Since 1986 Mike Vallely has been an inspiration and hero of mine. I can't think of any one pro skateboarder that hits the nail one the head of what "skateboarding" is and should be about. He skates from his heart and isn't afraid to speak his mind of the industry that supports him. A true revolutionary in a time when the status quo is to fall in line and pick up your check. His skating speaks for itself, his music and poetry speak volumes about the man and his beliefs. I'm happy to have been able to see him skate in person and shake his hand when I was a busted up sixteen year old kid from the midwest. Thanks "Jersey Mike" for caring about the soul of skating...
