Skatepark daycare...
The first issue of Broketape took over a year, with umpteen edits and various music choices. Finally, after I moved to Taos ... two hours from the skate scene I was dedicated to covering, things finally got moving.
In issues Two and Three, new parks were opening up, new friends were being made, and the guard of the Albuquerque scene seemed to be changing. As exciting as it was, this period of time was bitter-sweet. I gained more experience as a father ... and another child, yet lost my Mother. Looking back on it now, these are some of the best clips because of all the stuff that was going on. I submerged myself in this project as a way to deal with life. I'm really glad I had this outlet.
So, without further a-do, "Behind the Tape, episode two - Baby Steps"
Skaters: Ian Preut (mostly. He was seriously ripping at this time!), Xander Rentz, Tony Tomita, Rob Palmer, Charles Fletcher, Max Rentz, Chris Cumber, Dan Garcia, Gordy Cousino, and Steven Lovato.
Music: Them - "Gloria"
