Chavez, Bruno Park and Wes Reeves. Skating
with them is so fun, we all help push each
other to get the tricks we want, and we
always help each other stay positive. Other
than that I’ll be at Palomares Skate Park. All
of the locals there are super chill and they
kill it. Shout out to Palo locals!
What do you think are some ups and
downs about skateboarding?
There are definitely a lot more ups than
downs for skateboarding. But, one
downside I think, is that although it has
been shown to be a positive outlet for a lot
of different people, skateboarding is still
frowned upon by a majority of society, and
prohibited at most public place s. That being
said, I think Skateboarding in the Olympics
would be a great way for the rest of the
world to see what Skateboarding is all
about, and how positive it is. I don’t think it
would change anything about skateboarding, other than make it more respectable to
people who don’t understand it yet.
Any last words? (Maybe thank the people/
sponsors who helped you?)

my family and friends for supporting and
believing in me.
