Ed Templeton #24.



Cover Model.

It's a little odd to see Ed flying around over transitions. He also wanted to use After School Special as a title at first instead of Welcome To Hell. It's probably for the best it wasn't called that. His part has a lot of the usual Ed tricks - there are a plenty of feeble grinds and nose bluntslides. He even fits in a perfect backside tailslide into a line.

Happy Thanksgiving, Canada.

If you look at Ed from head to toe, a lot of kids look exactly like this now: canvas shoes, high-water Dickie's, and a haircut with a part in it. Whereas Ed was truly hated for not looking like everyone else , and let's not forget the He-Man Ed haters club.

True. He did catch a lot of flack since he wasn't looking all that fresh. I never tried to dress like him back then, but I did relate to what he was doing more since I was in college and studying art. I maybe should have. Meh. Definitely a precursor to what some of the kids are wearing these days.
