Not
much to see on this website but an old kook on his skateboard.
Still skating & surfing at 50. I can't get enough.
I also have an ebay business that I run when I'm not skating.

My name is Kevin Kritz. I'm a skateboarder from the Pt Loma/Ocean
Beach area of San Diego. I was a competitor at the Del Mar Nationals
in 1975. The Del Mar Nationals Skateboard Contest was sponsored by
Bahne and Cadillac Wheels. I skated in both the freestyle and slalom
events against Tony Alva, Jay Adams, Stacy Peralta, Bruce Logan, and
all the other legendary old-school skaters of the era. If you see
either "Dogtown and the Z Boys" or"The Lords of Dogtown",
check the numbers worn by the contestants in the Del Mar contest.
Below is the bib number that I wore... the original item. Do you have
any pictures or video of the contest? If you do, I would really like
to see what you have. Later in my early skateboarding career I worked
at Del Mar Skateboard Ranch with Grant Brittain, a guy who has gone
on to become one of the greatest skate photographers. Back in the
day I rode in some of the ASPO (Association of Skate Park Owners)
contests. I snagged a 2nd place ribbon in the Del Mar Skateboard Ranch
ASPO contest in 1979. Nowadays, I just skate and have fun, do some
frontside grinds, high speed carves, one wheelers, etc... and of course
my favorite move of em all, the tail tap.
