He was likely to be permanent affected by the injuries he sustained, Judge Pullen said. There was a question mark over whether he would ever be able to get on a skateboard again, she said.

Judge Pullen said Boulala had a reduced range of movement, strength and co-ordination and suffered spasticity in his lower right leg. He still has trouble putting on his shoes and getting out of the shower.


And the Judge said this about Ali, which I'm not sure is exactly accurate.: "Prior to this offence you were a person of good character. You were also a role model, as was Shane Cross." "

yea....i don't feel all that sorry for the dude. he made that decision. lots of people lives were screwed up, not just his and shane's. he wasn't that much of a role model for the skate industry, in my opinion. he was just another dude getting super fucked up all the time, wishing he was johnny rotten or some shit. i just never identified with that whole "piss drunks" scene, seems like a poor example to set.

I agree. That whole group of guys are kind of lame. Good skaters and all but still. I think Andrew Reynolds has escaped that mess now.

I used to skate with some of those 151 guys a lot. They weren't such a great story either. especially Chris Swanson. That dude was a menace when he was drinking. Cool guy when he wasn't.

The skate industry needs more Mike Vallelys and Bob Burnquists.
