Well, we are back, huh? We're back at the 9th Club everybody today. We have a very special.

Special. Special guest, Mr. Mike Santa Rosa is with us. How are you, dude? Doing good.

Hey, thank you so much for coming. Appreciate that. Thank you for having me.

Reminiscent here, bro. Yeah.

Man, we were just reminiscing before the show. Well, it happens a lot.

We're like, okay, let's, we got to save this for the show, but it always happens where we start talking and stuff.

And it can't help it.

And not only was the Palskade Zone, I mean, we're just going to jump into it because was it monumental for me,

monumental for Geron, but also monumental for you as well.

Big, big. Come up. Yes.

And you lived literally across the street. Right.

So that was huge in your, but you were already kind of doing it at that point, right?

I mean, you were entering contests and stuff to a degree. Yeah. Yeah.

It was, I mean, I grew up in Galita, Santa Barbara, Galita, Santa Barbara area.

Frankie Hill lives down the street from us, like for me.

So after school, go down to his house, we go street skating for about a year before the Skate Zone actually opened up to the public.

All the elements were outside for a while and we would go skate there some days and then we'd go street skating and stuff like that.

How did, I mean, you went to school, Frankie Hill.

He was a senior when I was a freshman. Oh, wow.

So we would sit at lunch and look at that huge gap and he would tell me he was going to jump down it and be like, dude, you're crazy.

What you're thinking? The one that he all eat, grabbed down there.

What did you guys talk about? He would tell, like he told you how he looked at it at lunch. Yeah. I was with him.
