Tony Hawk    "we spent some time aboard the flagship of the Skatopia compound, the "Epcot Bean" bowl, which is deeper and more compact than it appears in pictures.....walls seem to attack you at random. We had to leave before I got a chance to get used to the new terrain, so I make no claims as to my prowess in the infamous Skatopia bowl."

Dave Reul    "It'll take more than a black eye to end the dream"........In regards to tbe black eye I sustained in San Diego and the dream of concrete at Skatopia.

Mr Clean    "From the sounds of it though, I could live with a helmet rule because a police issue maglight to the noggin can't feel too good"........., on a possible helmet rule in Louisville after hearing of the cop beatdown of a skateboarder at the Louisville Extreme park, yes, Extreme is correct!

Rob Nelson    "Dirty went to the doctor and they told him he was retarted. There was nothing they could do since it dried up, so he now wears a shin guard"..........on the status of Dirty's gnarly gash

Dirty    "I'm saving my insurance for broken bones because I know it's coming"...........Dirty, opting not to go to get stitches for his gnarly gash he suffered on the Wanchese round bowl coping, he sealed his gash with super glue.  You could see his shin bone.  The pictures exist of this I talk about..

Buddy Carr   "derby week.....jack daniels and topless hillbilly chicks....man i wish i could be there.."  

Rob Dyrdek:  "I love fullpipes"

Jeff Al Green: "I still can't believe I'm here"  was his comment at Louisville when asked his thoughts on the park.  Jeff had gotten 27 out of 35 questions correct on Salba's grueling pipe question contest, then he gets to skate his first fullpipe.

Buddy Carr, talking to the local Louisville newspaper in regards to the park he said it's  "dynamite", "people will come from all over to try it"

Brewce Martin  "I'll sign anything they put in front of me as long as I get to live in Louisville during the summer"

Harold Patrick  "I still don't believe it" he said this after skating for 5 minutes, 30 minutes, 3 days later, I don't think he will ever believe it.

Every body from Louisville asked "how do you like the park", them not realizing that they have probably the best park in the world currently.  Every Skateboarder that was there that's done some traveling had the same glazed look in their eye's the whole time, just utter disbelief and joy.

Dude, I almost broke down and cried myself.  I don't know if it was from the sleep deprivation (all excited about the full pipe and the park), or from the overwhelming site of this park that's 2.5 hours from Dayton where I live.  I think it was a combination of the 2. 

Monk, "it's the best skate park in the world"

Dan Rea, "it's like a really great dream that you wake up sore from"
