This is what is all about...
The History (or lack there of) How This All Started and Why
This all started about two years ago when my friend Zack Johnson where sick and tired of playing organized sports like footbal and baseball and basketball and such because first of all there was really not a great bodly harm risk which that a real fun and hard sport should have and second of all all these sports were done so they can be played in front spectators to get attention and the kids played them to be "cool" and to get attention and to get with the cheerleaders. We did not want to live a fake played out life like this that was boring with no exitment.WE found rolling.So Zack picked up a pair of the USD bombs and went to the skate park with me in my wal-mart recreational blades. It was not even two months later when Zack and myself fell in love with rolling and I picked up a pair of the rollerblade swindelers. Zack and I would hit up the park once in a while but mostly skate sreet while meeting other skaters like Drew Chido and Max Fuhrman along the way. Drew started a team called Kryptic but that was shut down becuase of lack of support. This left a florishing aportunity open to Zack and myself to start a new team. We didnt want just any team though. We wanted the best team in the region. What better way to do that than take the two best members out of the three existing skate teams in Erie. This is how we have who we have today. O and guess who is getting all the cheerleaders now and the attention thats right rollers, boarders and bikers. Gettin the chicks is cool but please never place us in a Stadium with our skates in front of people who have no idea what skating is and what it is all about. We want to have fun, not be posers for attention.

What We Are and What Does Oracle Mean
Well we are people who love to skate. There is no better way to say it. Even before we knew about how great the skating scene is we used to just jump little stair gaps like three stairs or so and grind bike racks three inches of the ground. This "hobby" of ours was a great way for us to enjoy are selves and have fun and in less than a year this "hobby" turned into obsession. We saw ourselves slowly starting to skate with more people and better people we met other skaters and never had any idea that there was so many skaters in our city. Before we new it we were doing handrials and just having fun. For the Oracle team skating is just a great way to have fun, relive stress, just chill, and enjoy life the way we want to. We will skate with anyone we dont care if you suck or if you Dustin Latimer or Brian Shima. Its all for the love.
What is Oracle?
Oracle is usally defined as some type of a very wise entity of some sort that knows the future. Now us at the Oracle crew are really not all that smart all the time be we know whats in the future and that is rolling. Rolling is in the future for all of us. It is great from of self expression for us and its fun and it shall exist within our lives till the day that we die.
Peace
