		As of today, I no longer look at or refer to myself as a "Professional Skateboarder." That title, those words (Professional Skateboarder) don't mean anything to me anymore, I can't help but feel that they no longer apply to who and what I am.
		These guys aren't skateboarders anymore, they're businessmen, "athletes" -they just happen to be good at what they do and they are lucky enough to make a living doing it.
		And I wouldn't even care, except that this empty generation of skateboard professionals has the responsibility of bringing up the next generation of skaters, and from where I'm standing that's a frightening prospect.

		Skateboarding as a social activity contributes to communication between all races, genders, ages and creeds.
		Hand-painted skateboards and independent filmmaking are opportunities for artists to develop their work, and to build relationships with sponsors and patrons who encourage their expression.
		Thus, LOP skateboards have three levels of value: the first as a fully functional skateboard deck, the second as a one-of-a-kind piece of artwork, and the third is part of a social program that gets skateboards to kids.
