Ed Templeton is street skating through and through.
In the first part of our new three part video series the Ed Templeton Scrapbook, Ed considers the state of skateboarding today.
His earliest memories include skating the local P.O. kerb with Mark Gonzales when Huntington Beach was the epicentre of a culture just finding its feet.
Now mainstream skating is a multimillion dollar entertainment industry, but the underground culture of art, creativity and alienation that first attracted him is still alive and well on the streets.
