"LAUNIE PORTEOUS IS MY BROTHER. HE HAS ALWAYS HAD A LOVE FOR THE SKATEBOARD SCENE FROM A VERY YOUNG AGE AND HAS ONLY MASTERED THE STYLES TO WHERE HE IS NOW AN INFLUENCIAL BODY IN THE CULTURE OF SKIMBOARDING AND SKATE. BEING THE AMBITIOUS AND ENERGETIC PERSON HE IS, HIS IMMEDIATE ATTRACTION TO SUCH A SPORT HAS ALWAYS BEEN A BLAST TO WATCH AS IT HAS BROUGHT OUT THE BEST IN HIS SKILLS AND IN A QUIRKY WAY, MADE HIM AN ICON IN HIS OWN RIGHT. THERE WILL NEVER BE A SKIMMER AS GREAT AS ""LON PORTEOUS"" AS HE HAS BEEN AT THIS SINCE FOR 20 PLUS YEARS.
