Kevin Harris is TS's favourite Canuck (alongside Neil Young), hailing from Vancouver he specialises in freestyle skating and is known for his fluid style incorporating complex manual variations with exceptional footwork. Stacy Peralta called him "the most natural skater I knew." In 1982 Harris competed in the freestyle competition in Del Mar, California as a sponsored amateur. There weren't enough amateur contestants so he skated against the pros and finished in third place. Stacy Peralta, Harris' idol stopped him in the parking lot and asked him to ride for the Bones Brigade, Powell Peralta's skate team. The Brigade quickly became the most dominant team in skateboarding and Harris found himself teammates with Tony Hawk, Lance Mountain, and Rodney Mullen among others.
