He's alive and well and living in Rome with his girlfriend Susan, working as a TV and film editor. I had lunch with him there last November. A real class act, and a true friend.

Thanks Richy and Maria for a great day! Thanks for the food and drinks you brought. I don't know how you do so many 360's I got dizzy watching. The DVD(Off the Rails TV) is great Maria, I watched it twice today. Thanks and I hope you have another Jam soon.

Freestyle & Thrasher
On 6/23/2005 yoyo schulz wrote in from Germany  (84.178.nnn.nnn)

Thrasher used to know what Freestyle is / was. They had Rodney and Per on the covers; Rodney had a trick tips section.
Probably the 'old' staff is no longer around and Street sells better.
BUT: We are here to stay. There is more to skateboarding than Street. You are aware of it, that's why you are here on ncdsa.
Check out this link, issue#4 of Bail Mag had a write up on MY trick.

FREESTYLE!
On 6/18/2005 ED NADALINS IN ITALY I THINK? wrote in from United States  (207.200.nnn.nnn)

I wasnt putting down the Ollie lovin kid. I see it did look that way in print...

Putting into words the Freestyle of the 70s, is like trying to describe red to a blind man.
I think you'll have to look into getting videotape of Ed Nadalin & Russ Howell to "SEE".
Its been 30 Years & I still havent seen anyone, of that caliber, Freestylin. I know the pros of today are great riders. But I am still Looking forward to the day when FREESTYLE IS BACK, & The Equivalent of Russ Howell & Ed Nadalin Ride again. "Hey kid I know your out there" Get inspired! Find some footage of
Ed & Russ, & Then I think you"ll see Red.

freestyle purity
On 6/15/2005 daniel trujillo wrote in from United States  (68.104.nnn.nnn)

this is in response to "ed nadalins in italy, i think" i turned 18 about 6 months ago, i used to street skate, and i love freestyle, it is basically my life. i skate everyday, and now that it is summer i will do it almost all day everyday. as of right now i am 1 of 2 freestylers in my state (the other is witter cheng who lives about 9 hours away) im not sure if i caught the whole jist of the post, but if i took it wrong tell me. i am an "ollie loving" kid, i do a lot of ollie based tricks, but i love the non-ollie tricks (coco-wheelies, nohand 50-50's, handstand variations) much much more. although i would like to, i know i will never come close to russ howells record. i can say i understand freestyle, but im 1 out of 2 million in las vegas that i know of. so although there might be very few, i wouldnt say there are none.

FREESTYLE?
On 6/13/2005 Ed Nadalins in Italy I think? wrote in from United States  (207.200.nnn.nnn)

Apparently They have little clue of the skill involved in this sport. And no doubt they never did & probably NEVER will, see Ed Nadalin or Russ howell skate FREESTYLE. Hmmmm boys when was the last time you did "1" 360. Russ howell,one hundred sixty plus,& 2 board tricks you still cant do & wont see, because you dont want your "BUDDY" to see you do FREESTYLE,so youll never learn. Or Ed Nadalin cruisin under Huntington pier grippin the board pure, & flying by you chest high, only to land & doso many different things with the board he was done & doin more while you were still in awe of his 1st flow.Yeah Boys I was good,& these Guys were GREAT! Forever leaving their mark on the sport. For anyone to put down this sport in any way, never had the true pure feeling of flowing through, what others called "tricks".These were expressions of something we loved to do. It was a pure time. Its been about 30 years for me, And "not one" ollie lovin kid has even come close to the kind, of pure fluidity of the FREESTYLE i know is possible. Hey kid I know your out there, Let the FREESTLYE flow, and "maybe" one day youll top Russ howells Record. But even if you dont,Maybe youll understand the pure fluid flow, of FREESTYLE.

a nobody skateboarder
On 6/3/2005 grilla gripper wrote in from United States  (71.107.nnn.nnn)

I remember at 15-16ish in 1975-76ish
Concrete Wave Anahiem, Ca. I used to always wear a yellow Infinity (did I spell that right?)t-shirt, grilla gripping over skateboards in the parking lot and writers and camera crew coming up to me saying "what's your name Ed Nad" and I would say no I'm not Ed Nadalin and they would walk away I was clearing 3-4' high. my brother Karl my half hawaiian bro. used to party big time with Ed Nadalin. Karl Use to work at the Power Paw Speed Spring Fact. back in the day smoking the mary-jane, the funny thing is that I came with Ed Nadalin and Russ Howell. the other time was in Huntington Beach Fred Flavell, Russ Howell, Ed Nadalin, Dale Smith, I remember some of the Zepher boys were there and came with Russ Howell and Ed Nadalin, anyhow I was riding up the bank under the pier grilla gripping 180s, 360s and on top of the HB pier grilla gripping over the chains writers and camera crews came again "what's your name Skitch" and the same thing would happened and told them I wasn't that person, they would walk away. I guess I was a nobody!
