Dinisor

Dinisor comics are from when I worked for Tracker. Nina who was in charge of sales told me not to correct the misspelling of dinosaur. So I never did. Dinosor is one of the comics I sold Tracker, not this one but a very poorly drawn one. So of course I made it my mission to create them even better every time. On the bottom of the volcano comic is a short comic that has nothing to do with the comic. I did this in other comics. This is part of the underground comic way. Dinosaur’s where a big deal with Tracker then. This one dude who was sponsored by tracker had only dinosaurs on his board that is one of the main reasons I did the Dinosaurs comic. The Volcano scene is about me trying to find sk8 spots in southern cal. The free style contest reference is because Tracker would encourage me to go to these contest they where great the things these dudes could do where amazing to me and inspired me to do many comics on the subject. The reference to Las Vegas was from this dude I met from there who was supposed to get my comic’s published. he would go on and on about how great it was to skate in Las Vegas and this pool. I ended up driving him to the airport in San Diego with my wife and lending him $20.00 of witch he gave me appear of shin guards that I have till this day. The skate park reference was about my wives and Mine’s mini vacations we would spend in Upland California. Also it show the big controversy amongst skaters back then about street skating verses parks. The upland comic was a example of me using a old fashioned ink pen. I did this for several comics I drew. Notice they are skating indoors on the next comic. I used to skate in my apartment. We did not have much furniture, oh to be young. CASL was a contest I attended it was awesome and was the inspiration for the ending on this comic. I would make reference to crime allot because of the crime in southern Cal was kind of a shock to me at times. I own a Kuhara Magician Pro then and was a fan of bikes like that.
