Skateboarding is legendary. The Nebraska DIY skate scene burst on the national stage in September 1983. That year, Fausto Vitello, founder of Thrasher magazine in San Francisco, California, was looking for the country’s best skate ramps in unexpected places. And he heard about a killer ramp in Lincoln, Nebraska, built by teenager Rich Flowerday in his parents’ backyard on suburban Eastridge Drive. So Vitello and a who’s-who of pro-skaters climbed into a van and headed to Lincoln and “The Midwest Melee” was born.

one correction—this describws the era when skateboarding USED TO BE COOL, then it became a huge trendy fad, with 90% posers, and the rest are OG's from the COOL era, along with solid noobs who humbly get it.
