I don't remember playing much music here, gotta keep the noise down, but never a bust... A blue pool, but not the Blue Pool, somewhere near Reseda and Chase.. Hey, maybe it's still there...

I met Chucky back in '85. He had his factory here in Carpinteria, Ernie DeLost, cranking out the boards, with distribution down in Ventura, sharing a space with Brand X Skateboards. Chuck is the unsung hero of snowboard and skate manufacturing. Designing boards for Sims, before starting his own label. First twin tips, concave skates, beautiful wood, sorry Arbor, even inventing the word... SnoBoard. Check it out... Sims were SkiBoards, Burton was well... Burton Boards, Snurfers well you get the idea... These are not my boards, all though I did design and shape one of them.. I was lucky enough to work with Chuck a few years ago, and snap some shots. This is just the lemon next to the pie... what?
Hey Dude! I scored a couple of Sims Eric Nash scratch offs for 25bones each. Great shape to skate! It's real similar to Vallelys Barnyard. San Antonio has no natural drainage but LOTS of Ditchs! Dig!
Wow a trip down memory lane. I miss the old shop bro. So many good times. Remember the rock shop? And wayne from stussy bringing all the good stuff for lunch.
I forget where I got that kick.... But I bought a Look Lamar off you at the Chatsworth Sector. You used to hook me up even though I skated for gay ass Magna.
