G & S Amateur Team 1988.
The Future.
This has been sitting on my computer for a few years and I'd never gotten around to posting it for some reason. It's the G & S team after the NSA 1988 Amateur Championships.
Mark would soon turn pro and become one of the new wave of street skaters changing the landscape of skateboarding.
Blaize would also turn pro. He was an excellent vert shredder who sadly passed away in a car accident in 1999.
Eric and Mark were later sponsored by former G & S pro Chris Miller when he started Planet Earth.
In addition to being sponsored, Mike was a graphic designer at G & S before leaving to launch the Alien Workshop with Chris Carter. The two worked together on the Footage video.
Derek Rinaldi rode for Shut and Think. He's still involved in skateboarding today and helps run the Skate Daily website.
