REBEL WRITES...
The rhajority of skateparks and other
such rideable boundaries are on the
verge of obliteration. The proof is positive.
Examples: Cherry Hill Marina, Runway,
Skatopia, Irvine, etc. Which brings me to
the conclusion or hypothesis that the era
of the outlaw skater is making a
resurgence upon the scene. This also
signifies a point in time where the men will
be separated from the clones.
The so-called "establishment" has been
responsible for putting a lot of pressure on
the hardcore skate catz. Most vertical and
banked type spots (if they haven't been
leveled yet) have fences and signs
posting penalty warnings. These
restrictive ordinances always seem to be
located right at the point of which skate
action would assume, for some strange
reason. Well, you can either ignore them
and rip shit anyway or you can go home
and pout. Of course, good little boys and
girls don't break the law. So that leaves
this and any other skate terrain to the rule
of the true skate rebels.
Face it folks, it all started this way and
obviously it is revolving back through the
natura cycle. Underground movements of
skate patrols will set the trends once
again. The territorial instincts as well as
the adventure and mystique are reborn in
these select outlaws. Secrecy is the No. 1
rule.
The surf mags are too cool to be
associated with this kind of an image.
They don't give or know shit about surf
skating. The future is being left up to the
hardcore skate outlaws and what they
find. Only the wise will survive. Busts do
occur, and minimal fines are $500.00 and/
or six months in the brig. Thrasher has a
line on the underground scene and its
activities. The media blitz of old is almost
monopolized. I myself still feel like a
complete revolutionary. Having been
luckier than most, I will continue within my
limits to interrogate any and all skate
areas. Groups of agents with similar plans
do exist.
