A Punker's Romance!!!

SO by popular demand.. (Mainly just Isaac wanting to see it!) hahah..
It has been quite some time since i have watched this and it makes me smile...
This was a film my buddy Robert and the gang did of me and the Death Weasel Films team back in like '97 or something..
Good times..... Wish i skated better back then and my voiceovers were actually worth listening to...
but we were kids and we thought we knew it all....
BUT what i can attribute this to is a long and amazing friendship with Isaac "Nancy" Kenyon and the gang..
WE sure did have a good time making this and met some great guys!!!
Yeah Shane Rueter even made some clips...
Thank you all who helped make this film.. YES it was shot on film!!!! Boy that was a pretty penny!!!
