I like to ride skateboards.

In 1975, I got my first skateboard. It was a solid oak Super Surfer with clay, loose ball-bearing wheels. 1976 I skated my first contest at Barrie Ave in Tallahassee where I met some of my life-long friends. In 1977, SiO (Skateboards inside Out) was the skate shop that became our 2nd home. Barry Z. also made the skateboard specific shorts and hip pads called SiO that were famously worn by skaters world-wide.
