Mike Carroll & Rick Howard
November 9, 2009

In case you don't know, Mike Carroll & Rick Howard are 2 of the most respected, most influential, most inspirational and most stylized skateboarders in our world today. There will never ever be another Mike Carroll & Rick Howard, as far as I'm concerned.
We are blessed to have these 2 skateboarders skateboarding in our era.
They are most definitely your favorite skateboarders' favorite skateboarder! No doubt.

I had the chance to meet Mike for the first time back in 2000, fast forward 9 years later, he came to Hong Kong for the second time along with his partner in crime, Mr Rick Howard. I met Rick last year in Shen Zhen when he was filming for Fully Flared (the most successful skateboarding video). I'm seriously grateful that I can meet these 2 living legends in person (still killin it on their skateboards) and one important thing for sure, both Rick & Mike are 2 of the most real genuine cats alive, true skateboarders, I truly respect that. So good to see them both out here in Hong Kong.

We had a chance to walk around Mong Kok and checked out some shit.

Mike & Rick, next time you come back to HK, the skate session is on! ONE LOVE.

PS: Also, they're both responsible for GIRL / CHOCOLATE / LAKAI / FOUR STAR / ROYAL / RUBY'S / CRAILTAP (all the ill shit)

    Within the context of school activiities, baseball, etc. his son has earned a reputation for being "strange". Another word which could be used is "disturbed".
    I'm afraid one day he's going to "snap".
    Soldier has been told in no uncertain terms to "keep your son away from my child".
    They tell me some of these concerned parents have called Child Protective Services regarding this issue.
    Dad has showed his 7 year old son hard pornography in an attempt to ensure he doesn't become gay. Ironically, now the boy has a fascination with penis. Appropriate, because they say dad gets excited with trannys::::He wants to lift her skirt and fondle her penis.
    He sure married the right girl.
    Dad intends to take the boy to see a prostitute.
    They say the son wants the father dead.
    Parenting classes would be in order. And a little psychoanalysis.
    The Gods tested his attraction to transsexuals by sending people by, likely during the period where he felt he had to prove he was a "real man", ironically.
    He's Godless and immoral, and his son may grow to be a monster because of it.
