JUICE MAGAZINE NOTABLE QUOTABLES:<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\u201cI never missed a day of high school in four years, although I was uncooperative\u2026 very uncooperative.\u201d – JOHNNY RAMONE of THE RAMONES – Nov 1993 Juice Magazine #1 by Scott Daniel Ellison<\/p>\n

\u201cIn politics and dealing with the media, the government, whatever, you have to understand that it\u2019s the system we have to fight. The men behind the system are just that: human beings that suffer the same short comings of everyone else. It is the laws and the system that we have to mentally and spiritually prepare ourselves to overcome. We have to probe the minds of the enemy and understand them to conquer them. The youth are ready! Rise up! The time has come for a revolution!\u201d – BAD BRAINS\u00a0 <\/span>– Nov 1993 Juice Magazine #1 by Alecia Mitchell<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re not a political act, we don\u2019t try to beat anybody over the head with how we feel about certain things. We like to put out slammin\u2019 records and dope tracks. We don\u2019t devote whole songs to a social problem; we just mention it little by little, drop a little bit of bait and a little bit of candy. That gives us a mystique.\u201d – TRIBE CALLED QUEST – Dec 1993 Juice Magazine #2 by Mark Duong<\/p>\n

\u201cWe make boards for size of wave and not for where they break, as waves vary at each break of the world, going faster at low tide, slower at high tide. Each wave of every set is different, so our boards are made the same for a 2-foot wave on the East or West Coast as well as Hawaii.\u201d – GARY LINDEN – Dec 1993 Juice Magazine #2 by Roy Turner<\/p>\n

\u201cBe true to yourself and don\u2019t limit yourself. Eat at Cheddar\u2019s. Props to East Coast pros and remember where you\u2019re from.\u201d – JAHMAL WILLIAMS – Jan 1994 Juice Magazine #3 by Pat Noonan<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s not that we believe in ourselves\u2026 We just don\u2019t believe in anyone else.\u201d – Maynard Keenan, TOOL – Feb 1994 Juice Magazine #4 by Alecia Mitchell<\/p>\n

\u201cI want peace, but I\u2019m also prepared for war. Don\u2019t just philosophize about stopping violence. Stop it. I\u2019m not non-violent, then again I\u2019m not violent. I am intelligent.\u201d – KRS-1 – Feb 1994 Juice Magazine #5 by Michael Lawton<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you love something, it can\u2019t be taken from you. Whether it\u2019s a person, object or anything you do. As far as the industry goes, we\u2019re running it. We\u2019re the kids, you know. What you buy into, you buy into and what you don\u2019t, you don\u2019t. Cause we\u2019re running shit and it\u2019s not an industry, so stop blaming the industry and get off your ass and make a difference.\u201d – SCOTT BOURNE – Feb \u201894 Juice Magazine #5 by Chris Feasel<\/p>\n

\u201cMusic, quite simply, is sex.\u201d – DICK DALE – Apr. 1994 Juice Magazine #6 by Alecia Mitchell<\/p>\n

\u201cThe only thing I want to intoxicate me is life.\u201d – JOHN JOSEPH – THE CRO-MAGS – Nov 1994 Juice Magazine #13 by John Cowell<\/p>\n

\u201cAll you bitches out there who want to be hard and listen to rap music and shit all the time, you should go out and buy a Cranberries tape\u2026 fuckin\u2019 punks.\u201d – CHET CHILDRESS – Apr 1994 Juice Magazine #6 by Chris Feasel<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you\u2019re a true surfer, you ride the waves, the ocean doesn\u2019t lie, you paddle out and you confront the waves. There\u2019s a truth there that\u2019s misguided because people are so caught up in the images they see in the media. People need to get back into the brotherhood. The spirit. And let your surfing do the talking!\u201d – BILL CURRY – Apr 1994 Juice Magazine #6 by Armando<\/p>\n

\u201cI just refuse to give anyone else power. There is no one who can make my life better or worse, and that\u2019s the bottom line. If you think there is someone who can control your life, then you better evaluate yourself.\u201d – MIKE MUIR – May 1994 Juice Magazine #7 by Alecia Mitchell<\/p>\n

\u201cSurfing is a very individual sport. You can go out and still be very graceful and have very radical maneuvers included in your session, or you can just go out there and totally try to kill everything in sight. Surfing is just what you want it to be. You can be an individual in a very crowded world.\u201d – WILL ALLISON – Jun 1994 Juice Magazine #8 by Walker Golder<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m the type of motherfucker who will go to your house, smoke your pot, eat your chicken and borrow twenty dollars from you. I do that shit a lot of the time.\u201d – GEORGE CLINTON – July 1994 Juice Magazine #9 by Michael Lawton<\/p>\n

\u201cI have this paranoid delusion that one day we are going to get a visit from some guy in a dark suit and sunglasses, who is going to tell us that we have gone too far.\u201d – BIOHAZARD – July 1994 Juice Magazine #9 by Alecia Mitchell<\/p>\n

\u201cWe were in the movie Skateboarding.\u201d I had to teach Leif Garrett how to skate. He didn\u2019t like me. He thought I was a low-life. I thought he was a Tiger Beat star and a candy ass and he thought he was the shit.\u201d – TONY ALVA – July 1994 Juice Magazine #9 by Robbie Rhyne<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m not going to fight the system at all. I ignore them. They don\u2019t exist – a bunch of blowhard, do-nothing turd factories.\u201d – THE MEAT PUPPETS – Sept 1994 Juice Magazine #11 – by Alecia Mitchell<\/p>\n

\u201cWe want to get people to think and to listen to the lyrics. I take pride in writing lyrics that don\u2019t just say, \u2018Baby, I love you,\u2019 all the time.\u201d – STEEL PULSE – Oct 1994 Juice Magazine #12 by Tony Jenzano<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s up to us to get past the stigmas that have been placed on our generation. Our generation has been plagued with the dilemma of having the cost of living so far exceeding the limit anyone can make, regardless of their degree or knowledge of a craft. We are so limited. The gap between our ways and means is more separated than it ever has been in the whole history of American culture. So you have to go out there and do what makes you happy. You aren\u2019t truly free if you don\u2019t do what you love with your life.\u201d – BEN HARPER – Nov 1994 Juice Magazine #13 by Alecia Mitchell<\/p>\n

\u201cI got started in the industry by accident. Skip who does S.M.A., Santa Monica Airlines, showed me where to get boards made one day and that was about it. I started making boards, but I never thought I\u2019d have a company.\u201d – STEVE ROCCO – Nov 1994\u00a0 <\/span>Juice Magazine #13 by Chris Feasel<\/p>\n

\u201cHardcore is about dignity and honor. It\u2019s not bubblegum tunes about chicks.\u201d – DOWNSET – Dec 1994 Juice Magazine #14 by John Healy<\/p>\n

\u201cThey want to preach up a storm about how everything is terrible now: i.e. rock music is destroying our children, thus we exist. I am everything they could hate just to spite them. But at the same time, my point is, \u201cWhy is your way the right way? Why isn\u2019t mine the right way?\u201d – MARILYN MANSON – Dec 1994 Juice Magazine #14 by Alecia Mitchell<\/p>\n

\u201cCourtney [Love] just said that the first time she ever took coke, it was with me. But it wasn\u2019t: it was Pepsi. Anyway, it wasn\u2019t true. It just shows you where some people are at.\u201d – MICK JONES – Feb 1995 Juice Magazine #15 by Alecia Mitchell<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s like every four or five years, hardcore goes through a cleansing, a dull period, and that\u2019s what happened a couple of years ago. Now the bands are starting to get good again and they\u2019re revitalizing the scene, making kids wanna come out to the shows.\u201d – CIV – Mar 1995 Juice Magazine #16 by John Cowell<\/p>\n

\u201cSid Abruzzi is God!\u201d- Gail Greenwood – BELLY – Mar 1995 Juice Magazine #16 by Alecia Mitchell<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you can make billions of dollars, you deserve to keep that and you shouldn\u2019t have to share it with everybody else that doesn\u2019t get their ass out of bed every fuckin\u2019 morning. Period.\u201d – LEE VING of FEAR – Mar 1995 Juice Magazine #16 by Jeff Jobes<\/p>\n

\u201cI admire people who instinctually stand up for what they believe in. That\u2019s a powerful quality.\u201d – QUICKSAND – Apr 1995 Juice Magazine #17 by Alecia Mitchell<\/p>\n

\u201cThere\u2019s an element of absurdity in what we do. I just think that humanity is pretty entertaining, so the lyrics are satirical, not condescending, but definitely vague. I mean, they are pretty substantial. It\u2019s just never really clear as to what I am talking about, but that\u2019s only because I don\u2019t know myself.\u201d – CLUTCH – June 1995 Juice Magazine #18 by Alecia Mitchell<\/p>\n

\u201cI think it\u2019s funny to be called the Grandfathers of Grunge. I\u2019m actually still too young to be a grandfather. But there are people at our shows that I could potentially be their father.\u201d – MARK ARM of MUDHONEY – July 1995 Juice Magazine #19 by Alecia Mitchell<\/p>\n

\u201cAfter this Saturday, we\u2019re going to jump into a bus with some other bands and cruise around the country on this skateboard thing, which I think is called Warped or some shit like that.\u201d – BRAD HOWELL of SUBLIME – July 1995 Juice Magazine #19 by Fishbowl Dave<\/p>\n

\u201cTaylor Steele pretty much made us what we are today. Having our songs on the Momentum II video really helped us.\u201d – FLETCHER of PENNYWISE – July 1995 #19 by Keith Byers<\/p>\n

\u201cRecords are way different from CDs. We put extra songs on vinyl that aren\u2019t on the tape or cassette. CDs are stupid, they cost half as much to make and cost twice as much to buy, Our covers are very retro and very thrown back. They look like they\u2019ve fallen off a shelf at a thrift store. I do all of the art. Support vinyl!\u201d – O of FLUF Aug 1995 Juice Magazine #20 by Lynn Bowman<\/p>\n

\u201cWe just like to enjoy ourselves, in general, whether it\u2019s music or artwork or watching The Simpsons.\u201d – LES CLAYPOOL of PRIMUS – Oct 1995 Juice Magazine #21 by Kassi Day and Alecia Mitchell<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat good is being a Vegan if you\u2019re an asshole?\u201d – RAY CAPPO of SHELTER – Oct \u201895 Juice Magazine #21 by John Cowell<\/p>\n

\u201cWe absolutely refused to play the stupid high school popularity games and a lot of our early songs comment on that. I guess our earliest ambition was to annoy the hell out of all the people in school who treated us like shit.\u201d – MILO AUKERMAN of\u00a0 <\/span>THE DESCENDENTS – Oct 1995 Juice Magazine #21 by Charles Glover<\/p>\n

\u201cThere weren\u2019t that many rights that day. I guess I wanted to go right really bad, so I just got all crazy and went in the air. That was a miller flip.\u201d – BEN BOURGEOIS – Oct 1995 Juice Magazine #21 by Mark and Gibber<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve always felt like an outsider my whole fuckin\u2019 life, except when I got into the punk scene. It\u2019s like a batch full of freaks, so I fit in pretty good.\u201d – MAT FREEMAN of RANCID – Dec 1995 Juice Magazine #22 by Spike<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Clash did a lot of stuff on foreign policy, but to be honest with you I was just like every other person that was sedated with a blanket over their eyes and I was like that for a long time until I got out of high school. I was in the same boat as a lot of kids who really didn\u2019t realize how fucked up things were. I didn\u2019t know there were people out there with different ideas and views.\u201d – BRAD WILK of RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE – Mar 1996 Juice Magazine #24 by Ed Calhoun<\/p>\n

\u201cSome people fear that hip hop is turning for the worst, but I feel hip hop has always emulated life. It\u2019s just that, life is deteriorating, and family values and morals are just deteriorating too. That\u2019s the reason why hip hop is looking like it\u2019s messed up, but there are a few conscious people who are gonna be die-hards like us, The Fugees, Roots or the Boogie Down Productions, Public Enemy and Chuck D\u2026 diehards to the end.\u201d –\u00a0 <\/span>ALI of A TRIBE CALLED QUEST – Nov 1996 Juice Magazine #30 by John Zawadzinski<\/p>\n

\u201cPunk rock or grunge or what have you obscures the fact that it\u2019s just rock n roll. It\u2019s an idiom that started in America and took over the world.\u201d – KARL ALVAREZ of THE DESCENDENTS – Feb 1997 Juice Magazine #31 by Charles Glover<\/p>\n

\u201cWe don\u2019t pretend that we are anything more than we were when we started. It\u2019s a high profile tour with a low profile attitude.\u201d – KEVIN LYMAN [creator of WARPED TOUR} – Aug 1997 Juice Magazine #34 by Ron Strauss<\/p>\n

\u201cThis guy thought he was Nikki Sixx. He got every single tattoo Nikki got, cut his hair like Nikki\u2019s, changed his name to Nikki, then took Nikki to court to prove he was an impostor. So Nikki went to court and met this guy who just basically wanted to meet him and dropped the case.\u201d – MOTLEY CRUE\u2019S, Tommy Lee on the craziest thing a fan ever did. – Aug 1997 Juice Magazine #34<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s funny, Everyone used to talk about DIY, and I never knew what the fuck that meant. I thought it meant Drunk Youth or something. For us, it was a situation back when we started, there was no one else that was gonna do it. So of course we had to do it.\u201d – MIKE MUIR of SUICIDAL TENDENCIES – Oct 1997 Juice Magazine #35 by Tom Hazaert<\/p>\n

\u201cI can\u2019t remember how we came up with the name except that it was inspired by the Kinks. At the time, we hadn\u2019t heard punk rock, not even the Ramones. We just wanted the name to be like a gang, where everyone\u2019s a Cramp.\u201d – POISON IVY of THE CRAMPS – Oct 1997 Juice Magazine #35 by Lisa Hill<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t think anybody has a clue in the record business about what makes a hit record. And if anybody did, then everyone would have a hit record.\u201d – PAGE HAMILTON OF HELMET – Oct 1997 Juice Magazine #35 by Ron Strauss<\/p>\n

\u201cThe main thing in life for you to do is to make as many friends as you can. The more friends you have, the better. The more friends you have ensures that when you die you have made yourself a reservation for a good seat. That\u2019s how I feel about it. I want that good seat.\u201d – JANE\u2019S ADDICTION – Dec 1997 Juice Magazine #36 by Lisa Hill<\/p>\n

\u201cThe punkest thing a band can do is look around their scene and their lives and say, \u201cOkay, what can we do different? How do we make this our own?\u201d – H20 – Dec 1997 Juice Magazine #36 by Shawn Murphy<\/p>\n

\u201cAC\/DC is the epitome of rock and roll. In the last 25 years, they\u2019ve put out the same record 15 times and it works. It\u2019s loud, it pisses the right people off, and the right people dig it.\u201d – FU MANCHU – Dec 1997 Juice Magazine #36 by Robert Braswell<\/p>\n

\u201cI do think hip hop is that dope. Now it\u2019s become culture, it\u2019s life. It\u2019s real life. Why deny it? I\u2019d rather accept more than deny more.\u201d – BIG PUN – Apr 1998 Juice Magazine #38 by Mazi Gaillard<\/p>\n

\u201cGrab your board and go to the closest park and get encouraged by seeing skaters ripping. You\u2019ll figure it out real quick. And forget the street violence and gang bullshit. Go grind some coping. That\u2019s aggressive.\u201d – ANDY KESSLER – Apr 1998 Juice Magazine #38 by Jim Murphy<\/p>\n

\u201cBasically, I had to convince a bunch of politicians to rent a 100-year-old historical landmark to a 25-year-old tattoo artist.\u201d TURTLE of CASINO SKATEPARK – June 1998 Juice Magazine #39 by Jim Murphy and Terri Craft<\/p>\n

\u201cI grew up living in Carolina Beach and there ended up being a skatepark right there called the Ramp House. I weaseled my way into sweeping the floors every day so I could skate there for free. Through there, I met tons of good people that came through all the time like Tony Alva, Sluggo, Rick Howard and Christian Hosoi. It was sick.\u201d – CHET CHILDRESS – June 1998 Juice Magazine #39 by Jim Murphy<\/p>\n

\u201cFavorite skate spots? There\u2019s so many: Stone Edge, the Turf, definitely Burnside, Lansdowne, Kona, The Nude Bowl, Basic Pool, Phillyside, and Edgewood Bowl. Better not forget Edgewood Bowl. (RIP)\u201d – BRAD JESEK – Dec 1998 Juice Magazine #42 by Daylin Louderback<\/p>\n

On underground full pipes. \u201cWe\u2019re padding up and we hear this raging fucking noise, so we started freaking out. My friend was stressing so hard that he pissed his pants. We thought it was water raging through the pipe. We thought we were going down the big Kahuna or something. Then out of nowhere it just stopped. It freaked us out, but we felt so alive. It was one of the best sessions I\u2019ve ever had.\u201d –\u00a0 <\/span>SHAGGY – Dec 1998 Juice Magazine #42 by Jim Murphy<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you like going really fast and busting airs, then skate vert. If you want to get technical and flip your board and do crooked grinds then that\u2019s street. I say why not skate it all? You can\u2019t limit yourself to any one aspect of anything. If you do, then it just gets boring.\u201d – MOSES ITKONEN – Mar 1999 Juice Magazine #43 by Dan Levy<\/p>\n

\u201cI always like to try new stuff. I like to skate as fast as I can and do stuff that feels good to me. Most people go down handrails. I like to go up them.\u201d – TIM BRAUCH – Mar 1999 Juice Magazine #43 by Dan Levy<\/p>\n

\u201cIn 1998, I moved to Encinitas to build the YMCA park with Tim Payne. I sold everything I had, drove my truck to Encinitas and lived out of my truck in the YMCA parking lot for 4 months.\u201d – JEFF THRUSH – May 1999 Juice Magazine #44 by Jim Murphy<\/p>\n

\u201cWe tagged along with Pearl Jam to the White House. They split us up and they got the better tour. I mean they got to meet the president. I was actually disturbed, y\u2019know.

\u201cAt EMB, I\u2019ve gotten arrested, slammed on the ground like I had robbed somebody or sold drugs or something, and sat in the tank for five hours and had my skateboard confiscated. They released me all the way across town, but I still go back there and skate. I\u2019m pretty rebellious.\u201d – MIKE YORK – July 1999 Juice Magazine #45 by Dave Barranco<\/p>\n

\u201cI like to skate obscure stuff. I try to look around for stuff that no one else is skating.\u201d – TINO RAZO – Nov 1999 Juice Magazine #47 by Andy Kessler<\/p>\n

\u201cA good pool is sacred and won\u2019t last forever. Respect your spots and they will last.\u201d – DAVE REUL – Nov 1999 Juice Magazine #47 by Pat Myers<\/p>\n

\u201cWe got chased out and went to the Rabbit Hole, which is really steep and vertical. One of my friends broke his ankle the first day he rode there. It was a really nasty way to start riding pools, but it was so awesome watching Tony doing upside-down off-the-lips. Then we just got into making boards out of necessity since there were really no good boards around. Then I started drawing on them. I drew on everything.\u201d – WES HUMPSTON – Nov 1999 Juice Magazine #47 by Andy Kessler and Jim Murphy<\/p>\n

\u201cMost personal fun? Skating the concrete ramp in front of P.O.P. while Dick Dale, Ritchie Valens and the Crossfires played at the Aragon Ballroom. Fishing for rats through the knot holes in the pier decking. Skating pools and ponds after the Bel Air fire. Riding the long off-ramps of the 10 freeway before it opened and skating into the traffic on the operational 405.\u201d – C.R. STECYK III\u00a0 <\/span>– Feb 2000 Juice Magazine #48<\/p>\n

\u201cBest thing about growing up in Venice\u2026 The surf and skate scene started there. Tom Blake built the first modern production boards in Venice at Thomas Rogers factory in the early \u201830s. Pete Petersen who was far and away the greatest all around waterman anywhere worked out of Santa Monica Pier crafting stuff like all fiberglass boards in \u201847. The Malibu crew led by Bob Simmons, Joe Quigg and Matt Kivlin built the first balsa and fiberglass boards in the late \u201840s. Dave Sweet made a polystyrene and epoxy board in 1947 and later crafted the first polyurethane production boards in the early \u201850s. Velzy who was on the peninsula in the \u201850s became the world\u2019s largest manufacturer. Those guys invented the surfboard shapes and construction that are still the standard one in use today. Even the Hawaiians began using the Malibu styled surfboards.\u00a0 The skate thing came out of that same surf clique. Skipper Boy was the first guy I ever saw or heard of that had people paying him to build custom skates. A couple of years later in \u201863 Larry Stevenson started Makaha and Surf Guide Magazine. He also patented the kick tail.\u00a0 Baby Dave Rochlen defected from Makaha a little later and they did Hobie with the Hilton\u2019s dad. It was a close knit tight scene. It still is. The industry, the media, the moves, all of it came from there.\u201d – C.R. STECYK III – Feb 2000 Juice Magazine #48<\/p>\n

\u201cI was just another one of those groms seeing Venice in the magazines and I knew that\u2019s where I wanted to be. I wanted to be in the mix too. I came out in \u201889 from Hawaii and the thing I like most about Venice is la familia. They take you in under their wing and you got a whole family of people that will protect you, clothe you and feed you; it\u2019s family.\u201d – UHURU – Feb 2000 Juice Magazine #48<\/p>\n

\u201cMy main influences for surfing and skating were Jay Adams, Gramps, Paul Cullen and Arthur Lake.\u201d – POLAR BEAR – Feb 2000 Juice Magazine #48<\/p>\n

\u201cIf I had a choice \u2013 to rip off a pinkie finger, to give me the power to grind the 12.5\u2019 wall of the Pavilion \u2013 I\u2019d do it again.\u201d – AARON MURRAY – Feb 2000 Juice Magazine #48<\/p>\n

\u201cPunk rock means fuckin\u2019 just tearin\u2019 shit up, not following anybody\u2019s rules and doing what you want to do.\u201d – JAY ADAMS – Feb 2000 Juice Magazine #48 by Heidi Fitzgerald<\/p>\n

\u201cI hope skateboarding can be a thing that rebellious guys do forever, not the thing that your Mom and Dad want you to do.\u201d – JAY ADAMS – Feb 2000 Juice Magazine #48 by Heidi Fitzgerald<\/p>\n

\u201cMike Smith did admit privately to Losi that Losi did invent the Smith grind, but he said to him, \u2018Don\u2019t take it. I\u2019ll give you one of the grabs. You can have the stalefish if you want.\u201d – SLOPPY SAM – Feb 2000 Juice Magazine #48 by Merk and Murf<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen we walked on stage and played the first song, the lighting rack goes down, a mike stand gets chucked into somebody\u2019s head and the bouncer\u2019s nose gets broken in the space of one minute.\u201d – JACK GRISHAM of T.S.O.L. – Feb 2000 Juice Magazine #48 by Dirty Joe and Mikey Samuelson<\/p>\n

\u201cThe only thing that\u2019s been true to me is my skateboard. It doesn\u2019t talk back and it gets the anger out.\u201d – DUANE PETERS – May 2000 Juice Magazine #49 by Gish<\/p>\n

\u201cI am trying to stay committed to the idea of the underground. I don\u2019t want to just polish up this gift and sell it to somebody. I\u2019m trying to keep it in good shape, so it can be handed off to someone else.\u201d – IAN MACKAYE – July 2000 Juice Magazine #50 by Jim Murphy<\/p>\n

\u201cI think skateboarding is a way for people to reassess and redefine everything around them. So, for me it was the perfect segue into punk rock because to me punk rock was like reassessing and redefining everything around you. It was like looking at what\u2019s given, looking at if it can be used, how it can be used and whether it\u2019s any damn good to begin with.\u201d – IAN MACKAYE – July 2000 Juice Magazine #50 by Jim Murphy<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m talking about punk rock as a revolutionary idea or a rebellious idea. Like here\u2019s something that\u2019s punk rock – FDR Skatepark in Philly. That\u2019s punk rock.\u201d – IAN MACKAYE – July 2000 Juice Magazine #50 by Jim Murphy<\/p>\n

\u201cWe did this gig in San Pedro at a place called Dancing Waters. It was a really crazy club in a really crappy neighborhood. While we were on, there was this kid right in front going off and all of a sudden he jumped up and bit me on the arm. And I cracked him. I started yelling \u2018Who bit me?!!\u2019 Someone said, that was Jay Adams. I ran out in the crowd and I was like \u2018Are you Jay Adams? and he screamed back \u2018Yeah!\u2019 and I said \u2018You bit me! \u2018and he was like Yeah!! You rock!\u2019 I was so honored.\u201d – IAN MACKAYE – July 2000 Juice Magazine #50 by Jim Murphy<\/p>\n

\u201cAdrenaline junkies, we got some micro geneticists, computer geeks, and of course some high school flunkies. We didn\u2019t all go to the same school or make the same grades, but we know where the best best bowls are and the great days to skate. So don\u2019t miss out on the designated days. Could be anywhere from Daytona to PA, we got Peanuts, we got Buttons and Cheeks, In Carolina, there\u2019s a keyhole, In Ohio, there\u2019s the beast, just to mention a few, not to say the least. So come on over to the East and we\u2019ll show you how adrenaline\u2019s done, where it ain\u2019t about glamour, just excitement and fun.\u201d – CRAZY JOE – July 2000 Juice Magazine #50 by Pat Myers<\/p>\n

\u201cI think calling Skatopia the Woodstock of Skateboarding is a little too obvious to actually say, cuz everyone is coming here to go to war and they\u2019re not really interested in peace.\u201d – SLOPPY SAM – July 2000 Juice Magazine #50 by Pat Myers<\/p>\n

\u201cSkating has changed my life in a very positive way. It has given me a focus in life that is pure and the determination to do things positive. It is my lifestyle it has affected more than anything. I wouldn\u2019t change it for all the money or power in the universe!\u201d – TONY ALVA – July 2000 Juice Magazine #50<\/p>\n

\u201cI was taking a test in history class in 10th grade and my test paper had a bunch of sketches of the Keyhole Pool and tons of lines drawn in. The teacher snatched up my paper and said, \u201cMr. Olson, this is not history! And I said, \u201cNo, no yet.\u201d I was already making more money skateboarding than she was making as a teacher.\u201d – STEVE OLSON – July 2000 Juice Magazine #50 by Jim Murphy<\/p>\n

\u201cHBD is a complex disease, but the main symptoms start with a lack of motivation, unless it\u2019s possible paparazzi and big time financial gain are involved.\u201d – DAVE REUL – July 2000 Juice Magazine #50 by Brewce Martin and Dan Levy<\/p>\n

\u201cI was picked Skateboarder of the Year. I picked my nose. I slung my boogers. T.A. threw his trophy in the trash. We didn\u2019t care. Next thing you know, our popularity was even bigger than ever. \u201c – STEVE OLSON – July 2000 Juice Magazine #50 by Jim Murphy<\/p>\n

\u201cPunk Rock. The explosion had started. The underground art scene and all the punkers. I felt like I could be anything I wanted.\u201d – STEVE OLSON – July 2000 Juice Magazine #50 by Jim Murphy<\/p>\n

\u201cWe brought punk to the masses through skateboarding. I don\u2019t give a fuck what anyone tells you.\u201d – STEVE OLSON – July 2000 Juice Magazine #50 by Jim Murphy<\/p>\n

\u201cI have a dope little street skating kid named, Alexander. He\u2019s a bomb little artist. He\u2019s going to be some kid to reckon with in the skateboarding scene. His dedication is sick, he\u2019s nice, he\u2019s got manners but he also knows how to be a motherfucker.\u201d – STEVE OLSON – July 2000 Juice Magazine #50 by Jim Murphy<\/p>\n

\u201cThe amazing thing is that we do so much with our lives and we are such an amazing animal. We\u2019re the only animal on Earth that leaves a trace of what we did and what we tried to build. We have our faults and I find human beings cruel and ghastly in a lot of ways, and yet wonderful in other ways. It\u2019s the capturing of the moments of their history, their faces, the things they\u2019ve been through that I love.\u201d – BRUCE FLEMING – July 2000 Juice Magazine #50 by Robin Fleming<\/p>\n

\u201cLet me start by saying, I\u2019m utterly disgusted with the former members of Dead Kennedys. I can\u2019t believe they would turn around and piss on everything the band stood for and reveal themselves to be such utterly greedy and rotten people. Basically, they sued the shit out of me. What triggered the falling out was my refusal to let \u201cHoliday in Cambodia\u201d be used in a Levis commercial – Dockers, no less. I mean, to me, that would be the worst possible stab in the back I could give to everybody who\u2019s supported our music and the vision behind it all these years.\u201d – JELLO BIAFRA – July 2000 Juice Magazine #50 by Ray Flores<\/p>\n

\u201cThere were all these rich guys meeting call girls and I was singing \u201cImagine there\u2019s no people\u201d wishing that there were no people, at least not these people.\u201d – JOHN DOE – July 2000 Juice Magazine #50 by Robin Fleming<\/p>\n

\u201cIf your life is all fucked up, then at least you wrote a song about it, that\u2019s something. The chaos and the unhappiness will go away, but the song will live forever.\u201d – JOHN DOE – July 2000 Juice Magazine #50 by Robin Fleming<\/p>\n

\u201cYou should have seen the faces of the parents of the girls we took out when we pulled up to their houses in a rotten wood-paneled Woody with a bed in the back.\u201d – MIKE DOYLE – July 2000 Juice Magazine #50 by Brian Lentini<\/p>\n

\u201cDora put a cherry bomb down the theatre toilet and blew the shit out of it. Radical, I couldn\u2019t believe anyone could be so brave and foolish.\u201d\u00a0 <\/span>– MIKE DOYLE – July 2000 Juice Magazine #50 by Brian Lentini<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019d rather be a competitor, because icons are over. By the very nature of an icon, it\u2019s dead. I don\u2019t want to be dead. I ain\u2019t fucking dead. I\u2019m alive motherfuckers, deal with it.\u201d – LEMMY KILMiSTER of MOTORHEAD – July 2000 Juice Magazine #50 by Robin Fleming<\/p>\n

\u201cI thought The Damned were more punk than The Pistols. The Pistols were like a vacation band. Steve was a failed burglar. Rotten was that kid that you wouldn\u2019t let your kids play with. Sid was just a fucking mess, Sid was doomed from the beginning. Cooksie just wanted to play, like Ringo, but he was a good drummer. But The Damned were like loonies. Dave used to walk around in that vampire outfit, with his wife dressed in what looked like cobwebs. I remember him standing with the silver-topped cane, three-piece velvet suit with the purple inside the cloak, the patent leather pumps, and the hair with the streak in it, with women falling about. I said \u201cDon\u2019t move Dave. I just want to remember this.\u201d – LEMMY KILMiSTER of MOTORHEAD – July 2000 Juice Magazine #50 by Robin Fleming<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat is going to remain is skateboarding.\u201d – TOMMY GUERRERO – July 2000 Juice Magazine #50 by Dan Levy<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019d like to add a few things. You can\u2019t handle the truth. You can\u2019t tame the beast, so don\u2019t even try. And when we come to your town, you treat us like rock stars and everything will go all right.\u201d \u00a0 <\/span>– BREWCE MARTIN – Dec 2000 Juice Magazine #51<\/p>\n

\u201cIf we can just put the pools out there, it\u2019ll show the kids there are other ways to ride. It\u2019s definitely part of the history of skateboarding and it will be here forever.\u201d – DAVE DUNCAN – Dec 2000 Juice Magazine #51 by Jim Murphy<\/p>\n

\u201cBellmar\u2019s was the first backyard bowl, and then Chicken\u2019s. Chicken\u2019s has been around for about nine years and Bellmar\u2019s is a few years older.\u201d – RICK CARJE – Dec 2000 Juice Magazine #51 by Jim Murphy<\/p>\n

\u201cThere\u2019s no way you could ever clean up skateboarding. Real skateboarding can\u2019t ever be cleaned up.\u201d – DAVID HACKETT – Dec 2000 Juice Magazine #51 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Dead Boys and their chicks come wandering into the surf shop asking \u2018Where is Sid?\u2019 Sid of course is nowhere to be found because he partied all night. I was like, \u2018You\u2019re not going to see him today. He is MIA right now\u2019. And I\u2019m a sixteen year old kid with a mohawk and in the floor right there where they were standing it said \u2018Sonic Reducer\u2019 in the concrete.\u201d – SERG of DONKEYPUNCH – Dec 2000 Juice Magazine #51 by Merk<\/p>\n

\u201cFirst time I went to Burnside, meeting those guys was the best; they had the best attitudes. It really changed skating for me. That was great.\u201d – PETE \u201cTHE OX\u201d COLPITTS – Dec 2000 Juice Magazine #51 by Ray Stevens II<\/p>\n

\u201cRed was just so dragster-like that it looked like he\u2019d blow himself up at any minute with a spontaneous explosion of chew, no fear, big cojones.\u201d – SALBA – Dec 2000 Juice Magazine #51 by Heidi Fitzgerald<\/p>\n

\u201cJournalists can change the perception of history. Even looking back at American history, I wonder if what I\u2019m reading is true. It\u2019s too bad there weren\u2019t punk rockers at the turn of the century or during the Revolutionary War.\u201d – AGENT ORANGE – Dec 2000 Juice Magazine #51 by Heidi Fitzgerald<\/p>\n

\u201cSkateboarding is not a sport, will never be a sport, should never be a sport, it should be a lifestyle. Something that you love to do because you\u2019re addicted to gravity. It\u2019s about you and gravity.\u201d – SKIP ENGBLOM – Dec 2000 Juice Magazine #51 by Heidi Fitzgerald<\/p>\n

\u201cI saw the game early and refused to play.\u201d – SCOTT BOURNE – Dec 2000 Juice Magazine #51 by Jason Jessee<\/p>\n

\u201cLife is full of slams; you either lay there or you get back up.\u201d – KALE SANDRIDGE – Feb 2001 Juice Magazine #52 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cMy personal motives were to help the kids and give them things I didn\u2019t have growing up. I didn\u2019t have anyone taking me surfing, giving me team shirts, sponsoring me surfboards and skateboards and taking me to skate contests. I don\u2019t think anyone had ever thought of preparing these kids for a future in skating and surfing.\u201d – JEFF HO – Feb 2001 Juice Magazine #52 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cI love the limelight and I want to be in it, and skateboarding gave me that whole attitude. It was the best education of all time.\u201d – BOB BINIAK – Feb 2001 Juice Magazine #52 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cPeople had something to say and musicians were doing their own thing just getting off on it. It was enjoyable, especially when you discover really good new bands like the Dead Boys.

\u201cA true pool shark stays stealth, leaves no evidence and doesn\u2019t attract attention to himself or the mission at hand.\u201d – SALBA – Feb 2001 Juice Magazine #52<\/p>\n

\u201cSkateboarding is an art. Fuckin\u2019 art. You know, if it was a sport, I wouldn\u2019t be skating with this fucked-up knee. It\u2019s an art, because I want to do it.\u201d – OMAR SALAZAR – Feb 2001 #52 by Dan Levy<\/p>\n

\u201cAs a matter of fact, the only time I ever went to Studio 54 was on a double-date. I was with Susan Blonde. She was an actress and the hostess on something called Blue Channel, an early cable semi-hardcore porn show. She was my date and we were double-dating with Michael Jackson and Andy Warhol. I was like, \u201cWhat the hell!\u201d I didn\u2019t care she was a porn star. And Michael Jackson was still black; he still had his original color. He had just done The Wiz so he had the big hat look going with patchwork on his bell-bottoms. We\u2019re sitting there and I\u2019m feeling like \u201cI made it.\u201d Andy Warhol was dressed like Lil\u2019 Abner with bib overalls and no shirt. And Andy goes, \u201cI\u2019m going to make you a star. You\u2019re my latest find.\u201d And Michael Jackson passes me a joint. In Ohio, if we had enough marijuana to fill an aspirin, we would talk about it all week. We would call it \u2018African trance weed\u2019 and finally on Friday we would get together and we\u2019d drink enough wine first so that when we each got our tiny little smidgen of a hit, we\u2019d all think we were high. So, when Michael Jackson hands me a joint, I\u2019m like \u201cWhoa, you bet.\u201d I\u2019m looking around and no one is grabbing it out of my hand. If I were in Ohio there would be five savages grabbing for it trying to find some escape from reality. So I had a hit, then I had another couple of hits and passed it on. Then Susan Blonde says, \u201cLet\u2019s go dance.\u201d I said, \u201cI really don\u2019t even know how to dance. I can only do it on stage. Don\u2019t ask me to dance to some disco.\u201d The dance floor at Studio 54 had this huge tower of disco lights like a countdown towers for drag strips and they had nine of them. It was like a tic-tac-toe board over top of the dance floor. They\u2019d turn them around and rotate them slowly and lower them down and twirl them. I\u2019m watching Susan dance and the song playing was \u201cIt\u2019s Raining Men\u201d. The towers of lights are coming down and there\u2019s something wrong. They\u2019re not coming down properly. They start twirling around and hitting people in the head. I\u2019m seeing all these people getting hit in the head and there\u2019s all this blood and all these people getting hurt. I run over and grab Susan and go, \u201cCome on. Let\u2019s go.\u201d And she\u2019s like, \u201cWhat?!\u201d I said, \u201cI just saw all these people get hurt by the lights.\u201d And then I look over and it\u2019s all gone. And she\u2019s like, \u201cAre you okay?\u201d I said, \u201cI just saw all this blood and people getting hurt by the disco balls!\u201d She said, \u201cDid you smoke the angel dust? Oh, no. You smoked the angel dust.\u201d I said, \u201cWhat\u2019s angel dust?\u201d So, she put me in a taxi and got me back to my hotel room and we got to the door and I thought she was coming in and she put her foot on my ass and pushed me through the door and said, \u201cGood bye, good luck.\u201d I just sat there and fried all night. That was my date with Andy Warhol.\u201d – MARK MOTHERSBAUGH of DEVO – Sept 2001 Juice Magazine #53 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Sex Pistols had been kicked off the label and he took us in the studio and recorded a four-song demo that became the first EP. The president of A&M wanted a punk band that wasn\u2019t going to pee on the wall and I guess that was us.\u201d – THE DICKIES – Sept 2001 Juice Magazine #53 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cWell, the way I skate, it\u2019s an art. And the sport aspect, would be the ESPN shit.\u201d – PETER SMOLIK – Feb 2001 Juice Magazine #52 by Dan Levy<\/p>\n

\u201cI pretty much made a mark as the most hated surfer in the industry. Thanks to all the people that believed in me and everyone else can fuck off.\u201d – CHRISTIAN FLETCHER – Sept 2001 Juice Magazine #53 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cIt means open palm, slap right in the fuckin mouth of the one trying to shove shit down your throat. It means fuckin\u2019 up constantly. It means knowing good things come to an end. Everything sacred will get raped. It means ready to die. It\u2019s the throttle held open – the endless death on a daily basis. Seize the day because there is no sweetness left in this world. I love you, can you dig it?\u201d\u00a0 <\/span>– JASON JESSEE- Sept 2001 Juice Magazine #53 by Jay Adams<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen Stecyk and I first started the Dogtown and Z-Boys project, Muir came up to me and said, \u201cYou know holmes, I\u2019ll give you all my support, but if you screw up I\u2019m going to kick your ass.\u201d – STACY PERALTA – Sept 2001 Juice Magazine #53 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cI was just into the perfection of building beautiful flowing concrete. To me, it was more of an artistic thing.\u201d – WALLY HOLLYDAY – Sept 2001 Juice Magazine #53 by Jim Murphy<\/p>\n

\u201cPipes are the last, and only uncommercialized genre left in skateboarding today. In the pipes, the underground rules, not the wooden vert warriors, or the street hellions, or the media blitz. It\u2019s the only true pure rage in skating left.\u201d – SALBA – Feb 2002 Juice Magazine #54<\/p>\n

\u201cStecyk was commando photographer guy. Stecyk had everything to do with making Dogtown, Dogtown. We were just a bunch of kids skating and he wrote the articles and made it what it was. Without Stecyk I don\u2019t think it would have been shit. I think he\u2019s the one that blew it all up. I guess we knew how to skate and stuff too but Stecyk blew it up. There would have been no fucking Dogtown if it weren\u2019t for Stecyk.\u201d – JAY ADAMS –\u00a0 <\/span>Feb 2002 Juice Magazine #54 by Steve Olson and Dan Levy<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was 1986 when I found Nude Bowl for the first time. It had been rumor city up until then and I had looked for it on at least three occasions, driving for miles in that stinking desert for hour in 110 degree heat. It finally took one weekend and good luck when we actually came upon her basking in all her glory. . . hardly any spray paint, still a death box, and original coping which grinded like no other. Thanks to Eddie Elguera and Al Losi. Micke, Spidey and me with filmer Scott Dittrich found it when we were filming the first Santa Cruz video. That part in the film Streets on Fire featured that very first session in 115 degree weather baking our brains so much that we left after an hour or so. We went back a lot in those early days, just us and whoever we brought. No rules, no bullshit, no egos or attitudes, just plain American fun in the sun. We\u2019d B-B-Q while the girls would sunbathe and drink beer and skate all day long into the night with generators before anybody ever thought of doing it. We\u2019d jam with bands and go off with no hassles or lame fighting that happened later. It was skate paradise literally.\u201d – SALBA – Feb 2002 Juice Magazine #54<\/p>\n

\u201cSkateboarding is forever and eventually pools are where you\u2019re gonna end up.\u201d – AL PARTANEN – Feb 2002 Juice Magazine #54 by Sam Hitz<\/p>\n

\u201cSkateboarding is about going off. I want to watch skateboarding that\u2019s exciting. That\u2019s why backyard contests are way more happening. I just wish the events would have at least one contest a year based on aggression.\u201d – TIM PAYNE – Feb 2002 Juice Magazine #54 by Jim Murphy<\/p>\n

\u201cThe first song I remember writing was \u201cThe Ramp Song,\u201d about my buddy Danny Moped getting into a fight with this guy\u2019s dad who owned the house where this ramp was. I had stolen most of the wood for the ramp before we relocated it there and this guy came out and attacked my friend Moped while he was skating. Someone ended up with a bloody ear. The chorus went: \u201cJust having fun, hurting no one, except ourselves and maybe your dad…\u201d – JFA – Aug 2002 Juice Magazine #55 by Terri Craft<\/p>\n

\u201cSkating pools is a high that can\u2019t be beat.\u201d – JAY ADAMS – Aug 2002 Juice Magazine #55 by Terri Craft<\/p>\n

\u201cHow in the hell can you describe what Tony Alva means to the world of skateboarding? T.A. was the first skater to set standards. Nobody did it better or with more style than T.A. He was the first world champ, first in the world record books, first winner of the \u2018SkateBoarder\u2019 Poll and the very first to pull off frontside airs in pools. Nobody was a bigger rock star skater than Alva; Not then and not now. In his prime, you were lucky to even get to drop in while he was skating. if you did you\u2019d better be able to rip, because if you couldn\u2019t, you\u2019d better just sit and watch. I can\u2019t tell you how many times he showed up at a skatepark and everybody would just stop skating and take notes. The early days of pool-riding belong to him. he paved the road that all modern day skaters are riding down. The name Tony Alva is still burning bright in the skateboard world. Can you name anyone else who has been doing it as long and as good as Alva? Don\u2019t think he\u2019s ready to give it up anytime soon, because you\u2019d be kidding yourself. I bet if you asked him he\u2019d say it\u2019s just beginning (again). With a new shoe from Vans and Alva Skateboards coming on strong, I\u2019d say it\u2019s a safe bet to believe he\u2019s going to be around for awhile. \u2018Yeah, T.A. You rule, homeboy. Thanks for all the memories. Keep it real like you always have. never say it\u2019s over.\u2019 Tony Alva is a skateboarder 4 life 100% for real.\u201d – JAY ADAMS – Aug 2002 Juice Magazine #55<\/p>\n

\u201cSkateboarding has changed my life in a very positive way. It has given me a focus in life that is pure and the determination to do things positive. I wouldn\u2019t change it for all the money or power in the universe.\u201d – TONY ALVA – Aug 2002 Juice Magazine #55 by Jay Adams<\/p>\n

\u201cAll those dudes were bummed that I brought him to the pool. I said, \u201cFuck! This is Larry Bertlemann. He\u2019s the one that paved the way.\u201d That dude was fluidly ripping. He was 100% surfing. He was really cool.\u201d – PAUL CONSTANTINEAU – Aug 2002 Juice Magazine #55 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Dog Bowl was probably the best thing that ever happened to us, because we were always running from the cops, trying to skate pools. I used to hate that, because I could never really relax and get a good run. At the Dog Bowl, we didn\u2019t have to worry about a damn thing. The only thing we had to worry about was, who had the next joint or who had the beer. The owner would watch us skate, which was a good thing, because that just made us really relax and think of the skating.\u201d – SHOGO KUBO – Aug 2002 Juice Magazine #55 by Jay Adams<\/p>\n

\u201cThat\u2019s what separates the men from the boys. If you can do it all, it puts you on another level. If you can conquer all skills in skateboarding, you\u2019re an all-around skater.\u201d – CHRISTIAN HOSOI – Feb 2004 Juice Magazine #57 by Keith Hamm<\/p>\n

\u201cSomeone knocked the beer out of Keith\u2019s hand and the next thing you know bodies were flying everywhere. For a solid minute, it was a huge washing machine full of skaters in our room. It felt like people were running on the ceiling. Everyone just went A.W.O.L. There were probably more than twenty people in that small room. Finally, someone went flying through our hotel window.\u201d – HENRY GUITERREZ – Feb 2004 Juice Magazine #57 by Jim Murphy<\/p>\n

\u201cThe whole resurgence of pool skating and being accepted as part of the sport, inspires me to go out there and break my bones and do whatever I have to do. Inspiration is all around me.\u201d – ERIC \u201cTUMA\u201d BRITTON – Feb 2004 Juice Magazine #57 by Aaron Murray<\/p>\n

\u201cWe go out to Blaize\u2019s ramp and the first thing I see is Blaize doing a backside ollie to axle, like, 3 1\/2 feet out, and all I can hear is the roar of the ramp.\u201d – SHEPARD FAIREY – Feb 2004 Juice Magazine #57 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen there\u2019s energy in the water, I have energy. I\u2019m governed by the energy of the ocean. You know they say, at the hospital during the full moon that more women have babies. It\u2019s like a big rush to give birth because all of the strength of the moon, the ocean and the water. You don\u2019t even know the power it has. It\u2019s got enough power over me that my whole life has been trying to devise a way to always be able to surf. I tell everyone regarding my plans that, everything is pending a 20 foot swell.\u201d – LAIRD HAMILTON – Feb 2004 Juice Magazine #57 by Jeff Ho<\/p>\n

\u201cI just put the events on. Guinness and David Frost wanted some Skateboarding World Records and I had the sanctioned body of skateboarding because I had started the USSA (United States Skateboard Association) and the WSA (World Skateboard Association). They said, \u201cWhat events do you have for world records?\u201d I said, \u201cWell, I don\u2019t know. How about speed? That\u2019s natural.\u201d Then I had to come up with some other events. I said, \u201cWhat about a height jump and barrel jump? They said, \u201cFine. We\u2019ll be there with a film crew.\u201d I got the permits for Signal Hill and did the first World\u2019s Speed Run at Signal Hill.\u201d – JAMES O\u2019MAHONEY – Feb 2004 Juice Magazine #57 by Susanne Melanie Berry<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you can fly 100 feet on a motorcycle, than you should be able to fly that same distance on a skateboard.\u201d – DANNY WAY – Mar 2005 Juice Magazine #58 by Dave Duncan<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen I was growing up, you either skated vert or you skated freestyle. The freestylers were dorks. You were either cool, slashing pools or you were dancing around on your little orange board doing wheelies. Are you kidding me? I chose vert.\u201d – TONY HAWK – Mar 2005 Juice Magazine #58 by Christian Hosoi<\/p>\n

\u201cGuys like Natas, Julien, and Gonz sparked the street scene and then it was on. Those guys were breaking the law. We were breaking the law, we were skating backyard ramps and pools. I love it. It\u2019s great.\u201d- JIMMY \u201cTHE GREEK\u201d MARCUS – Mar 2005 Juice Magazine #58 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cWe were the enemy against all the societal bullshit. Skateboarding was solitude. It was about getting away with your crew who were also losers.\u201d – DUANE PETERS – Mar 2005 Juice Magazine #58 by Ian MacKaye<\/p>\n

\u201cHe said street skating is the future of skateboarding. I was bummed. I thought it was all skateboarding.\u201d – JOHN LUCERO – Mar 2005 Juice Magazine #58 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen skaters learned to build skate parks, that\u2019s when the best skate parks started coming in.\u201d – SLOPPY SAM BATTERSON – Mar 2005 Juice Magazine #58 by Jim Murphy<\/p>\n

\u201cThings will be more fruitful if they\u2019re paying off on lower scales. If artists are seen trying to make a big effort to throw concerts ad rallies to raise money to put back into our own neighborhoods, we could really move forward. We should try and clean up our own backyards first.\u201d – STEEL PULSE – Mar 2005 Juice Magazine #58 by Dan Levy<\/p>\n

\u201cWe had surfed all day at Hermosa Pier. We were just laying around with the radio on, talking to each other and, all of the sudden, we heard that the Japanese were bombing Pearl Harbor. We looked at each other and realized that nothing was ever going to be the same.\u201d – LEROY GRANNIS – Mar 2005 Juice Magazine #58 by James O\u2019Mahoney<\/p>\n

\u201cStyle was everything. Style was the soul. If you had no style you had no soul.\u201d – HERBIE FLETCHER – Mar 2005 Juice Magazine #58 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cI was a soldier of misfortune. When I read one of the film reviews in the magazines, it made me look like a fugitive. I thought, \u201cWell, that\u2019s not totally untrue.\u201d But I wasn\u2019t a fugitive. Of anyone on the team, I was the most rebellious. I don\u2019t conform to anything that society expects of me.\u201d – CHRIS CAHILL – Mar 2005 Juice Magazine #58 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cI went to find my uncle to tell him that these guys had stolen my board. He said, \u201cThat\u2019s okay. I stole it from them first.\u201d – CHRIS SENN – Dec 2005 Juice Magazine #59 by Dave Duncan<\/p>\n

\u201cYou can\u2019t pass up a spot. You can\u2019t not skate something that\u2019s skateable. You have to skate as much as possible.\u201d – MARKY CLEMENTS – Dec 2005 Juice Magazine #59 by Dan Levy<\/p>\n

\u201cI walked up the hill with half of my face scraped off, thinking, \u201cThis is for me.\u201d – BEN SCHROEDER – Dec 2005 Juice Magazine #59 by Jim Murphy<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s all about NASCAR and skateboarding. Go fast and go huge.\u201d – CHRIS COLLETTE – Dec 2005 Juice Magazine #59 by Curt Baker<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s taken the general public 30 years to figure out what I\u2019ve known since I was eight years old. Skateboarding is the most bitchin\u2019 thing.\u201d – ERIC DRESSEN – Dec 2005 Juice Magazine #59 by Jay Adams<\/p>\n

\u201cVertical has always been my thing.\u201d – TOM GROHOLSKI – Dec 2005 Juice Magazine #59 by Jim Murphy<\/p>\n

\u201cI wanted my art to be in your face. I wanted to make something that would really catch your eye and make you jump back.\u201d – WES HUMPSTON – Dec 2005 Juice Magazine #59 by Ari Marsh<\/p>\n

\u201cRock n\u2019 roll was so good and so progressive that it seemed like you had to be someone really special to play guitar and sing that way. Punk rock gave everybody a chance.\u201d – JEFF AMENT of PEARL JAM – Dec 2005 Juice Magazine #59 by Jeff Ho<\/p>\n

\u201cThey\u2019ve been saying rock is dead ever since it began. They said rock was dead when Elvis went into the army. They said rock was dead when the Beatles broke up. They said rock was dead when Buddy Holly died. They said rock was dead when the Sex Pistols broke up. Rock n\u2019 roll ain\u2019t dead until I\u2019m dead.\u201d – BILLY IDOL\u00a0 <\/span>Dec 2005 Juice Magazine #59 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cMy feet touched my head and broke my back. I came up seeing black and white. I had the wind knocked out of me. From that day forward, I realized it doesn\u2019t matter how big the waves are. You have to have 100% respect.\u201d – GARRETT MCNAMARA – Dec 2005 Juice Magazine #59 by Jeff Ho<\/p>\n

\u201cLet your board take you around the pool. Don\u2019t try to go to specific places in the pool. Just let your board ride you around and you\u2019ll get to the right place.\u201d – RUNE GLIFBERG – Apr 2006 Juice Magazine #60 by Dave Duncan<\/p>\n

\u201cI laugh at authority figures when they bust me for skating, because they will never know what it feels like to do a frontside grind.\u201d – CHRIS CUDLIP – Apr 2006 Juice Magazine #60 by Dan Levy<\/p>\n

\u201cGonz was the \u201cSlam Man\u201d. Then all of a sudden, one day, I had to call him \u201cThe Gonz\u201d. Everyone was like, \u201cThe Gonz. The Gonz.\u201d I was like, \u201cThat\u2019s motherfuckin\u2019 \u2018Slam Man\u2019.\u201d – JEFF GROSSO – Apr 2006 Juice Magazine #60 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cThey told me that I was never going to walk again, and they told my family, too. It was a real drag. I was like, \u201cFuck you. I\u2019m going to fucking walk. I\u2019m going to be skating, soon.\u201d – JOHN CARDIEL – Apr 2006 Juice Magazine #60 by Joey Tershay<\/p>\n

\u201cThey wanted a 3-foot park. I showed up and said \u201cIt ain\u2019t going down like that.\u201d The first thing I did was throw up a 9-foot bowl with pool coping.\u201d – LIL EDDIE LAWRENCE – Apr 2006 Juice Magazine #60 by Jim Murphy<\/p>\n

\u201cI remember we were coming in for a landing in Japan, and Grosso had Christian\u2019s boom box, and he was just blaring Lynyrd Skynyrd at top volume. Everyone was yelling, \u201cYou don\u2019t play Lynyrd Skynyrd on an airplane when it\u2019s landing…\u201d – TOM KNOX – Apr 2006 Juice Magazine #60 by Eric Dressen<\/p>\n

\u201cAll these other types were worried about money. I never cared. Don\u2019t ask me how much money I want. I just wanted to skate. That\u2019s all.\u201d – RICK BLACKHART – Apr 2006 Juice Magazine #60 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen I saw the magazines, they showed people riding bowls and pools and trying tricks. I thought that was really exciting and challenging. That\u2019s why I picked up my skateboard.\u201d – STEVE CABALLERO – Apr 2006 Juice Magazine #60 by Christian Hosoi<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was a talent of being able to see that society is a game and you can manipulate it. That\u2019s what Malcolm McLaren always talks about. It\u2019s about how you can change the perception of society and culture just by using your ideas in the right way. This is something that came with all the 20th century art, from Dada to punk. Punk is an art movement. It\u2019s a manifesto. \u201cI shall do what I want. If you don\u2019t like it, fuck off.\u201d – THE BUZZCOCKS – Apr 2006 Juice Magazine #60 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cWe were the first ones. There was no English movement. There was no New York movement. It was the end of the \u201860s. We were there before all those bands that had something to do with success even thought about getting a band together. When they saw us, they coined the phrase \u201cpunk music.\u201d – NEW YORK DOLLS – Apr 2006 Juice Magazine #60 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you can buy it at the mall, it isn\u2019t punk. You want to buy something that someone else threw away because it was too loud and too ugly.\u201d – BRIAN BRANNON of JFA – Apr 2006 Juice Magazine #60 by Jim Murphy<\/p>\n

\u201cSkateboarding will always be a black art. It will always appeal to the wayward sons, and the kids that aren\u2019t understood.\u201d – KEVIN ANCELL – Apr 2006 Juice Magazine #60 by James O\u2019Mahoney<\/p>\n

\u201cI remember standing up and doing spinners and going backwards. I still remember the water hitting the side of the board. It was unreal. I\u2019m still looking for that same first wave, that same feeling.\u201d – LARRY BERTLEMANN – Apr 2006 Juice Magazine #60 by Jeff Ho<\/p>\n

\u201cThese gladiators fighting for critical position in the line-up became the backbone for the generation to follow.\u201d – DIBI FLETCHER – Apr 2006 Juice Magazine #60<\/p>\n

\u201cSkateboarding really blew up. There was a vert contest at Trashmore and it was the first contest that I remember where pro skateboarders were signing autographs.\u201d – CHRIS MILLER – Sept 2006 Juice Magazine #61 by Jim Murphy<\/p>\n

\u201cBurnside spurred the whole Northwest skatepark scene. Burnside is the reason that we have all these sick skateparks.\u201d\u00a0 <\/span>– MONK HUBBARD – Sept 2006 Juice Magazine #61 by Jim Murphy<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you say, \u201cI\u2019m just going to go out and cruise today and be mellow.\u201d What happens? You end up eating shit and dying. You have to go out full-hearted, full-charge and just do it. That\u2019s the only way I can do it.\u201d – BUCK SMITH – Sept 2006 Juice Magazine #61 by Jim Murphy<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s crazy how our lives turned out. Little did I know that we\u2019d end up spending the next 20 years traveling the world skating and living this crazy lifestyle.\u201d – EDDIE REATEGUI – Sept 2006 Juice Magazine #61 by Christian Hosoi<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen the forward ollie in motion came around, that\u2019s when it really changed everything. We were going up the curb and over the bush. It became utilitarian. It was like, \u201cOh, that\u2019s in my way. I\u2019ll go over it.\u201d – TOMMY GUERRERO – Sept 2006 Juice Magazine #61 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s like your dream from when you\u2019re a little kid. We have pools that are skateable that you don\u2019t have to get arrested to go skate.\u201d – MARC CORBETT – Sept 2006 Juice Magazine #61 by Jim Murphy<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re walking through the arches down this humongous flight of stairs, and I\u2019m looking at 70,000 people going crazy. When I saw all of those people, I felt the rush. It\u2019s so ridiculously amazing. When I\u2019m up there, playing, and feeling the energy from the crowd, it\u2019s a rush. It\u2019s probably the same feeling as getting double overhead Teahupoo or something.\u201d – ROBERT TRUJILLO of METALLICA – Sept 2006 Juice Magazine #61 by Jeff Ho<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was amazing. I was in the front row, and I stole David Johansen\u2019s beer bottle. That was one of my first rock n\u2019 roll souvenirs.\u201d – JOAN JETT – Sept 2006 Juice Magazine #61 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cAmerica was just not ready to accept a female singing this raucous music. They were having a hard enough time trying to accept Elvis, but they didn\u2019t have any choice. Elvis was in their face.\u201d – WANDA JACKSON – Sept 2006 Juice Magazine #61 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cMusic is like a drug. It\u2019s like a weapon. It\u2019s a universal language. It\u2019s a language that anybody can love.\u201d – WILLIE DEVILLE – Sept 2006 Juice Magazine #61 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re not Spicoli\u2019s. We like to surf big waves, big thrills.\u201d – BRUCE IRONS – Sept 2006 Juice Magazine #61 by Dibi Fletcher<\/p>\n

\u201cBruce Iron\u2019s reputation precedes him. He\u2019s always supposed to be this Bad Boy, but he looks like Robert Redford playing a state senator. The thing I like about him besides being a great surfer, I found him, to my surprise, deep down inside a true gentleman.\u201d \u2013 BRUCE WEBER: MASTER PHOTOGRAPHER – Sept 2006 Juice Magazine #61<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s the best thing ever. Everywhere you go, every town has a perfect little skatepark. I want to see mega concrete in every town in the world.\u201d – STEVE REEVES – Apr 2007 Juice Magazine #62 by Dave Duncan<\/p>\n

\u201cI remember telling my mom, \u201cYou can make money being a pro skater. I don\u2019t know how much, but it\u2019s like $7,000 or something!\u201d – ANTHONY VAN ENGELEN – Apr 2007 Juice Magazine #62 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you had the proper amount of gravity in your head, you wouldn\u2019t be jumping off flat ground.\u201d – MARK GONZALES – Apr 2007 Juice Magazine #62 by Christian Hosoi<\/p>\n

\u201cI believe in the principle that a skateboard is just one board, two trucks and four wheels. You should ride everything. Skateboarding is one and it should not be divided.\u201d – NILTON NEVES – Apr 2007 Juice Magazine #62 by Dave Duncan<\/p>\n

\u201cThere are so many bowls, ramps and skateparks now. Now there are actually places where you can carve. You can ride pools everywhere. That\u2019s my favorite thing. Now that pool riding has come back into skating, It\u2019s made it fun for me.\u201d – SCOTT OSTER – April 2007 Juice Magazine #62 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cGrowing up in Texas made me tough. It made me skate like a man and love skateboarding.\u201d – JASON SPEER – April 2007 Juice Magazine #62 by Jim Murphy<\/p>\n

\u201cI turned to Lita Ford and I said, \u201cI want to go home.\u201d I was fighting back the tears when Lita said, \u201cDo you think I\u2019m not homesick?\u201d Of course I am, but when I go home, I want to be somebody!\u201d Those were magical words.\u201d – CHERIE CURRIE – April 2007 Juice Magazine #62 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cMusic now is very commercial. It\u2019s about money now instead of being about feeling. If we got back to the feeling of a song, it could change so many things.\u201d – LA LA BROOKS – April 2007 Juice Magazine #62 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cThey were saying it\u2019s easy to market to kids that street skate, because not everyone has a halfpipe, but my take on that was if you didn\u2019t have a half pipe, build one.\u201d-\u00a0 <\/span>JIM MURPHY – April 2007 Juice Magazine #62 by Chris Mearkle<\/p>\n

\u201cHow does anyone not think that skateboarding is the coolest thing in the world?\u201d – CHRISTIAN HOSOI – April 2007 Juice Magazine #62 by Dave Duncan<\/p>\n

\u201cIt seems like each generation takes skateboarding to a new level. To be able to share that with the world and keep it real is really something unique.\u201d – DAVE DUNCAN – April 2007 Juice Magazine #62 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cGoing from clay to urethane wheels was like going from a Model T with no shocks and bare tires to a Ferrari.\u201d –\u00a0 <\/span>TED TERREBONNE – April 2007 Juice Magazine #62 by Dan Levy<\/p>\n

\u201cThat picture of Waldo is the most published photo in the sport. It\u2019s been in 47 different publications and it\u2019s still being published. That was the first picture to show that you could get past vertical.\u201d – JAMES O\u2019MAHONEY – April 2007 Juice Magazine #62 by Dibi Fletcher<\/p>\n

\u201cI was making surfboards and going surfing all the time. We were partying and working on a movie called \u201cRainbow Bridge\u201d with Jimi Hendrix. That was an exciting time.\u201d – HERBIE FLETCHER – April 2007 Juice Magazine #62 by James O\u2019Mahoney<\/p>\n

\u201cThe spoon was the one I\u2019m most noted for, until it went out of existence, and now it\u2019s reborn again. We\u2019re in a longboard era again. It seems more popular now than it was then.\u201d – RENNY YATER – April 2007 Juice Magazine #62 by James O\u2019Mahoney<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s rare to sell a commercial image or make a commercial image that\u2019s really an art image, unless it was art first and they buy it as art and then make it commercial.\u201d – ART BREWER – April 2007 Juice Magazine #62 by Dibi Fletcher<\/p>\n

\u201cIn America\u2019s mind, surfers are the cowboys now. We\u2019re the American icons.\u201d – JEFF DIVINE – April 2007 Juice Magazine #62 by Dibi Fletcher<\/p>\n

\u201cMaybe I\u2019ll be rich. That\u2019s what I\u2019d want to be if I weren\u2019t a surf photographer. I\u2019d want to be rich.\u201d – TOM SERVAIS – April 2007 Juice Magazine #62 by Dibi Fletcher<\/p>\n

\u201cI found three pools today. My feet are broken; my heels are broken. I can barely walk, but I can\u2019t get enough.\u201d – JIMMY MOORE – Jan 2008 Juice Magazine #63 by Curt Baker<\/p>\n

\u201cI watched that scene in the OBX sprout to a massive, cool, super hospitable scene. And it\u2019s not like these guys are 25-year-olds that have no responsibilities. These guys have families to take care of and they\u2019re into it more hardcore than some of the young bucks.\u201d – BRYAN LATHROP – Jan 2008 Juice Magazine #63 by Jim Murphy<\/p>\n

\u201cAs a kid, I related more to the bowl riding thing and the underground pool skating scene. Guys were going out and doing it DIY and finding bowls, banks and pools. They were renegades. That part of skateboarding has always intrigued me. That is the heart and soul of skateboarding.\u201d – PAT NGOHO – Jan 2008 Juice Magazine #63 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cAs soon as I pulled the trigger on the project and pulled out the credit card, I got a lefthand kidney. It\u2019s a completely functional skating pool.\u201d- DAVE \u201cSUEDE\u201d LIBHART – Jan 2008 Juice Magazine #63 by Jim Murphy<\/p>\n

\u201cSkateboarding, I found on the streets, for myself. It\u2019s like a treasure to me. It\u2019s part of what I am. It\u2019s what I choose to be.\u201d – BRUNO PASSOS – Jan 2008 Juice Magazine #63 by Dave Duncan<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t want to see a Frito\u2019s commercial with a skateboarder on it. It\u2019s not in the spirit of skateboarding. We\u2019re not supposed to be in the limelight. We\u2019re supposed to be the scuttlebutt. We\u2019re not supposed to be heroes. We\u2019re supposed to be zeroes. If we look good, we look bad.\u201d – BILL DANFORTH – Jan 2008 Juice Magazine #63 by Jim Murphy<\/p>\n

\u201cFull pipes are just unreal.. We drove like a half an hour from Phoenix and when we pulled up, it was just pipe after pipe. It was surreal. They were all lined up.\u201d – GREGG WEAVER – Jan 2008 Juice Magazine #63 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cI owe everything to skateboarding. Some people say that skateboarding owes them. That\u2019s the wrong philosophy. I owe skateboarding.\u201d – DARREN NAVARRETTE – Jan 2008 Juice Magazine #63 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s like that picture of me at Anaheim with the bloody knee. I was imitating Mark Richards at Haleiwa with the red-railed, yellow Lighting Bolt board. His knee was just jammed up in his chin. That\u2019s what I wanted to do.\u201d – TOM \u201cWALLY\u201d INOUYE – Jan 2008 Juice Magazine #63 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cSkateboarding was even more socially unacceptable. It felt good to be the double negative with regards to that. It felt good to be in that spot. I was just a little kid, looking up to guys like Jason Jessee and other guys that came before me.\u201d – MATT HENSLEY – Jan 2008 Juice Magazine #63 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cAs political situations change, the guidebooks change. There\u2019s really no point in having a guidebook because the path is constantly changing. You have to be comfortable in the chaos.\u201d – IAN ASTBURY of THE CULT –\u00a0 <\/span>Jan 2008 Juice Magazine #63 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cThe show was pretty crazy. There was a lot of hype. The Sex Pistols were on the cover of Time Magazine. They were on TV with Walter Cronkite. For a scene that would rarely get more than 500 people together at one time, to have 5,000 people together at the show was unreal.\u201d – JAMES WILSEY –\u00a0 <\/span>Jan 2008 Juice Magazine #63 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cI remember I had this map up on the wall that was just for decoration. When someone would call with a message from a record company, I would write the phone numbers on the map. That map and that phone was the beginning of the Seattle music scene getting major label interest. From that point, it was a pretty magical time.\u201d – CHRIS CORNELL –\u00a0 <\/span>Jan 2008 Juice Magazine #63 by Jeff Ho<\/p>\n

\u201cI realized soon that all I needed was skateboarding. It\u2019s unexplainable. I\u2019m going to put a wig on my board and give it some long hair. That\u2019s how much I love it.\u201d – DAEWON SONG – June 2008 Juice Magazine #64 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cWe were starting to venture into the danger realms of skateboarding, bombing hills and stuff. We started to push each other. It\u2019s fun when you have a bunch of poor, ghetto kids that all happen to have these rickety toys that are all fused together, just get together and push each other in different ways.\u201d – EMMANUAEL GUZMAN – June 2008 Juice Magazine #64 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cThe way to surf Pipe is not to surf Pipe if you don\u2019t know what the fuck you\u2019re doing. Pipe definitely has a pecking order.\u201d – FAST EDDIE ROTHMAN – June 2008 Juice Magazine #64 by Dibi Fletcher<\/p>\n

\u201cI remember when I was 20, I asked Andrew, \u201cWhat are you going to do after skateboarding?\u201d He said, \u201cI don\u2019t know. Retire.\u201d I was like, \u201cThis guy is a fuckin\u2019 idiot.\u201d But it\u2019s possible now.\u201d – HEATH KIRCHART – June 2008 Juice Magazine #64 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cI knew that I wanted my ultimate high to be from skateboarding. All I was thinking about was skateboarding.\u201d – JAKE PIASECKI – June 2008 Juice Magazine #64 by Dan Levy<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cYou can take the gnarliest slam ever and then do it the next go. That\u2019s commitment right there. You wreck shop, get tore the fuck up and then go for it again two minutes later. You just run back up there and charge it again. That\u2019s the best feeling ever.\u201d – LIZARD KING – June 2008 Juice Magazine #64 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cMy dad used to tell me, \u201cIf people want to debate you, just pat them on the shoulder and tell them to go have a sandwich.\u201d And just walk away. Don\u2019t debate them.\u201d – JASON JESSEE – June 2008 Juice Magazine #64 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cI bought my first surfboard from Christian Fletcher when I was in the fifth grade. I bought it with change that I stole and collected. I put it all in a sock and gave it to Christian and said, \u201cHere\u2019s $85.\u201d And he gave me the best twin fin ever. It was amazing. Then I learned how to surf.\u201d – JASON JESSEE – June 2008 Juice Magazine #64 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cWell, it felt like a regular wave, except my legs really hurt afterwards. I didn\u2019t know it was over 60-foot, so I wasn\u2019t really thinking about what it felt like. I just had to make it. I knew I shouldn\u2019t eat it on that wave. I had to make it.\u201d – MAKUA ROTHMAN – June 2008 Juice Magazine #64 by Dibi Fletcher<\/p>\n

\u201cThe stunt where I launch over the car driving directly at me and smashes through the ramp as I go over, is one of the scariest. The timing must be precise. It\u2019s definitely a make or break stunt.\u201d – RYAN SIMONETTI – June 2008 Juice Magazine #64 by Dan Levy<\/p>\n

\u201cShe didn\u2019t have a lot of dough, but any mom that would let you put a vert ramp in the middle of the living room was a pretty dope mom. It was sick. I had the coolest mom.\u201d – MAX SCHAAF – June 2008 Juice Magazine #64 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cThis incredible chill was going through my body. I caught two or three more waves by myself. I had to kick out so I could catch another wave. I was just teasing those guys and going, \u201cLook what you\u2019re missing.\u201d – MIKE HYNSON – June 2008 Juice Magazine #64 by Dibi and Herbie Fletcher<\/p>\n

\u201cThose were the days when Nixon was in business. He was a crook and so was I. He didn\u2019t bother us and we didn\u2019t bother him, except he got caught and so did we. But during the time, we were having a helluva good time.\u201d – MIKE HYNSON – June 2008 Juice Magazine #64 by Dibi and Herbie Fletcher<\/p>\n

\u201cIn the name of skating, wherever I go I will always build something insane. I\u2019m crazy and completely possessed to skate and that will never stop.\u201d – SGT. SK8 – June 2008 Juice Magazine #64 by Jim Murphy<\/p>\n

\u201cNever give up and definitely never listen to someone when they\u2019re telling you that you can\u2019t accomplish something. Anything you set your mind to, you can accomplish. It might take you 20 years, but you\u2019ll never accomplish it if you quit.\u201d – SUNNY GARCIA – June 2008 Juice Magazine #64 by Dibi Fletcher<\/p>\n

\u201cWe were cutting the GTOs record and we go to our session and there\u2019s Jeff Beck on guitar, Nicky on piano, Aynsley Dunbar and the rest of the Mothers of Invention. Frank Zappa was producing. I was singing \u201cShock Treatment\u201d, which I wrote about Keith Richards. I had a big crush on Keith Richards.\u201d – MISS MERCY – June 2008 Juice Magazine #64 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen I was watching Salba dropping in and rolling in on people, and just taking over, he was just dominating. He was blowing snot boogs out at people while he was dropping in with his leopard skin shorts on. It was so punk rock.\u201d – JOHN GIBSON – June 2008 Juice Magazine #64 by Jim Murphy<\/p>\n

\u201cMusic helps deliver the knowledge of those that came before us in language with context to insure accuracy.\u201d\u00a0 <\/span>– PHIL ALVIN of THE BLASTERS – June 2008 Juice Magazine #64 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cTo me, it was just another slam. I\u2019ve been taking slams my whole life and I\u2019ve always gotten up and walked away. If I was able to get up and walk away, I was going to. I was like, \u201cDo I get another run?\u201d – JAKE BROWN – Dec 2008 Juice Magazine #65 by Jim Murphy and Dave Duncan<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen FDR happened, I think everyone felt that way. It was like, \u201cIf we build this, other shit could happen.\u201d And it did.\u201d – DAN TAG – Dec 2008 Juice Magazine #65 by Jim Murphy<\/p>\n

\u201cThere just needs to be more blood in skateboarding. It\u2019s too friendly. It\u2019s become too nice. Skateboarding is tough. It\u2019s an outlaw thing. What happened to that?\u201d – ANDY ROY – Dec 2008 Juice Magazine #65 by Jay Adams<\/p>\n

\u201cThose guys, the Z-Boys, and all the Venice guys like Polar Bear, Jimmy Plumer and George Wilson and the whole Z-Flex team originated skateboarding. There are so many guys that didn\u2019t get as much recognition as the other guys.\u201d – AARON \u201cFINGERS\u201d MURRAY – Dec 2008 Juice Magazine #65 by Christian Hosoi<\/p>\n

\u201cEverything seemed to be going away, but Red and those guys were just going at it under the bridge at Burnside. It was amazing that those guys could build that stuff down there. I don\u2019t think at the time anybody realized what a historic moment it was, and the significance to that thing being built there like that.\u201d – MARK CONAHAN – Dec 2008 Juice Magazine #65 by Jim Murphy<\/p>\n

\u201cI always wanted to build a backyard pool in a skatepark. Lately, we\u2019ve been doing that as much as we can.\u201d – JAMES HEDRICK – Dec 2008 Juice Magazine #65 by Jim Murphy<\/p>\n

\u201cMy goal is to take a timeless photo. That\u2019s the hardest thing to do.\u201d – IVORY SERRA – Dec 2008 Juice Magazine #65 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cThen I saw all the skaters that owned businesses take the easy way out too. Rather than supporting the core people that built it up and making sure that they remained important to skating, the skaters that owned businesses went for the profit instead.\u201d – JEF HARTSEL – Dec 2008 Juice Magazine #65 by Jim Murphy<\/p>\n

\u201cThe next generation was all about the streets. The skate industry justified their actions by saying that not every skater had a half pipe in his backyard. Suddenly, the very reason that grew skateboarding was the very reason why they could also drop it.\u201d – JEF HARTSEL – Dec 2008 Juice Magazine #65 by Jim Murphy<\/p>\n

\u201cI love skateboarding because it\u2019s never ending. Spots are never ending. There are new parks and new terrain. I\u2019ll just love it until I die. I love the feeling of locking into a Smith grind on whatever.\u201d – PAT DUFFY – Dec 2008 Juice Magazine #65 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cI would ride a six-foot unicycle down the street with a raccoon on my shoulder. My mom worked in the salon down the street. She was at the shop and one of her clients came in and said, \u201cYou will not believe what I just saw coming down the street.\u201d My mom would have to say, \u201cOh, my son is coming to see me.\u201d – WALDO AUTRY – Dec 2008 Juice Magazine #65 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019d try something, push it and get broken a little. I never thought about it. I just did it all the time. If someone was doing this, I was going to do that. If someone did that, I had to do that too. It was in me to push it. If they were going to jump over a car, I was going to jump over a garage.\u201d – WALDO AUTRY – Dec 2008 Juice Magazine #65 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cI got a phone call one day from some guy that said, \u201cIs this Waldo Autry? This is Bud Browne. I\u2019d like to put you in the movie Going Surfin\u2019. I was like, \u201cWhoever this is, that\u2019s kind of funny.\u201d I think I cussed at him and hung up.\u201d – WALDO AUTRY – Dec 2008 Juice Magazine #65 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat\u2019s funny is that I was \u201canti-luge\u201d at Signal Hill. I had a big old procession with me that was anti-lay downs because there were no categories so we had to race against the guys that were lying down. I had a big banner that said, \u201cSkateboarders do it standing up.\u201d – WALDO AUTRY – Dec 2008 Juice Magazine #65 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cI remember when we came up with the word \u201cfakie\u201d. Nick Vlaco went up the wall one way and then came back down. I yelled, \u201cYou faked me out!\u201d I was expecting him to kickturn. Then Wally and I were calling it fakie.\u201d – WALDO AUTRY – Dec 2008 Juice Magazine #65 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cWith Logan, I ended up with the very first female signature model skateboard, which was a milestone in itself. I stayed loyal to the Logan team for many years, even through all of the years when everyone was jumping ship, chasing the money and not giving a rat\u2019s ass about the quality of a product.\u201d – LAURA THORNHILL – Dec 2008 Juice Magazine #65 by James O\u2019Mahoney<\/p>\n

\u201cThere are no 401k\u2019s for tattoo artists. There was no retirement or medical insurance. I chose something knowing I might be broke for the rest of my life, but I was going to be happy. All of this that\u2019s happening now, with how huge skateboarding, surfing and tattooing has gotten, it\u2019s all just icing. It\u2019s a kind of pay-off for the guys that followed their passion.\u201d – TIM HENDRICKS – Dec 2008 Juice Magazine #65 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cThose were the days when skateboarding was illegal, so the cops were chasing you. Skateboarding wasn\u2019t about making money. It was just cool and kind of outlaw. I liked that it was a black sheep kind of subculture.\u201d – MATT HENSLEY – Dec 2008 Juice Magazine #65 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t have to sell my soul to keep playing rock n\u2019 roll.\u201d – HANK WILLIAMS III – Dec 2008 Juice Magazine #65 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cIf that seed was in you to begin with to seek out new things and go another route, what happened? Why are you still not seeking out new things? Why aren\u2019t you going to some show that some kid is putting on in his basement? Why aren\u2019t you going out to see brand new bands that you have no clue about?\u201d – TIM KERR – Dec 2008 Juice Magazine #65 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Ramones had played Cleveland, so we had gone to see them and met them. We made friends with them at their show. Stiv was talking to Joey every now and then. He\u2019d call just to say hi or whatever. Then Joey said, \u201cYou know you guys should come up and play CBGBs. Joey got all these people like Roberta Bailey, Danny Fields, \u201cLegs\u201d and all the people from the magazines and brought them down to see us. I remember on the third song, Bators went to jump up on my amp and it was on wheels and it went right off the back of the stage.\u201d – CHEETAH CHROME of THE DEAD BOYS – Dec 2008 Juice Magazine #65 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cThe greatest thing about being a surfer is that you have hope every single day. You wake up every morning and have that promise of getting a fantastic wave that will make your day. I don\u2019t think there are a lot of sports that are comparable to that. It\u2019s incredible.\u201d – EVAN SLATER – Dec 2008 Juice Magazine #65 by Dibi Fletcher<\/p>\n

\u201cMy biggest goal is to be known as one of the best big wave riders that can ride the biggest waves on the planet. And not just ride it in the sense of dropping in and going straight. I want to be able to surf the biggest waves on the planet.\u201d – PETER MEL – Dec 2008 Juice Magazine #65 by Dibi Fletcher<\/p>\n

\u201cThe impact was pretty great. Then I went to lift my head out of the water and I couldn\u2019t move. At the time, I could hold my breath for about three minutes, so I knew I had three minutes to live.\u201d – STRETCH RIEDEL – Dec 2008 Juice Magazine #65 by Dibi Fletcher<\/p>\n

\u201cSkateparks aren\u2019t just something the city wants to do. It\u2019s not just something that we did. It\u2019s something that the community as a whole did together. Whether it\u2019s a mom or dad that shows up and brings us lunch or a local that brings us some appetizers, the city people are great. We have moms that cook us food. It\u2019s not just the city and us. It\u2019s everybody.\u201d – LIL EDDIE LAWRENCE – Dec 2008 Juice Magazine #65 by Jim Murphy<\/p>\n

\u201cWashington Street is the sickest thing going, that I\u2019ve ever skated. That\u2019s worth moving there for. That park is so fun.\u201d – FRITZ MEAD – Sept 2009 Juice Magazine #66 by Jim Murphy<\/p>\n

\u201cMy dad was like, \u201cI\u2019m so happy you followed your heart and you did what you love doing. I can\u2019t tell you where you might have been if you\u2019d listened to me.\u201d It was a cool thing. I was stoked. It was the most proud time of my career, because I felt like I finally did something right.\u201d – OMAR SALAZAR – Sept 2009 Juice Magazine #66 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cThere are some things that I try, and when I do it, I\u2019m having a party inside of my brain. I\u2019m like, \u201cOh, my God! Did you see that?\u201d – OMAR SALAZAR – Sept 2009 Juice Magazine #66 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you still skated, it\u00a0 <\/span>wasn\u2019t just something you did because you thought it was cool. You skated because it is cool.\u201d – CRAIG JOHNSON – Sept 2009 Juice Magazine #66 by Jim Murphy<\/p>\n

\u201cThe whole thing is that it\u2019s just badass straight up. Mean what you say. Say what you mean. Bring it, show it or don\u2019t even talk about it. It\u2019s as real as it gets. You skate. You go to the rock show. The gate is open. Be true and that\u2019s it.\u201d – CRAIG JOHNSON – Sept 2009 Juice Magazine #66 by Jim Murphy<\/p>\n

\u201cAs far as anyone building skateparks, the more the better as far as I\u2019m concerned. Let\u2019s concrete the earth and leave some stash in the grass for nap time. I can critique very strictly or just say it\u2019s fun, because a shitty skatepark can\u2019t keep a good skateboarder down.\u201d – PETER GUNN – Sept 2009 Juice Magazine #66 by Mark Scott<\/p>\n

\u201cI beat Tony Hawk, Christian Hosoi and Omar Hassan in a high air contest in Japan. Somehow Mark Gonzales heard that I\u2019d beaten Christian in the high air contest, so he faxed a handwritten note that said, \u201cIf I were Wade, I would have went a little lower for Christ.\u201d. – WADE SPEYER – Sept 2009 Juice Magazine #66 by Jim Murphy<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m trying to get some money together so I can build another pool in my backyard on the other side, so I can always have one full of water and always have one to skate.\u201d – ROB PALMER – Sept 2009 Juice Magazine #66 by Jim Murphy<\/p>\n

\u201cI nerded out on it and tried to see how high I could ollie. I tried to make it up two stairs and then three stairs. I\u2019d see how far up the stairway I could axle stall and see how high I could ollie. It\u2019s not like anyone set out to change anything. It was just hanging out and skateboarding.\u201d – NATAS KAUPAS – Sept 2009 Juice Magazine #66 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cI got more serious about building molds and learning how to press them. I built a press in my bedroom out of 2x6s, with a hydraulic car jack inside of it. Before that I pressed boards under the tire of my Mom\u2019s car.\u201d – PAUL SCHMITT – Sept 2009 Juice Magazine #66 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cSometimes ripping through the streets is the best thing you can do on your skateboard. There\u2019s something really freeing about it. It makes you feel different from the rest of the world. You get a unique view on things.\u201d – ANDY KESSLER – Sept 2009 Juice Magazine #66 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cSkateboarding has given me a life and being clean has helped me to enjoy it.\u201d – ANDY KESSLER – Sept 2009 Juice Magazine #66 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cO\u2019Mahoney had a contract for Wide World of Sports, which was a huge deal. There had never been a skateboarding event on national TV.\u201d – MIKE WEED – Sept 2009 Juice Magazine #66 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cThe hardest thing to duplicate is someone who is original. Be yourself. As long as you can be yourself and do what you want to do, you\u2019ll always be an original.\u201d – TIM JACKSON – Sept 2009 Juice Magazine #66 by Aaron Murray<\/p>\n

\u201cYou want to be able to say that you lived life to the fullest. When I\u2019m 70, I want to be able to say that I skated hard. I surfed a thousand days in my life. I wrote good movies. I had fun with my friends. I laughed. That\u2019s what drives me.\u201d – SCOTT CAAN – Sept 2009 Juice Magazine #66 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cThe infrastructure of America is totally destroyed. Rape is rampant. Poverty is everywhere. When I was filling out my kid\u2019s paperwork at school, it said, \u201cWhere do you live? Do you live in a house? Do you live in an apartment? Do you live in a car or a park?\u201d – JACK GRISHAM of T.S.O.L. – Sept 2009 Juice Magazine #66 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cThose were James Brown\u2019s favorite words. \u201cWe laid them in the aisles tonight!\u201d We would get on the bus and crack up about that. We had fun just wearing people out and making them dance.\u201d – BOOTSY COLLINS – Sept 2009 Juice Magazine #66 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cOn any given night, there would be Jane Fonda in one corner, Alice Cooper in the other corner, Warhol in another with David Bowie thrown in. It was just different because it all mixed and meshed together.\u201d – BEBE BUELL – Sept 2009 Juice Magazine #66 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cIf I see myself in a magazine, I\u2019m stoked. It just makes me want to try harder and get an even better shot. I don\u2019t see it as I\u2019m better. I see it as I need to try harder to get better shots.\u201d – KALANI DAVID – Sept 2009 Juice Magazine #66 by Jay Adams<\/p>\n

\u201cI want to be a pro skater. If that doesn\u2019t work out, I want to be a pro surfer. If that doesn\u2019t work out, I want to play in the NBA.\u201d – SHANE BORLAND – May 2010 Juice Magazine #67 by Jeff Ho<\/p>\n

\u201cI think I had an advantage because I skated so many skateparks and bowls and all that stuff. I could adapt to different things.\u201d \u2013 RICK MCCRANK – May 2010 Juice Magazine #67 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cI want to skate forever because skateboarding changed my life. You can\u2019t just leave something like that.\u201d – CHRIS HASLAM – May 2010 Juice Magazine #67 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cTo all of the kooks, creeps, naysayers, backstabbers, haters, and shit talkers, you have never stopped me from skating or diminished my love for it and you never will. I will continue to rip while you dwell in your own negative vortex.\u201d – BEN KRAHN – May 2010 Juice Magazine #67 by Mark Scott<\/p>\n

\u201cThat\u2019s why the dudes in the industry that are seriously killing it and getting all the buzz these days can skate everything and make it look really cool. The all-around dues that skate everything are the best in the biz.\u201d – GARETH STEHR – May 2010 Juice Magazine #67 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cBefore the skatepark, it was just sheer boredom.\u201d – DONOVAN RICE – May 2010 Juice Magazine #67 by Mark Scott<\/p>\n

\u201cYou have to be humble and skate your ass off and let your skating do the talking.\u201d – NEAL MIMS – May 2010 Juice Magazine #67 by Jeff Ho<\/p>\n

\u201cThe only way you wouldn\u2019t make the Mega Ramp gap is if you fell before you get to the launch ramp. If you\u2019re on that thing and you\u2019re falling before you get to the launch ramp, you probably shouldn\u2019t be on it in the first place.\u201d – ZACH MILLER – May 2010 Juice Magazine #67 by Eric Britton<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was, basically, the old surfer guys that were starting to skate in pools. They had waterskis and everything else. They were skating barefooted. It was like a blood bowl after about a month of skating in there because everyone lost skin in it.\u201d – CHRIS STROPLE – May 2010 Juice Magazine #67 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cYou go skate, find a pool, get some brews, go to the punk rock show, slam out, chase the honeys around and try to get lucky, and then do it all over again.\u201d – KEN FILLION – May 2010 Juice Magazine #67 by Jim Murphy<\/p>\n

\u201cMy goal was to one day have my own bowl. Now I\u2019m standing at the coping looking down. My goal wasn\u2019t to go pro. My goal was to have people around and enjoy it and share. I think they\u2019ve enjoyed it as much as I do.\u201d – DAVE TOBIN – May 2010 Juice Magazine #67 by Jim Murphy<\/p>\n

\u201cI want to make a concrete skatepark that goes from the top of the hill all the way to the museum that\u2019s so massive that people can fly over it and see it or look at it from outer space.\u201d – BREWCE MARTIN – May 2010 Juice Magazine #67 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cMy goal when I was 20 was to change the world. My goal wasn\u2019t to get famous or rich. My goal was to reorganize our art, culture, and music along the lines of what I thought young people wanted to hear and needed to know politically.\u201d – EXENE CERVENKA – May 2010 Juice Magazine #67 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was difficult for us to understand because we had grown up through the counter-culture where long hair was rebellious and short hair was not. Suddenly, what Malcolm McLaren and Richard Hell had done, in \u201873, was make short hair rebellious.\u201d – TONY JAMES – May 2010 Juice Magazine #67 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cThere are a lot of talented people out there. I do believe that you can do it with hard work, but it takes three things. You have to be talented. You have to have the breaks and you have to have the perseverance to sustain your success.\u201d – SUZI QUATRO- May 2010 Juice Magazine #67 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cI just love surfing and I appreciate it. I\u2019m not trying to take from it. I\u2019m trying to give to it more.\u201d – MATT ARCHBOLD- May 2010 Juice Magazine #67 by Dibi Fletcher<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve realized that those adrenaline rushes are what I live for.\u201d – DANNY FULLER – May 2010 Juice Magazine #67 by Dibi Fletcher<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s so much better to go to a town and actually skate someone\u2019s house and get in the scene, rather then just go to a hotel room. With everyone packed in a van, it\u2019s hard not to have\u00a0a good time. It\u2019s fun.\u201d – BEN RAYBOURN – Feb 2011 Juice Magazine #68 by Bill Danforth<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019d rather just go fast and skate and cruise. I just can\u2019t sit around and flip flop around. I need to be flowing.\u00a0That\u2019s my take on skateboarding. Just go faster, the faster the better.\u201d \u2013 ARTO SAARI – Feb 2011 Juice Magazine #68 by Christian Hosoi<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t mean to disrespect nobody, but what makes you an individual is to have your own style. You have to bring your own shit to the table. Even though people influenced you, you had to come up with your own shit.\u201d \u2013 HARRY JUMONJI – Feb 2011 Juice Magazine #68 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m not saying we were the first park builders. There were many in front of us. I am saying that we definitely put a fuckin\u2019 gnarly print on this earth with the shit that we did.\u201d \u2013 SHAGGY – Feb 2011 Juice Magazine #68 by Jim Murphy<\/p>\n

\u201cThis superficial, arti-fuckin\u2019-ficial world that we live in is ours for the taking. These people aren\u2019t strong enough to hold us back. They\u2019re trying to control and structure every inch of this universe and it isn\u2019t happening! It\u2019s our job as skateboarders to take it back.\u201d \u2013 SHAGGY – Feb 2011 Juice Magazine #68 by Jim Murphy<\/p>\n

\u201cI like to skate things that other people don\u2019t think of. I don\u2019t intentionally do it. I\u2019ve been skating for nearly 15 years and skateboarding doesn\u2019t get boring unless you\u2019re doing the same shit over and over.\u201d \u2013 JAKE DUNCOMBE – Feb 2011 Juice Magazine #68 by Jake Brown<\/p>\n

\u201cThe only weight I lift is when I pick up my skateboard to drop in.\u201d \u2013 GREYSON FLETCHER – Feb 2011 Juice Magazine #68 by Jason Jessee<\/p>\n

\u201cIf your kids want to skate, back them. The thing is, if you had a kid that wanted to be a basketball player, you would back them. If they wanted to be a football player, you would back Them. If he wants to be a skateboarder, back him.\u201d \u2013 TOM GROHOLSKI – Feb 2011 Juice Magazine #68 by Jim Murphy<\/p>\n

\u201cI just think there\u2019s nothing impossible in skateboarding.\u201d \u2013 SALBA – Feb 2011 Juice Magazine #68 by Jim Murphy<\/p>\n

\u201cSkateboarding, in my mind, is all about having your own style, personality and outlook.\u201d \u2013 OMAR HASSAN – Feb 2011 Juice Magazine #68 by Jim Murphy<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019d like to just devote the energies we have to bringing the fun back into skateboarding and making it a community.\u201d \u2013 GEORGE POWELL – Feb 2011 Juice Magazine #68 by Dan Levy<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u201cWe go to the shoot and he says, \u201cGeorge, we really need a helicopter. We have to have an aerial shot.\u201d I said, \u201cA helicopter?\u201d I\u2019m thinking a helicopter must have cost a billion dollars. I don\u2019t know. I said, \u201cOh, man. Okay. Go for it.\u201d \u2013 GEORGE POWELL – Feb 2011 Juice Magazine #68 by Dan Levy<\/p>\n

\u201cSkateboarding wants to be a backyard thing. It wants to remain illegal.\u201d \u2013 STACY PERALTA – Feb 2011 Juice Magazine #68 by Dan Levy<\/p>\n

\u201cMy effort is to diligently try to commit as many irreconcilable errors as possible.\u201d \u2013 CRAIG STECYK III – Feb 2011 Juice Magazine #68 by Terri Craft<\/p>\n

\u201cI make art, because I have to… and that\u2019s it. To let it be known…. the message that is.\u201d \u2013 STEVE OLSON – Feb 2011 Juice Magazine #68 by Terri Craft<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was basically the reverse of the Devil Wears Prada. The girl goes into CBGBs in a mink coat and at the end of the movie she comes out in a black leather jacket.\u201d – LEGS MCNEIL – Feb 2011 Juice Magazine #68 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cThe London scene was pretty good. The Sex Pistols and the Clash were it. Not only did Malcolm steal the scene, the music was great. They were trying to be even more punk than we were in New York. We weren\u2019t trying to be punks in New York. We just were.\u201d – LEGS MCNEIL – Feb 2011 Juice Magazine #68 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s all about specialties. Find what you\u2019re into and then fucking getting good at it.\u201d – CHUCK DUKOWSKI- Feb 2011 Juice Magazine #68 by Christian Fletcher<\/p>\n

\u201cYou\u2019re just out there with you and the water and the board. You\u2019re not competing against anybody else.\u201d – GIGDET AKA KATHY KOHNER ZUCKERMAN – Feb 2011 Juice Magazine #68 by Jeff Ho<\/p>\n

\u201cWe just saw what the Burnside dudes did and we were like, \u201cWe can do this.\u201d – CARLOS BAIZA – FDR – Dec 2011 Juice Magazine #69 by Jim Murphy<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Northeast vert skater is his own separate beast. There are tons of them too. There are tons of guys who still go skate the Peanut bowl and hang out until the vert session starts.\u201d – GEORGE DRAGUNS – Dec 2011 Juice Magazine #69 by Jim Murphy<\/p>\n

\u201cThe funny thing about FDR, and every cement park that has been renegade-built, is it\u2019s a part of history now. FDR could be there for 100 years. It\u2019s weird to think that a bunch of scrapper skaters were stoked and built this thing.\u201d – DAN TAG – Dec 2011 Juice Magazine #69 by Jim Murphy<\/p>\n

\u201cAnything you do out of love is not a chore. I don\u2019t call skateboarding work.\u201d – FRED SMITH – Dec 2011 Juice Magazine #69 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cI love setting coping. I\u2019m telling you, when that pallet of pool coping shows up, it\u2019s like porn to me.\u201d – CHRIS MEARKLE – Dec 2011 Juice Magazine #69 by Jim Murphy<\/p>\n

\u201cThat\u2019s how we learned to skate street. It\u2019s like you\u2019re going from this ramp to this ramp. They might be five miles apart, but there\u2019s a curb here, so you do a board slide on it. You didn\u2019t stop and session. You just hit it one time on the way to the ramp.\u201d – J.J. ROGERS – Dec 2011 Juice Magazine #69 by Andy Roy<\/p>\n

\u201cThe punk thing about it isn\u2019t actually the band or the music. It\u2019s the mystery of what might happen at the end of the night that makes it real and keeps bringing them back.\u201d – RAY \u201cBONES\u201d RODRIGUEZ – Dec 2011 Juice Magazine #69 by Dan Levy<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you choose to work on the streets, you have to be open to things. All skaters work on the avenues. That\u2019s where they exist; I\u2019m not speaking art platitudes or any sort of conceptual blather here. But you go ride down the street, and you\u2019ve got to remain open to whatever happens.\u201d – CRAIG STECYK III – Dec 2011 Juice Magazine #69 by Dan Levy<\/p>\n

\u201cThe seats on the bus aren\u2019t any different than the seats on a private jet. You get about the same amount of lumbar support.\u201d – CRAIG STECYK III – Dec 2011 Juice Magazine #69 by Dan Levy<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen the great power shortage comes and destroys the digital archive of the country and there are no more petrol chemicals available at your gas station for your drive around, you\u2019re going to find out that pedestrians and skateboarders and bike riders will inherit the universe.\u201d – CRAIG STECYK III – Dec 2011 Juice Magazine #69 by Dan Levy<\/p>\n

\u201cThe fact that it evolved out of a stone age pursuit makes skateboarding a more interesting activity than baseball.\u201d – CRAIG STECYK III – Dec 2011 Juice Magazine #69 by Dan Levy<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you look at something that goes back thousands of years in Polynesia, which surfing obviously does, that was back before they had sports. It was a time when they only had activities that were spiritually and significantly important to the culture.\u201d – CRAIG STECYK III – Dec 2011 Juice Magazine #69 by Dan Levy<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t think about sports at all. I would be more inclined to dissect skateboarding as a viable form of alternative transportation. I don\u2019t think it needs to be anything other than what it is. I think it\u2019s just fine being a functional art. Being a sport, it just ends up being something else.\u201d – CRAIG STECYK III – Dec 2011 Juice Magazine #69 by Dan Levy<\/p>\n

\u201cI was carving over the light in the pool before I could skate down the street. When I was skating down the street, I would get to a corner and pick my board up and turn it the other way around the corner and then go.\u201d – CHAD MUSKA – Dec 2011 Juice Magazine #69 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cSkateboarding is about just skating everything you can as hard as you can. You can\u2019t hold back.\u201d – ELI REED – Dec 2011 Juice Magazine #69 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m just glad that hardcore vert skating is still alive and a layback grind is still appreciated. You don\u2019t have to be the flip twirly 720 freaking master and do everything switch. You can just dive in and grind and find some lines.\u201d – STEVE HERRING – Dec 2011 Juice Magazine #69 by Jim Murphy<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen pools came around, that became my love. I wanted to be a good all around skater. There were guys that could skate pools, but couldn\u2019t skate freestyle. There were guys that could skate freestyle and couldn\u2019t skate pools. I could do both.\u201d – DENNIS MARTINEZ – Dec 2011 Juice Magazine #69 by Jay Adams<\/p>\n

\u201cI push it because that\u2019s who I am. If someone else doesn\u2019t want to live life to the fullest, that\u2019s fine. They can go safely into their little home and put a helmet on and do whatever they want, but I\u2019m living.\u201d – SHANE ALLEN – Dec 2011 Juice Magazine #69 by Dan Levy<\/p>\n

\u201cIt doesn\u2019t matter to me if it\u2019s 200 or 20,000 people. I\u2019m going to get close to the people. They\u2019re going to get close to me.\u201d – GEORGE THOROGOOD – Dec 2011 Juice Magazine #69 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cWe all have that southern California kid growing up at the beach kind of mentality. At times, you\u2019re laid back. At times, you\u2019re jumping off the end of the pier.\u201d – KEITH MORRIS\u00a0 <\/span>– Dec 2011 Juice Magazine #69 by Jay Adams<\/p>\n

\u201cWe were part of a radical political group and we took a militant stance against the establishment and made some very bad decisions. One of them was that violence could be used to make positive change. It was a mistake we made. We thought we were doing the right thing, but as it turns out, it was an error in our thinking and somebody blew up the CIA office. I didn\u2019t plant the bomb, but somebody did.\u201d – WAYNE KRAMER\u00a0 <\/span>– Dec 2011 Juice Magazine #69 by Jason Jessee<\/p>\n

\u201cWe kicked out the guy that was paying rent to live there. We were like, \u201cYou have to go. We\u2019re building a ramp in your room.\u201d – THE BOARDLORDS\u00a0 <\/span>– Dec 2011 Juice Magazine #69 by Merk<\/p>\n

\u201cOccupy your life. There\u2019s just so much out there to see and do. Don\u2019t limit yourself to anything. There\u2019s a whole wealth of knowledge out there. You have to learn through experience.\u201d –\u00a0 <\/span>WILLY AKERS – Nov 2012 Juice Magazine #70 by The Confessor<\/p>\n

\u201cYou have to find a really good place that\u2019s comfortable for you as a business, where everybody is making a good living and everybody is having fun. If you\u2019re not having fun in the skateboard business, get the fuck out.\u201d –\u00a0 <\/span>RICHARD NOVAK – Nov 2012 Juice Magazine #70 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cThat\u2019s really how you stay ahead in this game. You find great people, treat them the best you can and wake up every day and do what has never been done.\u201d –\u00a0 <\/span>RICHARD NOVAK – Nov 2012 Juice Magazine #70 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cThe skateboarding community will drag you out of the bottom of a pool.\u201d –\u00a0 <\/span>DAVE TUCK – Nov 2012 Juice Magazine #70 by Merk<\/p>\n

\u201cSeeing your friends there and getting to skate something cool is fun. On the other hand, winning money is good because then I get to build more at my house.\u201d –\u00a0 <\/span>KEVIN KOWALSKI – Nov 2012 Juice Magazine #70 by Mark Scott<\/p>\n

\u201cThere were no limits to what you could progress to in skateboarding, because it\u2019s such a creative sport. That\u2019s where the thing that separates skateboarding from a lot of other sports. It\u2019s an artistic sport that applies itself to its surroundings.\u201d –\u00a0 <\/span>STEVE CABALLERO – Nov 2012 Juice Magazine #70 by Dan Levy<\/p>\n

\u201cWhatever you have a passion for in life is what makes life happen.\u201d – JIMMY GANZER – June 2013 Juice Magazine #71 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cI make my kids have punk rock moments. They have to sit with me and watch YouTube of the Dead Kennedys, they have to do it. I\u2019m like, \u201cNo, there\u2019s no option. You\u2019re going to sit here and watch the Dead Kennedys right now because this is punk rock.\u201d –\u00a0 <\/span>DEREK KRASAUSKAS – Nov 2012 Juice Magazine #70 by Jim Murphy<\/p>\n

\u201cThere was supposed to be a full pipe and pools that they never built. All in all, they accidentally made a dream come true with the snake run. The builder knew what he was trying to do, but he didn\u2019t realize what skateboarding would do with it. It became a full on ollie training ground. We were just flying over these hips everywhere.\u201d\u00a0– ALLEN LOSI – June 2013 Juice Magazine #71 by Jim Murphy<\/p>\n

\u201cMalcolm always encouraged us to write our own stuff. When I was just learning guitar, I had a short attention span, and when you try and learn a song, you do the first few chords and it\u2019s easy and then it gets more complicated and you say, \u201cFuck that,\u201d and you end up doing your own version. Pretty soon, you\u2019re doing your own song, so it\u2019s easy.\u201d\u00a0– GLEN MATLOCK of SEX PISTOLS – June 2013 Juice Magazine #71 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re not encouraged to grow up. Youth is like the drug. You don\u2019t want to look old. You don\u2019t want to seem old. It\u2019s so strange. Your body is telling you one thing and your mind is telling you another, and you\u2019re tearing yourself apart. So I am getting older, but I have a youthful outlook on life.\u201d – JAMES HETFIELD of METALLICA – June 2013 Juice Magazine #71 by Steve Caballero<\/p>\n

\u201cSkateboarding is an individual sport. You basically master being a lone wolf. Being a lone wolf, you learn that there is so much more appreciation for yourself, your thoughts and your time. That\u2019s why most people that really excel in anything don\u2019t have a lot of wasted time or wasted people around them. They tend to gather with people that are likeminded and making things happen in their lives and then they thrive off each other. Those are the kinds of people that I met in skateboarding.\u201d – JERRY VALDEZ – June 2013 Juice Magazine #71 by Steve Olson<\/p>\n

\u201cI learned that it\u2019s not just about the skating that can help promote what you\u2019re doing. I learned about treating people well and giving back. I learned about being a team manager or a team curator, and how much it means to believe in someone and believe in their effort.\u201d – TONY HAWK – June 2013 Juice Magazine #71 by Dan Levy<\/p>\n
