The Ego Mob
Photos By Blair Alley.

Ego Mob. What can be said about us that hasn’t already been said? Dirtbags? Street gang? Assholes? Yes, yes, and yes.  A hodge podge mix of ruthless skate rats who will destroy anything in our path. Women, booze, rails, pools, ledges, and lines - Who cares. From oceanside to pb to el cajon, San diego is ours.  Get in where you fit in and the mob fits like a fucking glove.  – Tosh Rice

Anthony Schultz, smith grind
Our most visible member, Anthonyís talent is undeniable. You only need to see him skate once, he doesnít have off days. Heís the good kid with the bright future.

Mikey Prince, backlip fakie.
  Prince is our resident black punker. Heíll drink a bottle of Jack, not sleep, then skate all day. With a high threshold for pain, and that rare mix of style and technical ability, heís a ten on the under-rated-meter.

Lannie Rhoades, knobbed noseslide
OG Lannie is one of the best skaters I knowóand one of the best filmers too. He 5-0íd a seven-stair rail to get on Ego mob in 2000. Now he feebles 16ís for the love of the game.

Danny cher, boneless 180
Danny wanders around singing and dancing in circles while we skate. Then all of a sudden heíll 360 over a rail first try when he gets the urge. Heís one of my favorite pseudo rockstars.

Tron, switch 180
Being raised by a pack of wolves has afforded Tron a maturity you rarely see in 12-year-olds. Heís unfazed by his older brothersí homemade porn and will nonchalantly converse about the numerous older women heís hooking up with. Truly spellbinding.

Jermaine wright, lipslide
Best known for his hand-to-hand combat with cops, security guards, and jocks, Jermaine kept it real in the streets for a bit until he got back on board and got back in the mob. Now heís focused his energy on skating and has one of the illest footy tapes around.
