THE FOUNDATION

This article would not have been possible without the help of all the supportive people in the truly dirty South (Richmond really isn’t that dirty, it just smells like armpits.)

First up is Thomas Taylor at Stratosphere Skateboards. This guy has been instrumental in the Atlanta skate scene for a long time and has been a driving force behind getting the Foundation to the point that it’s at today.

Next is Ryan Flynn. An incredible photographer who has helped document the history of the Foundation, Ryan provided all the construction photos for the article. Check out his portfolio site. For more videos and photos from the Foundation’s past, also check out atlantahatesus.com , which Flynn helps run.

And letter-slaying spiderman, Hense of the illustrious graf crew MSK/Seventh Letter Crew. Hense has been crushing Atlanta for years now and really rounded out the spotlight with the kind of clean, bold lettering he uses to beautify the the decaying waste of the city on a regular basis. See more of Hesne’s work at knowngallery.com.

BREW REVIEWER

This jerk had the nerve to complain about 6 free beers just because the five Born Ugly provided were warm and heavy. At least he didn’t get broke… One of these days someone will fuck themselves up doing the Brew Review and that will make it all worthwhile.
