TIME MACHINE
True style will never be stale. From a hand down slash to a wind up grind, the
intensity of the moment, if captured on film, will live for eternity. This page is for all
those who have gone unnoticed and unregistered. Clockwise from above. When the
English skate invasion happened in the late eighties, Bod Boyle was at the front of the
pack and burning down all the ramps. At the Kennedy warehouse Bod was at his peak
and loving it. The hand down backside Smith was but one of his guns in his multi-faceted

own gang of gnarlers. At the front of the street pack was John Thomas who was
known far and wide for his frontside tweakers. From billboards on Sunset Boulevard to
the depths of Santa Monica. JT could bust it anywhere. This one happens to be from the
summer of 1989. Every once in a while someone will come along that was very good.
got hooked up and then quit like it meant nothing to them. Tony Henry was one of those
kind of people. Ahead of his time and way stylish. Tony made it all look easy. This
frontside nosegrind in the spring of 1990 at Fort Mason is bad ass.
