been skating?
About seven years.
Where are you from?
Plymouth, Michigan.
Do you like living in SF?
Yeah, you can cruise
the hills if you want and
it's still fun.

you like to skate?
I try to skate every-
thing, but I haven't skat-
ed vert in a long time.

Brian Young, the twins,
and just whoever's
around.

bit, but usually I just go
skateboarding as much
as possible.
Do you have any spon-
sors at this time?
No, I don't.
What are your plans?
Just to keep skate-

across the country and
skateboard wherever I
can because I think that's
fun, just go skate all the
different spots.

I'm nineteen years old.
Anything else?
Just hello to every-

We skate on the

lines and smooth
banked bricks.
Why do you skate?
I don't know, I guess
I'm just addicted to it.
Skateboarding is
