SUMMER FUN
inaugurated a major snowboard
manager's name to the cops?
Unfortunately for our hero, the
police discovered the bogus ID and
nailed him. The last time this
occurred, the falsely implicated
team manger spent three days with
the DA while he proved his inno-
cence. This time, despite heavy
pressure from the cops to file
charges against the skater/perpe-
trator, the manager merely dropped
the guy from the team.

Tershays, both Schwartzes and six police cars all
doing at Wade Speyer's house on a hot summer
night? They were all helping him celebrate his 21st birth-
day. The kegs were flowing and the anarchy ramp ses-
sions were truly unruly. Other drifters may or may not
have included Al Petersen, Dune, Shawn Martin,
Pierre, Doggin, Brian Chung, Simon and Billy Idol.
In other party news, Andy Roy had
a fourth of July party at his house
and resheeted his vert ramp just for
the occasion. Julien, Hosoi and
Cardiel all had their way with her
and loved it. Later on in the day,
some steroid crazed Bad Boy Club
rejects stormed the party and beat
roof on anyone they wanted. Some
sources say that after the meleé,
they tried riding the ramp and paid
the price with skin.

rumors that Steve Berra may take
his place. Up in Huntington Beach,
John Lucero was still waiting for a
call from Gino lannucci to tell of his

familiar? Even farther north, Danny
Minnick has hooked up with Acme.
Skater/artiste Aaron Rose is
returning to the West Coast in order
