Kenny Anderson #5.



Get a crooked grind on.

Kenny was pro for Planet Earth and needed a truck sponsor so he rode for Mercury. He was added to the team early on in 1998. At some point he switched over to Independent, if I recall correctly.

Chris Miller reportedly had boxes of Mercurys leftover and was so used to them that he kept on riding dead stock long after Planet Earth closed up shop. I think this statement was buried in an interview in the Skateboard Mag that nobody other than me will remember.

Chris Ortiz created the photograph.
