Wow this guy was blowing up the fledging street scene in the late 80's. Natas was THE ollie master. Fire hydrants and garbage cans no problem for Natas. Check out his board in the first Sanata Cruz Video, it has no nose and no concave. Looks like it was cut out of some plywood. Sick! The other great thing Natas did was introduce me to fIREHOSE.
Hey Bro
I remember Natas. Man he was the ollie king. What about Ron Kanoley? Was that his name? Or Ron Kanoy? He was a black guy with hige dreds and he always wore the huge limpies pants.
I am a 36 year old skater dad. I skate with my 8 year old and am currently building him a 12/4 miniramp. I skate a mike vallely. I have always skated his and ed templeton decks.
Any footage of templeton?
Anyway, thanks for posting!
God Bless

I had many Natas boards… at first I thought they were weird because they literally had no nose (maybe like an inch). But once I started riding them I loved them.
