At a 14 stair in Pasadena, Eric Koston attempts a nollie heelflip and Braydon Szafranski attempts a fakie kickflip. The combination of height and length prevails, and the boys come up empty handed. Upon Chad Muska’s request, Reno, the underdog, throws a boneless down the 14 and rides away victoriously. Muska, keeps the street lit and Atiba Jefferson gets the flick.

The following day, at a bus station off the 101 freeway, Chad Muska stakes his claim on a never-touched wall-grind. Chad begins a dance of madness, it takes two to tango. The spot and skater, confidence and creativity, all it takes is ONE. First round knock out, swagger like Mic-Fuckin-Jagger. Against the grain on the 101, a path less traveled. Circa 2006. – Beagle
