Is this a stab at him always wearing brown pants or is he really working at UPS?

Turned pro for some outdoors style company at the top of this year, krooked definitely wasted some stock on him

Once when I was little I met David Clark and his crew at Louisville Skatepark. He was doing switch frontside salad grinds on the tall flatbar. His friends were older and were really hyping him. He was obviously good. i remembered his name for some reason and it was crazy when he blew up a few years after that. Now he's a "forgotten skater." makes me feel old.

http://skately.com/library/ads/sub-zero-skate-shop-sergei-trudnowski-1996 Sergi was heavy ripper at mid nineties Love Park. I was lucky enough to skate there in 1995, saw him skate he ripped hard all day. Kalis and Stevie gave the spotlight later on but Philly was sick before then check the Sub Zero video link here for raw East Coast Sunday viewing.
Sergi is still skating in Philly currently, nice dude

What did happen to this guy? He ripped and then vanished.

He is still in Philly.  Great dude,  last I saw him was at the Kyber back in the quite a few years back.  He might of drank a bit but definitely wasn't on no blow.

Was watching Real to Reel the other day and I don’t think I ever heard Damian Bravo mentioned after that video.

He had a small part in roll forever. “Always sand from the top, never from the bottom, son.” After that nothin’.
Got me thinking of another short lived real rider Chris Trembley.

I still remember the sample in his song:
“I’m in here for murder, kidnappin’, robbery, armed robbery, I once broke a dudes jaw. I been runnin and shootin the po-lice. I been hit in the head with a hatchet. Everybody shut the fuck up!” Lol anyone know what that’s from?

Sergi is still skating in Philly currently, nice dude


When those “Where are they now?” blog posts were popping off a few years ago I ran into Serge and asked him when he was going to do one and he said he had been approached but didn’t want to do one until he had a little footage or some good current photos.

He’s a rad dude. I used to see him everywhere when he drove the La Colombe truck but haven’t seen him for a bit. Had a nice clip in a Fred Gall video a year or so ago.

That sounds fucking fun.
My sister used to work for Cartoon Network which is the parent company for Adult Swim. I remember walking in the headquarters with her one year and met some people involved with the shows. I met the powerpuff girl creators and the dude behind Space Ghost coast to coast (who was a fucking uniquely awesome guy). The overall work atmosphere thrived on creativity and had a non serious vibe to it. Still cant believe my sis wanted to leave that job

Raven started a towing business and Maldonado was involved with a board company out of NJ/PA called Terror of Planet X?

It is often forgotten how for a while the Euros outclassed the US at tech skating and the industry did its utmost to ignore them. Flo Marfaing, Alex Carolino and Guy Kämpfen were on a whole nother level.

Not sure what he's doing at the moment, but I know for several years he was doing seasonal fishing jobs up in Alaska.

Where as I take your point, do you think you could have selected three examples that did NOT have pro models on American companies?

I wanna play you in a game of SKATE for the right to continue talking shit on me.  You think you got me?

Anyone who has forgotten Wade Speyer needs a good, hard spanking.
I’m just here to suggest that the spanking be delivered with the same force Wade is known to slap his tail with on spine transfers.  Best spine skater ever

My little input to the forgotten skaters: I was watching a video with Damian Smith the other day. Man he was good.



Also nanda zipp, weston correa, Lil Nick Lockman, Jani Laitiala, Gio Moya, Satva Leung, Joey Valdez, Moses Itkonen and Justin Bokma RIP. Great names btw.

Rick jaramillo, matt milligan.

I wondered about caine gayle, turns out hes some sort of mma trainer now.

Also drake jones needs to come back. Outside of penny and carroll, nobody had steeze like drake.

were matt milligan and matt willigan on the same company at some point? am remembering an ad from the 90s making a point of that, but can't remember for sure or if i am tripping and making it up in my head.
