Avenue & Limits
The poster's comments on the videos:
"Avenue was going to be a skateboard company under Tantrum Distribution but Tantrum went under before this video could see the light of day. Avenue Skateboards was Sean Mitchell, Joe Valdez, Tommy Borunda, and Ray Chavez."
"produced this video with Trevor Prescott (RIP) and Theo Hand. After Tantrum Dist. went under, I took matters into my own hands by starting Causin' Frustration skateboards. This video was packaged with the boards. We ended up pretty much skating all the boards. I pretty much had a falling out with the entire industry, including Joe and Trevor, so needless to say, the company didn't get very far. But we had fun while it lasted, and called the shots as we saw fit. CF forever son! Better watch for the comeback. The legend lives on..."
