backside 180 kickflips over the hip and switch
frontside kickflips and fakie 360' flips over the
pyramid hip. Not bad for his first pro contest.
Ricky Oyola is a human machine who does not
stop skating for even a second. His qualifying
runs were ill. He switch ollied the bench/ledge
that sat at the base of the bowl quarter-pipe and
continued up the transition to a switch kickflip to
fakie. Rick then proceeded to an ollie to fakie on
the eight-foot quarter-pipe, to a pyramid switch
frontside kicker over the hip, rolled off to the big
bank, 360 flip, kept on truckin', shifty over the
pyramid, etc. The word represent came to mind.
Mike Vallely recently relocated to New Jersey
and he didn't forget to bring his skating along
with him: Pop shove-its on everything, every
which way but loose, carved fakie ollies and
bench nollies at full speed.
Dan Drehobl skated the whole weekend with
a blindfold on and one arm tied behind his back.
He ruled it. Backside 180' the whole pyramid at
Mach 10, up the big bank and brick wall back-
wards most casual. Backside ollie to fakie over
the transition hip, big ol' frontside ollie to fakie
on the eight foot quarter-pipe, switch frontside
pop shove it over the pyramid hip, boneless to
tail on the small quarter. Just to reinforce the
ethic that skateboarding is fun, Dan flew a
frontside boneless from the big bank over the lit-
tle quarter-pipe and landed on the small bank
(throwing in a fingerflip for kicks). Dan has roots
and still made the top ten. Amen.
DC boy Andy Stone put it together with 360°
flips on the big bank, fakie 360 flips caught high
over the pyramid hip, frontside heelflips, and
58TH
smooth skating. Oh, he also backside 180° kick-
flipped a Laz-E-Boy reclining chair.
Jason Dill rode with ease, tossing heelflips and
backside 180's over the pyramid and heelflips
over the bench at speed.
Matt Pailes sheds blood for his skating. One of
his pant legs was nicely caked by Saturday night:
Ollies to fakie everywhere, frontside wallrides
over the big bank, backside heelflips over the
pyramid hip, New England-style.
Props to everyone who showed and skated
their asses off. Other names flow as follows:
Jahmal Wiliams, Scott Johnston, Keith Hufnagel,
Keenan Milton, Phil Shao, Vinny Ponte, Tim
Upson (bad ass!), Dave Duren and all the other
area New Englanders who came to have fun.
Punk out.

equipment, so I took a closer look. It was Salba
working at The Palladium. We said hi. He was
busy and so was I. The crowd looked rough. Lots
of jock type, Danzig tattoo sportin' kooks. "Killer
tan, bro!" SOD and Pantera draw a rough crowd.
The line up went:
1. Stripmind-Shitty, so bad. The worst.
2. The Obsessed-Good old gnarly punkish
rock-n-metal.
3. Entombed-Ripped! This was the best and
biggest show I saw them play.
4. Prong-Takes an acquired taste. Neutral.
5. Pantera-The best thing about Pantera was
them smoking weed on stage. Pantera's pit was
extremely brutal.
6. SOD-They were fucking great. You gotta
love SOD. Everyone went nuts. Huge LA steroids
merchant pit.
The Palladium is enormous, and Entombed
got a full house. During their set, the actual
"Wolverine" of the X-Men was jumping around
through the crowd scaring people, slicing the air
with long phony claws. He was handing out a
never ending supply of Entombed stickers and I
saw girls grabbing his ass left and right.
When Entombed was done, I saw them more
relaxed than ever before. We all boasted and
toasted. On the ride back to the hotel that night
they were raging. Yelling at people from the van,
"Hey! Metal mama! Do you like metal?" By this
time I felt like I had known them for years. After
a 3:00 am drunken meal at Denny's, we crawled
to our hotel rooms and passed out.
I woke up just in time to say goodbye and
gave them all the Hellride handshake, which they
dug on. Nicke said that he still wants to ride a
skateboard. "Next time," he said, and indeed I
do look forward to the next time Entombed
comes to my town.
