Cody Boat

I've known Cody for quite some time now. We lived one neighborhood away from each other in Tempe, Arizona and would frequently skate ABCO with the homies. We met probably around 1986-87ish as he was better known as "The G&S Wonder Kid" He musta been around 9 years old when riding for the same company as Neil Blender, Chris Miller, Billy Ruff, ect....
Yup, we grew up in the Launch Ramp days doing 360 Judos, Huge ollie airs, Methods, Japans, and yes.....We put that ramp up the the walls and got down! Ah the good ol days! Well, 25+ years later, we still hang and skate together, play some music and put that Ol'Launch Ramp up to the walls. Sure, we've gotten older and life around us has changed, but one thing that hasn't.......Is the good times being had on a skateboard with a good ol launch ramp, some curbs, and the homies on a lazy "Slappie Sunday" I am fully convinced that the skateboard is the key to staying Strong, Healthy and Young!

Here (25 or so years later) Cody "The CREATURE Skateboards Wonder Dude" Boat hits the wall with a B/S Air off the edge Portland, Oregon 2012 "Yeah Boat!!!"
