Hi Bucky! I'm a single mom in Baltimore and one of my sons is a budding skater, nothing serious just skates for fun. I have always enjoyed watching great skaters like yourself and been envious of the freedom and ability that skaters have. Its a vicarious thing for me. Anyway, anytime I see news articles or interviews regarding skateboarding, they always grab my attention. Long story short-are you involved in Skateistan? The story about teaching boys and girls to skate in Afghanistan really touched my heart-what can I do here in Baltimore to help this organization? Check them out www.skateistan.org. Thanks for your time-I wish you continued success and thanks for staying in Baltimore btw!
