Akira Mowatt.

I dig how Zoo York had a few guys with mysterious names on the team, like Loki and Akira. It added to the mystique of company and made you curious about life in the big city. Akira is from Okinawa, Japan. His family moved to New York in the mid 1990s. He met up with Harold Hunter and really got hooked on skateboarding after that. He had appearances in the assorted Zoo York videos of the day.

I'm running Tahoe 26.3 on the new iMac and updating on Blogspot is a pain. Safari won't let me upload pictures or log out cleanly. Firefox will let me upload pictures, but I can't log out cleanly. The site doesn't display properly in Firefox either. The fonts look thin and anything in italics is in bold italics. Is there another browser I should be using?

Giovanni Reda was the photographer.
