I've spent the day reading these 10 pages and this: http://www.skateamerica.com/sitemap/content/pages/Doug-Brown-Bio---Skateboarder-5068.html
I'm speechless
Classic Slap as soon as beautifull responds!
that is filled with some of the most quotable material i have ever seen before.
"I had plenty of sunny days as an all American little boy focusing on Star Wars and riding bikes."
"My Harley leather jacket and killer mullet weren't keeping me warm"
"my all time favorite, break-dancing. To this day, I maintain that my days of doing shoulder spins and “the robot” greatly benefited my skateboarding"
"In the summer of 1983 I was obsessed with Michael Jackson" this explains the the child fild demos
"By 1996 and 1997 I was entering several amateur skate competitions, winning many of them, much to my surprise. I skated against guys who were really good, but slammed when they went too big. I stayed with what I knew and gained points for consistency and creativity."
"Once I saw that ramp I was overcome with the craving to just bust out. I ran back to my van and put on everything I had, every pad you could think of. I walked up to the security guard by the ramp and asked her if I could skate. She said it was for invite only, to which I boldly replied that I was Doug Brown and just wanted to ride for a bit."
"I have to say, I caused an instant reaction and within seconds camera guys started taking shots of me. Even the pros seemed to be thinking, “Who the hell is this guy?” " hahahah, im sure thats exactly what they were thinking.
"After the session closed a few kids asked for my autograph, so I played it cool and signed their ball caps."
