When did skateboarding change your life?

skateboarding changed my life the first time I went to the skatepark. I just loved the vibes and how you can put your emotions into it.

 

What is your favorite trick and why?

my favorite trick now would have to be frontside crail-slides. I just love the way they look and feel. I try and do at least one at every new park I go to.

 

With skateboarding in the Olympics, do you think skateboarding can prostitute itself or to lose the true essence?

with skateboarding in the Olympics, I feel that more people are going to start accepting it but it’s still not wrong and disliked by a lot of people, but I feel that’s right its part of the culture.

 

When was the first time you won a skateboard contest & how did you feel?

the first contest I ever won was probably about 6 months into skating and it was a thrill knowing I got there myself. considering it was a gnarly bowl too if you guys know the terror dome then yeah.

 

Skateboarding and music are very connected to each other, what do you like to listen to while skateboarding?

I prefer skateparks over the street because it just makes me feel so much more at home considering I grew up surfing. I just love the way you can flow and make your own lines

 

 

Do you prefer to shred in the streets or in skateparks? Why?

I prefer skateparks over the street because it just makes me feel so much more at home considering I grew up surfing. I just love the way you can flow and make your own lines.

 

Have you ever thought about giving up skateboarding? Why?

since I started skating, I haven’t thought about giving it up. it helped me through tough times and it just feels so right I don’t think I’ll ever give it up

 

What inspires you to shred and evolve every day? fame or just fun?

what inspires me is watching all my friends grow and progress it makes me skate harder. also watching all these up and coming groms doing the tricks they are, makes me wish I had started a lot earlier.

 

What is your daily routine before you go shred?

my daily routine is to wake up watching a skate video maybe a couple of other YouTube videos and or surf then I’m ready to go.

 

Any inspiring words you want to tell the next generation of skaters?

all I have to say no matter what you are trying to do in skateboarding whether it be just for fun or you’re trying to make it you just got to have fun you need to enjoy and don’t let anything or anyone ruin it for you.
