Skateboarding San Francisco: Chico Brenes

Featuring Chico Stix owner Chcio Brenes

Until the 1990s, skateboarding was perceived as a suburban, niche activity in Southern California, surfing on sidewalks. The San Francisco Public Library has drawn together some of the most prominent San Fran skateboarding figure heads to discuss the evolution of skateboarding. 

Listen to Chico Stix's Chico Brenes, give his two cents on skateboarding in San Fran and how as an immigrant the diverse skateboarding community became a integral part of him feeling welcome in America.
