Controlling Motion

“I’ve been skating for over nine years now,” said Daniel Kelmis, a life-long Bellingham local. Kelmis also said that he just recently celebrated his twenty-first birthday. Kelmis enjoys skating every day with his friend David Poletta, age 22, who just recently was permitted to leave Washington after being caught with cocaine and other hard drugs nearly 4 years ago. Kelmis and Poletta will soon part ways when Poletta moves to San Francisco. “I’m ready to go skate San Francisco” Poletta said.
