Bolts of Thunder is an underground movement of skaters, posers, and wannabees that have come together to make skate videos, wreak havoc on the man and the war machine, and contribute nothing to the general populous of the world. But we have fun doing it.

The real street league
So I'm the teacher of the skateboarding class at the local rec center. It's the funnest job I could ever have, and I'm way proud of all the kids and how they progressed. So I brought my camera to a couple of the classes and filmed everyone do a couple tricks. As you watch this, keep in mind that most of them had never stepped foot on a skateboard before 5 weeks ago. Nick came to the first session of classes, so he's had a few more weeks experience on a board, and Ramses, 7 years old, came to the last week of the first session, so he's got 6 weeks experience on a board. Jade, the little 6 year old girl, has only been on her board 3 different times and looks like she's been riding for a while. I definitely was not at this level when I had been skating for this long, and some of them are definitely going to be rippers when they're older. So this is the quick video I put together for them, I hope you enjoy it:
