My friend Vinny and I used to skate at the Anaheim Convention Center when we were teens before they "skate proofed" the place. I took these in 1977 I believe. Vince was much better than I was as you can see from these photos. He is riding a Banzai aluminum board with Sims wheels and Bennett trucks and he is wearing Vans, OP shorts and a "Go For It!" movie iron on t-shirt.
