Welcome to the Team

I'm so glad skateboarding went full steam straight south through hell
in the direction of crusty, filthy, alcohol-fueled raging after a few
silly companies/individuals in the 80's tried to make it little league.
If you're interested at all in today's 80's activities, you'll know that Motobilt
was a truck company back then. While not really fully legit, they were also nowhere
near as wack as Tracker and Z-Roller. Still, from what I remember, they were almost
at the level of a respected truck.
Check out the full letter that they sent to people they sponsor that finishes up with, "Our job together is to show people that skating is also a very classy sport!" Wow. Puke.
Thanks Mike Sinclair for sending over this entertainment.
