Tampa Pro 2009

Greg Lutzka was this years winner at the 2009 Tampa Pro. This is his third first place victory in Tampa Pro competitons. The line up of all the great skaters was amazing. There were amazing pro's from Keegan Sauder, and Pete Eldridge, to Nick Dompierre, and Paul Rodriguez. Greg Lutzka is known for his 360's down stair sets, and big gaps, and also his 270 variations in and out of grinds and slides, which deffinately give him an advantage in competitions. There were even a few wild cards that were thrown into the competition, but in the end the judges ended up picking Lutzka as the winner and it was flawless runs and technical tricks that won him the competition. http://skateboarding.transworld.net

Man returns to war after violating sanctions

A Coshocton man failed to follow guidelines imposed by the Coshocton County Common Pleas Court and now will be sent to prison, and he already had two years of community control sanctions competed too. Brian Foster was sentenced to nine months in prison by judge Richard Evans. In August 2006 Brian Foster was indicted on theft charges and was convicted in March 2007, he was sentenced to 120 days in jail and was also sentenced to three years of community service. I think that these are some pretty easy punishments for the crime that he did, but then he went off and had a misdomeaner and was caught using crack-cocaine so the nine months in prison is still an easy puishment for his crime. www.coshoctontribune.com

Skate season

Skateboarding season is coming up even though there is no specific season for skateboarding because everyone does it all year round, but now it is the begining of March and it should start to get warm soon and then more people will be out skating again. I personally skate all year round in any kind of temperature, as a matter of fact i was skating last night in the 10 degree weather for an hour. It is because i am really commited to skateboarding and not a lot of people will skate in the cold weather but i will just because i love the sport. When it gets warmer out i will be out everyday all day skating with my friends.
