    Wiz umpires youth baseball in Fort Walton Beach and works for the city. Super influential to our youth. As of 8/17/23

    Thank You All. Gulf Coast SKATE Review was fun and a stepping stone to my career in photography and writing.

  • Tameria – Clint still lives in Panama City – I can’t give out his number, but he’s there and just built a new ramp.

    Looking for an old Hanahan High School friend. His name is Clint Deaton. Just wondering if this is him. He’d be 50 now and he loved to skate. Please contact me by email. Does anyone know where he is or how to contact him?

  • got any naughty nomads?

  • M.Crescini on the cover. Just saw a good photo of him doing a nice Egg at Trashmore. I also remember riding a ramp in FT Walton about 88. The kids dad raised Crawdads and sold them to restaurants. I had to get a Notorized letter to ride. Great ramp. We `rode with a kid named WIZ he was awesome.
