Do you feel skateboarding has changed your life? How?

The pros that inspire me today are Jamie Foy and Zion wright  they just take skating to another level which Is the level and skill set that I try to be on

 

 

Do you prefer watching skate videos on social media or buying them? Why?

What is the gnarliest trick you have ever done? How did you feel when you landed it?

 

The hardest trick that I did was the crooked grind down the double kink in my brute part. The feeling I had when I rolled away from that was like  overwhelming joy and denial, I could not believe that I rolled away, one of the best feelings ever

This is what I do, I get up take a cold shower then a hot bath then rubs my body with my CBD oils  brush the teeth, then I smoke a bowl or a joint then play some skater xl until I figure out where the homies are and where they are skating then I eat food then head out

 

 

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

 

All I have to skate is keep pushing yourself and never give up on your dreams because dreams really do come true u just got to keep a positive mindset and do not let anybody get in your way of that
