What is the bounty these days on Skateboarder pelts? Is it as high as on coyotes and mimes?
I’m always amazed when major newspapers do stories that glamorize idiots.
Ahm, somebody owns rights to those pools.
Without permission, access and use is not a healthy attitude in any case.
Last skateboarder I met couldn’t put three words into a sentence without saying “man”. Couldn’t hold a job either. Last I heard he went to mommies house out of state, so he can practice more......22 years old and worthless.
Worthless pool scum. These are the leaders of the future Democratic party.
....”On a recent morning, a 27-year-old skateboarder who goes by the name Josh Peacock....”
....27 years old and still a skateboarder....reveling in his ability to trespass on other people’s property....what a jerk...get a job punk.
They identify with them.
It’s better than doing drugs or alcohol. I doubt that you can skateboard effectively while stoned or drunk.
Lets see, the economy has melted down, trillions of foreclosed homes with empty pools, yet children and teenagers are traveling from all over the globe to go to Fresno to skateboard in an empty pools?
LOL!
I doubt that most could earn an honest living doing something legal and respectful while stoned or drunk either.
Professionals? No. The 3 million want to be's? It's a culture, not a sport. Go to your local skateboard park and take a look.
Yeah, but when the economy rebounds and there's a shortage of professional skaters, you won't be laughing then! /s

They’re cleaning pools for free. When they have water in them they are mosquito hatcheries.
This is actually a public service. ;-)
not to mention the skateboards beating the piss out of them
Good point. Every February it rains in California, bringing down lava-like torrents of mud from the previous year's October fires. This time, all those empty pools are going to float like little Noah's Arks.
Verily I say unto thee: gather ye together two lawyers, two gangbangers, two purse dogs, two liberal professors, a pool boy and a Valley girl. Gather ye in a pool forthwith, and await the great rains; then go ye forth in March to repopulate California.
