I grow up in the 70's and 80's and skate boarding doesn't even register as a activity. Of course there was the occasional getting pulled by a bike,car or motorcycle story using a skate board, but that was usually listed under stupid sh&& you did in some state of boredom or induced stupor.

Well, in Cali & FL., we surfed & skated and for many, it was/is a way of life. Hard to fault someone like Stacy Peralta & the rest of the Z-Boys who took a fad to not only the next level, but created a whole new industry that is still strong today...
