Natural skateboards ad c 1994 featuring Alphonzo Rawls.  I think the other two guys are Jason Rogers & Danny Mayer but I could be wrong on this. Natural were another  promising company that surfaced in 1994 after H - Street passed away but they did not last too long in the industry.

Royal ad c 1999. I am pretty sure this is the first ad for the trucks I have been riding for over a decade! I went to Supreme one day to get some trucks and somebody there suggested them to me.

The Rick Howard 2

They came out in 1998 and to this day are one of the best all around shoes I have ever skated in. Rick Howards first shoe by DC were amazing but these were just a bit better in my opinion, thats why I had 3 pairs and was very upset when they stopped making them.
