Much as David and Goliath, the fledgling platoon of sk8boarders took on a near insurmountable task, unknowingly entering into the lion's lair of L.A City politics. By 2000 The platoon of sk8rs had grown to company size and had held several protests/sk8board demonstrations to arouse public awareness of their battle for a world class sk8park. The first obstacle on the path to construction turned out to be the L.A Kings Hockey organization of all people. It turned out that the L.A Kings had a back door deal to exchange advertising for venture capitol. Imagine, a City Counsel member's Sr Deputy assistant had plans for an ice hockey and ice skating rink where there was once the very alpha centre of sk8boarding culture. Well, the skaters opposed the Kings/City Counsel deal. A showdown came to head in San Diego at a California Coastal Commission(CCC) hearing in April of 2000. Fortune smiled upon the sk8boarders as the CCC deemed the Kings plans not within the parameters of the CCC requirments. Amazingly the City Council switched sides and supported the construction of a sk8park. This small victory was only the beginning of an incredable series of negotiations, campaining and lobbying that eventually led to the 2009 construction of the only sk8park in America on the sand. The skaters have had direct involvement in every stage of the process on the road to completion of the sk8park including the design and construction." - WORDS BY EG AT SECTOR 9. www.sector9.com.

SURF NEWS
SURFLAND - Upcoming exhibition SurfLand features 40+ tintypes of surfers taken by NY-based photographer, Joni Sternbach. Over the years surfers have been drawn to the unusual sight of Joni's portable darkroom and large format camera perched on the beaches of Montauk, San Diego, and Santa Cruz and have become volunteer/impromptu subjects for her portraits. Her method yields a survey of portraits that express an almost anthropological feel; a subculture of men, women, and children poised with their boards at the edge of the ocean. These luminescent images communicate a compelling magnetism and deep humanity that we are pleased to share with the public in, this, Joni Sternbach's first solo museum exhibition.
