What is the bounty these days on Skateboarder pelts? Is it as high as on coyotes and mimes?

I’m always amazed when major newspapers do stories that glamorize idiots.

risking trespassing charges in the pursuit of emptying forlorn pools and turning them into de facto skate parks. Ahm, somebody owns rights to those pools.
Without permission, access and use is not a healthy attitude in any case.

Last skateboarder I met couldn’t put three words into a sentence without saying “man”. Couldn’t hold a job either. Last I heard he went to mommies house out of state, so he can practice more......22 years old and worthless.

Lets see, the economy has melted down, trillions of foreclosed homes with empty pools, yet children and teenagers are traveling from all over the globe to go to Fresno to skateboard in an empty pools?
LOL!

Those pools won't last long without water weight in them.

The mosquito abatement teams must love these guys. Saves them the trouble of draining pools in foreclosed housing.
Mr. Peacock, who preferred to give his skateboarding name because of the illegality of his activities. So the NYT knows who is committing crimes but withholds the criminal's name. No surprise there. At least it isn't likely to result in the death of Americans. That is a definite improvement over their usual behavior.

I am surprised at the vitriol and misinformation on this thread. I myself grew up pirating pools when possible, and building magnificent wooden halfpipes when necessary. Yes, I was a skater, and I turned out to be a fine conservative citizen of FR.
I still have a longboard, a Rayne Heartless with ABEC-11 Flywheels. And if you flame me, I'll borrow my son's pool board, come and drain your pool and thrash it.
God bless smooth, gunite-coated America.
