Frankie Hill is a dental assistant, not a dentist.

Well, still pretty close, do you know if he's still skating and if he still has his portable fly off ramp with him, man he was an all time favorite who's just never mentioned, a total legend that just disappeared
...can't believe this thread brought Donnie Murdo out of the woodwork!

He definitely pioneered going huge on street and the OG bulldog board was sick.  I wish him luck in his career, but I don't know about that Tail Devil stuff....

I think alot of it depends on whether you get a fine arts degree or if you end up with a something else besides that. To me, fine arts degree says either starving artist or art teacher.

ISN'T BRIAN CHUNG A PHYSICIAN NOW?
DOES ANYONE KNOW WHAT KIND?

SKATED THE BBANKS WITH HIM WHEN WE WERE BOTH PRE-MEDS
I lost track of him in Atlanta.  I'd like to know what became of him because he was/is one of the coolest guys I've met through skateboarding.

Ron Allen. Dave Carnie (aqlthough not pro) has one, as does photographer Patrick O'Dell. I'm getting one now. It's a good idea. Or at least it seems to be right now...

Carnie had a board on Whalecock

Thats how I feel.

I think their work progress from doing crits, sharing studio space with others, plus they need to learn the language of the art community. And where you go to school has something to do with the gallery that'll pick you up, networking, and there's always someone in the studio to smoke weed with

But I don't know, I'm probably not even going to see Art School Confidential
