Stance: Goofy
Best trick: Crail tail or any frontside tail variation,
front tail is a trick I feel like i have more consistent and can take to bigger obstacles.
Fav tricks: Airwalk is a fun one, I also like front tail
revert in transition. Frontside airs can be scary but there’s also nothing like
floating over the board and putting one down
Fav parks: GT bray and Riverwalk
Sponsors: 941skateshop baby
Set up: Been riding a
bigger board for a while now, anything between 8.75 and a 9. Right now I’m
riding a Uma 8.5, but also really partial to Jacuzzi and Antihero decks. I’ve been skating 166 stage four indies with the hard bushings and
risers, 54mm Powell Peralta dragon wheels, and maybe some mini logo bearings?
Also got a very stylish set of zebra print Pig deck rails. Future plans:
Painting has always been my biggest aspiration and guiding force in my life.
The future hopefully looks like moving forward with my work and creating things
that i can be proud of. Skating has been an unlikely outlet for me and i hope i
can continue to progress, not hurt myself gravely and do some gnarly shit.
