RIP IN PEACE: Josh Marlowe
Skateboarding lost a legend with the passing of Josh "The Bomb King" Marlowe, one of the most powerful skaters to come out of Ocean City, MD and the East Coast vertical scene of the 1980s. His grinds were long, his airs soaring and his handplants tweaked as all hell. Josh Marlowe paved the way. Race City Jam Event:
