I remember playing the very first THPS on the N64 and was blown away by it, it did make me try skating for a bit but I was never that great. Despite not doing so well and never learning to even kick flip (but I could ollie alright), for a brief time in my life it made me really happy. I read your autobiography and even joined your official fan club and still have the lanyard that got mailed to me hanging on my door. I just want to say thank you for making some solid skating video games.
