wally today, the ips lives.the rhps always dug the stylish and fluid skater - tom "wally" inouye. wally was a legendary pro skater from the san diego area in the late 70's. his approach to skating looked as though he was surfing & slicing a perfect wave. he created a faux pool cleaning co. called: inouye pool service(IPS), he would show up and say "pool guy" to gain access to backyards. so naturally when we started our deal in the 80's, we followed wally's lead, show up with a smile and pumps. our original name was "g&g" pool service which later evolved into the rhps.
today wally lives in the northwest with his family and runs a skate/snowboard camp AND still rips!
respects to wally and the IPS.
