“I’ve been doing concrete work for about fifteen years. It was just a job and had never occurred to me to use my knowledge of concrete for skateboarding until I met the Vagabond crew. Since then I’ve had my hands in a few projects. I did most of the setup work on my own, starting with the first quarter pipe. I then built another quarter pipe with a hip directly across from it. Then I started digging a hole. I couldn’t make it very big, but it had started to catch on. After that, I got some help thanks to a few friends who donated their time and sponsors for donating product. Anyone can do it. Get out there and build!” – Gene Boles
