I have skated with many people over the years who have
influenced me profoundly. I have also skated with younger
guys who during the last 10-12 years pushed the boundaries
of what was thought to be impossible 25 years ago. Since
I have been around longer than most, this is a list
of people who in my mind have made a difference in my
