Q: What skater has most influenced you and your style?

A: I would have to say a mix of Lance Mountain and Liam Morgan.. maybe

Q: Your Favorite skate flick?

A: Street flick would have to be “Chomp On This”. Just because Eric Koston early grabs a double set. I still own it on VHS.

Q: What was the most fun you had skating?

A: Most fun was the first time I learned how to slide. Better than sex!

Q: Care to share your favorite spot?

A: If I told you I would have to kill you.

Q: We’ve all had gnarly wipe outs, what was yours?

A: This by far is the worst one. It was my first summer of longboarding, I was riding a 40 some odd inch Never Summer pintail with shoes, tee- shirt, short’s , no helmet at about 12:30 midnight bombing some random hill in the boonies with my brother JohnAlex and our friend David. We all started going David in front John then I. We got going pretty quick started carving right when I went over the yellow lines I felt some super rough pavement so I tucked it to catch up as I was yelling “don’t carve over the top!” John carves over the top hitting a pot hole slamming him into the ground, me colliding into him smacking my head on the pavement seeing yellow until I ended up in a ditch screaming “SHIITTTT!” . Then having to walk 3 miles back to the car all bloody and what not. Yeah worst bail.

Q: Everyone wants to progress and do new things, to push the envelope. What is your next step, the thing you Jones’s to do?

A: Again if I told you I would have to kill you. Lets just say I have been studying Mike Mcgill for quite some time.
