on the topic of the owens family. we have featured chris owens in the past (brother of gary, legendary hawaii pool pioneer, north shore charger), here is one the best pics to resurface from the vaults: chris at the ORIGINAL DOGBOWL in west l.a. 1977. he was visiting the dt crew that summer and was lucky enough to skate one of the most famous backyard pools in the history books. all those sessions at the pearl city pool, wallows and sunset beach paid off when he got to roll with the dogs that classic summer. stylish backside grinder by one of hawaii's legends.
the family genes live on with chris' son CJ here carving the stairs at the banzai rock skatepark. cj is a good kid with tons of talent in the water and on his 7 ply plank. keep an eye on him to be the next ripper in the line up.
long live the owens clan.
