“Hooked on a Free Flight — 13-year-old Lonnie Hiramoto, Runway Skatepark.” Lonny Hiramoto

This is one of those photos that was burned into my mind forever. I can still remember seeing it back in the day and being completely blown away.

I often think about Tim Brauch (RIP), a friend and one of the biggest supporters of Sessions Skateboard Shop back in the day.

I was lucky enough to have Tim work part-time at the shop, and over the years our friendship grew beyond Sessions. Later, Tim, Salma Agah, and I started ESTE together. ESTE Skateboard Apparel

Tim brought so much energy, passion, and heart to everything he did. I feel fortunate to have known him and worked alongside him. Tim is dearly missed.
