Neil Blender "Worm Trainer"


Neil's been a source of stoke for 23 years now. His skating is like his art, completely original. The first time I saw his artwork was in the August 1986 issue of Transworld Skateboarding at age 12 and have been hooked ever since. Neil shut down his site, The Heated Wheel, last year but he still sells his stuff on eBay under the handle leaves63.

All the so-called skater/artists owe a huge debt to Blender. Wasn't he the first pro to do his own graphics? -Blogovan
