Asthmatic Kitty is proud to announce our first venture into the realm of skateboarding. We are officially sponsoring rural skateboarding phenom, Austin Aalsma of Waupun, Wisconsin. Austin has been developing his skills in the rural outreaches of Wisconsin for a full third of his life. You would think that being born and raised in farmland Wisconsin would not foster a skate punk’s life. You’d be wrong. Austin recently built a half-pipe with his father and was involved in applying for a grant to build a skate park in his local town. He and his fellow applicants recently found out they received the grant. Perhaps Waupun will be the next San Jose? You really gleamed the cube on that one Austin! Given his efforts and skills, we at Asthmatic Kitty want to support Austin’s efforts with this sponsorship and wish him all the best in his career.
