Ralph Murphy, the Pirate.. what can you say about Ralph? You could write a best selling novel about Ralph's life. Born in NH, grew up skating all over the East, moved to Brooklyn, NY where he lives with his wife and Paris Hiltonish dog named Dracula. Ralph is one of the best and will pressure flip you under the table any day! Ralph rides for Oakley, EB, and Substance Skateboards.
DANA ERICKSON -4th Year Coach
Dana was very upset last year because we gave him a hard time about being a little bit gangsta in his choice of music and dress code. We even gave him the name D-Unit... I thought I would start fresh this year and stay away from that, but then he went and spent some winnings on some gold teeth... Sorry D-Unit the name is going to stay as long as the teeth do! At any rate, Dana is one of the most talented skaters in the East and on top of that he is a super friendly guy who is a camper fave! Dana rides for Oakley and IFA.
Perri Morgan and Kelly O'Brien
I only put them together becuase they are a team. They are rad skaters, great people, husband and wife and did I mention great people... Seriously folks, you will not find better people on a skateboard or anywhere else for that matter! Kelly makes everything look smooth, he is effortless in his skating he is a skaters skater. Perri is a female rider the rest of the female riders should shoot for. You will never hear her saying it is too hard or giving up on a trick. Perri does not stand out as the girl skater with the boys she just stands out as a good skater. She has the heart of a lion and goes for it at all times! Perri rider for 5Boro and IFA and Kelly rides for IFA.
Chris Trembley
Chris is one of the few in this industry who seem to avoid the spotlight. But when your as good as Chris is, the spotlight follows you! With a check out in Transworld Skateboarding this winter, a bunch of photos in a bunch of mags though out his career Chris is a skater to watch and learn from. He also is full of great stories just ask him... Chris rides for 5Boro, IFA
CHRIS GEORGIA AKA PEACHES
Skate Park Master Crafstman/Ramp Tour Maestro
Jacob "Lil' Precious" Garcia
Lil' Precious is straight outta the hood of Salem, OR. Hard to believe it, but after growing up in such a rad skate mecca like Oregon, it took the blue ramps of WV to teach the little guy how to ride tranny! Precious is a park attending, tight pants wearing, indy band listening, photo taking, all around good guy... Make sure to stop by and say hi to him!
