#Skateboarding was the beginning of everything. In my new zine #ParadiseLost, interviewees describe how the hardcore #punk scene in Sarasota started with skaters and surfers. Jake Loomis, now a high school teacher and potter, pictured below as a teen, describes how he went from breakdancing to skating and then found punk. Skateboarding #magazines, particularly “Action Now” and “Thrasher” were how many of them learned about punk/hc music. Comment if you can relate! Http://shotgunseamstress.blogspot.com#zines

She's done! Looks way better in print, but I've got the digital flipbook version linked in my blog.
