The Stoned Spork.
Elijah is from Lewiston, Maine. He recently turned pro for Black Label. He also rides for OJ Wheels and Indy. His spot selections tend toward a mix of ditches, natural transitions, pools, and the crusty streets. Elijah will do some surprising H-Street style tech moves as well as throw in a few Neil Blender inspired handouts. I bought his pro t-shirt last month because I like the Black Label, which has now been chugging along for a quarter century. Elijah gets a few bonus points for using Sonic Youth in his video part.

They need more than one video angle of that parts last Ollie...
I thought there was a My War for this in Thrasher, but I couldn't find it. I either imagined it or it ran longer ago than I realized. Or it's in the new issue. I don't know. I keep thinking there were articles or interviews for stuff and then I can't find them.
Remember in college those books that had all the listings of research articles? What were they called? Abstracts? We need that for skateboarding.
There was a My War in the September 2022 issue of Thrasher. The still photo is shot from the front so you see Elijah coming at you.
I knew I wasn't making this up.
