I’ve probably told this one before, but I still remember it like yesterday - the h-street hokus pokus tour demo in Leicester: shippo turns up in the freshest stussy red gold and green tee, and proceeds to totally wreck shop. I’d never seen him before and just assumed he was already pro. He skated way better than the entire team including Hensley, and I remember looking at them checking him out with embarrassed expressions. I always wondered if they tried to pick him up that day. I was totally in awe.
After the demo there was a prem of the vid in town, which was amazing. I ended up getting the biggest bollocking after missing the bus home and my mum getting our neighbour to go out looking for me in his car. Ah, the mammaries!
