Let's not forget that it was Dale "Sausage Man" Smith (1970s freestyle legend and leading collector of skateboard memorabilia) who first worked out the mechanics of moves like the frontside rock-n-roll and frontside invert and then coached Elguera into mastering them.     Rate post 187715 !

Here's another question, and I don't know the answer. Who is credited with the first frontside rock and rolls? (a far more insane trick, imho.)     Rate post 187660 !

I remember running into them at a couple pools and some races and they were a kick-butt crew. Where are they now?     Rate post 187270 !

Tim was the first to showcase the trick at one of the Hester series events. Tim is a great guy and never said he invented the trick. It was actually invented by a skater who I think went by the name of Justin. Sorry, but I don't know his last name. This is a trick from the 70s. Justin was trying to do successful Rock and Rolls at Rohnert Park skate park on a day that Tim Marting, myself and other friends went there to skate. Justin could do one or two out of the fifty plus he was trying. A few minutes later, Tim Marting had the trick wired and was pulling off Rock and Rolls time after time, effortlessly. Tim got the credit, but it was this other guy Justin who had the creative idea. True story, Cliff Coleman     Rate post 186734 !

I couldn't think of a better way to spend a birthday and I hope you just plain kill it. I spent my 51st this year at Breck on sunday racing ts in the pro class for a 16th and remember having one killer run against Barker that really made my day. Happy birthday bro!

On 10/15/2004 Cliff Coleman wrote in from United States  (68.127.nnn.nnn) Rene, You have been waiting for the day when you could race and BEAT me in slalom. You did it in the tight slalom. Congrats for your effort! You practice and it has made a huge difference in your racing. Thanks also for the photos and cartoons that you post for all of us. The greatest skater of the 60s in my opinion, Rudy Esquer, 1965 Northern California Skateboard Champion, is also very talented as a cartoonist. He worked with Charles Schultz for years and also with the creator of "Wee Pals" the first integrated, sindicated strip. He now lives in Maui. He, myself and two others that skated together in 1963 have a reunion about once a year. You are a class act, as are all of the Carrascos! Cliff Coleman     Rate post 185948 !
