Right after Herman grinded the Wilshire 15 first try (at the time, his biggest rail) we drove to Beverley HS. After we got out a van pulled up with Appleyard, Atiba, Arto, Trainwreck, Mouly, Evan Hernandez, and a green haired Ellington.
We all just stopped and watched them skate for about 15 mins until cops kicked us out. Arto went straight into hucking switch 360 flips down the nine but didn’t roll away that day. Mouly fucked up with a first try Ollie down the 9, chugged beers, then immediately went into kick flips down it to which he came a helluva lot closer. At that time Herman had not met Evan yet, introduced himself and was telling him that he just 50ed wilshire. Evan seemed unimpressed. Been said before but Trainwreck was young and had the build of a dude who did a bid in prison.
Appleyard right out of the van no warm up kickflipped the 5 and front boarded the rail. Talked to Atiba, still not doing any other tricks first try nollie flipped the 5 then nollie front boarded the 9 which made it in his part. If you look in the background where he lands down the 5 stair you can see Herman, Matt Allen, and yours truly in the background.
