		<b>Alvab>, Adams, Biniak, Jim Muir, and I were skating the Devonshire pool deep in the San Fernando Valley.
		In fact, the reason I mention Caballero and Hosoi in the same breath as <b>Alvab> and Adams is because these four skaters have something that very few possess: they skate with the least amount of resistance.
		Jay Adams is probably not the greatest skater of all time, but I can say without fear of being wrong that he is clearly the archetype of modern-day skateboarding.

		Peralta and <b>Alvab> became well paid competitive skateboarders with endorsements, sponsorships and exhibitions, but fame and jealousy strained their friendship.

	Silver Chips Online
		<b>Alvab> becomes blinded by fame and the better life he believes it will bring, while Adams shows a darker side, releasing his anger violently, not only because he realizes the world he has been sucked into, but because he is frustrated at his dead-beat, partying mother and the man who left her.
		This transition in skateboarding is shown in "Lords of Dogtown" starring Stacy Peralta (John Robinson), Tony <b>Alvab> (Victor Rusak) and Jay Adams (Emile Hirsch), the original members of the Zephyr Team.
		<b>Alvab>'s rash decision-making comes to a climax when he almost sacrifices his career for the chance to hit an opponent, severely damaging his left eye.

		This Adams family was from southern Colorado, so it's natural to assume that Adams State College in the seat of what is now Colorado's penultimate county was also named for one of the Alvas.
