Thunder & lighting.
Jeff is from NYC. He rode for Shut, Underworld Element, Cream, and Zoo York. In addition to being pro for Zoo, he also served as their team manager. Later on Jeff would work at DC Shoes in the same capacity. He was working as an electrician and not skateboarding as much when Andy Howell offered him a spot on Underworld Element. There was also a chance Jeff might have gotten on Blind in the early days, but he politely declined out of loyalty to Shut.
It was warm and sunny yesterday with the always present high winds. I gave driveway skateboarding a go after work. I wasn't really landing much and was worn out, but I wanted to get outside since the weather looks cold and wet going forward.

His "Pang Starr" shirt was a holy grail I could never track down here in Canada.
I don't know if I ever saw that one. Supposedly they photoshopped a pot leaf off his shirt for his Thrasher cover.
I'm out sick with a head cold so no updates. I'm hoping to be back for Friday.
