  • eelroy

    eelroy

    love how brand new his set up is not a mark on the nose yet
    gotta love a brand new set up

  • Bill Fonseca replied

    Hi eelroy, there is a story to why he is using a brand new setup. His scratched up board got stollen 24 hrs before the main event. That just shows there are still some low lifes hanging around to spoil the day. He had to borrow, wheels, bearings, trucks from the Aussie skaters as he had about 4 decks. Thanks for looking.
