What got you started?
I was originaly into skatboarding at a early age. I looked up to
Rodney Mullen. I was at the video store one day and saw the moive
rad. I thought maybe there might be some skating in there. The day
that I saw that moive change my life forever. I saw them doing
infinity rolls and front wheel hops and i said to my self I want to
learn how to do that. I bought my first freestylee bike at the age of
19. It was a Mongoose FS1.

What is your worst memory?
I had saw some one go up a ramp and ride down backwards on one wheel. I thought I might be able
to do that since I knew how to do a squeaker. BIG MISTAKE!!!!. I flipped over my handel bars and
did a big face plant. OUCH!!!

My 12 year old son is my biggest insperation to ride again. He
wanted to be in the X games. So I bought a skateboard for him and
my self and I thought him how to ollie. Being out side skateboarding
with him made me want to ride my bike again. I bought a bike for
my 36 birthday and found out that I didn't know how to do any
tricks anymore. I returend the bike and thought I would give it up for
good. My son said to me, Dad if you don't ride now you will be way
to old latter on. Now we go out and he rides his skateboard and I
ride my bike and we have fun together.
