Yeah, he’s still out in Oakland afaik. I think Ed and Simon were on Experience at the same time.
I remember Ed had an ad for Simple in TWS. Steezed out backtail on a ledge iirc.
He didn’t get a great deal of coverage but was sick. He had a check out in RAD, and this is from fuzzy old memory, doing a frontnose on the South bank wearing some brown Pumas, blue jeans cut off a little too high, maybe a zero sophisto shirt and a two tone cap. Mentions having just come back from SF having skated EMB with Henry Sanchez and then something about Skittles being G-rubbin.
Oh yeah, that’s jogged it, Lampins eh? For some reason I thought they were Clydes. Blue and white stripey boxers too. He also looked deathly thin and pale, hehe. Certain photos just seem to make an impression and stick with you. Funny how the brain works.
Just listened to the Billy Marks one, some good stories in there but a few too many ‘fuckin’s in there, didn’t ruin it exactly but would’ve appreciated a few of them being edited out. The Russian contest story was nuts.
Chandler and Billy episodes are so comically opposed to each other.
Billy comes across as having zero self awareness and is abit of a miserable wretch.
Chandler seems like he would be super fun to hang out with and can laugh at himself and others equally
Billy just wants to have left his Mark(s) on skateboarding and go down as a significant progressive dude but unfortunately he’s not really remembered for that.
