Ricky Winsor #2.



Sacramento local and Sam Cunningham's skate buddy.

Bob Schmelzer was the man behind Circle A. They were a mix of punk rock, street skating and freestyle. Their ads always stood out from what everybody else was doing. I never had any of the boards and the punk rock imagery scared the small town 15 year old me a bit, but I thought they were a neat company.

RIP Andy Kessler.

I don't know too much about him, but from what I've read on the internet, it looks like skateboarding lost another good one.
