Skater: Steve Alba Location: Upland Skatepark Upland, California Year: 1980 Issue: Skateboarder Magazine Santa Cruz Ad June 1980 Photo: Ted Terrebonne Steve Alba was the master at Upland Skatepark. Of course he lived about a mile from the place. I really enjoyed staying at Steve's parent house when I was in town covering the area. His parents where the best skater's parent back then. They totally supported their sons skateboarding careers.
