Alphonzo Rawls has a long-storied legacy in skateboarding that all started with H-Street in the late 80’s, when Mike Ternasky told Tony Mag about this young ripper at Mike McGill’s legendary skatepark in Carlsbad California.
They were both mesmerized by Alf's style and totally unique approach to skateboarding, which is still glaringly obvious to anyone today. As if having H-Street level talents for riding a skateboard wasn’t enough, Alf turned out to be an amazing artist, who did many of H-Street graphics, including his own. Alf’s design prowess is also very much a factor that shapes skateboarding to this day.
