Scott Stephens - Pre Roller Derby Daze
The Skates were on 24/7 which lead to some interesting but not so safe ideas......
Up and......
.......Over
On the streets of the San Fernando Valley, Los Angeles
Jumping at 40 mph
After skating the Blvd's, freeway skating was the next, illogical step...
Entrance to the Ventura (101) Freeway in Los Angeles
Entering the Ventura Freeway
Notice the cars in the background keeping their distance
The skate wheels would become too hot to touch afterwards and got grinded down quickly
The 18 year old driver of this car, Rick Margolis, became an attorney
Rick got ticketed and eventually would no longer toe, so.. had to find someone else.......
A frickin' Olds Station Wagon with woody side panels. As long as it could do 70mph....
Scotty's Freeway skating only lasted a few months as eventually the drivers were getting traffic violations
The skater (Scotty) only got a pedestrian ticket
Always hoping we didn't have to brake quickly
Happy to be alive!
All due respect to Billy Marshall, but at 65 MPH, THIS is HOT WHEELS! Smoke-it!
