What A Blast! John S took the bowl at skate city apart!

He did look like a girl though with the long hair! I bet he has F--k all now like the rest of us now.

atv2, i told you awhile back that i thought john sablosky was dead... a lot of people thought that too. turns out, i found out recently that he's living well and happy with his wife and kid in san francisco...

Nah yous are a bucnh of southern jessies, Liverpool was where it rocked, Edge Lane with the biggest steel (yes steel pipes and ramps) provided by the council, plus a little bowl, which was where the like of Stefan Harkon and Neil Danz (Danzi) used to practice,

Danzi owns his own skate company and tours the world with his half pipe, (he must be pushing mid to late 40s buts can still shred it up.
