Kissing the concrete and nternet trolls

WORST HABIT:
Waking up every morning to go to work

Life stress

WORST ACCIDENT:
Thank god no serious accidents so far. I guess starting skating at the age of 25 keeps you away from the worst accidents. Less recklessness maybe.

BEST EVENT:
LA GROSSE RANDO, (the french board meeting). Shredding the streets of Paris surrounded by a thousand other skaters gives you chills!

ONE THING EVERY SKATER SHOULD KNOW:
Skating is for FUN! So don’t take yourself too seriously

DREAM SKATE DESTINATION:
An infinite hill surrounded by green pastures, 5% grade, just enough to cross step and carve without any foot stopping.

Rodney Mullen, my buddy Adam Colton and my mom. She’s not a skater, she’s my favorite person on earth though.

Hand tricks are the future!

FAVORITE BAND:
Metallica

BEST CONCERT YOU HAVE ATTENDED:
Jack Johnson in Paris, France

The Gladiator

FAVORITE SKATE VIDEO:
Altered route (Brett novak + Kilian Martin). There is no excess fat on this video. Skating, filming, editing, music, everything’s perfect, nothing to add nothing to remove.

SUSHI and California Maki!

Playing music, guitar mainly
