that
