How'd you get to Warner Ave?
Well, a few other avenues around Huntington came first.
Before that I lived in Florida.
What's better about Warner Ave than Florida?
You can skate the ashtray and you can eat Fake Jan's.
What was the longest binge on Warner?
Boulala. It's been going on since birth, I think. Nah, maybe a week at a
time, and then chill for a day.
Who skates the least on Warner Ave?
I can't say that. Well, OK, Jay. Jay Strickland skates the least.
Do you ever feel burdened having a car on Warner Ave?
Sometimes, because the Pissdrunx are just trapped. But it's good to
have a car here.
Where are the musical lines drawn on Warner Ave?
Whatever Ali is blasting in his boom box is kind of what's hot on

Cactus. He's a kid from Liverpool who stayed on Warner Ave. He's a

REATHER
Clockwise from bottom: Out of the cast and into higher tax brackets,
new pro Elissa Steamer walks on walls and slings boards towards the
new millennium. Varial step-around at TSA. Off the boat and ready to
shake shit up on dry land, Mark "Bainesy" Baines sticks a nollie switch
crooks to an OC old reliable. Shane Heyl slices through a switch
noseslide on the big rail at Ocean View while the football team
cheers him on. Fuck it up! Alex Moul profiles alongside the Breather.
Ali Boulala; don't worry, he'll be out by sundown.
