I’m sorry if you envy my sponsored friends and I for our lifestyle in Southern California: perfect weather, fast mountain runs, fresh gear, waves every day, and heaps of skate events. We have it made, right? Well, the above only paints a partial picture of the actual reality. It may seem like we’re spoiled rotten, but […]
I haven’t had a television in my apartment for a couple of years now, I brush up on current events on reliable internet sources here and there instead. When I was in Israel, my family and many of my friends reached out to me asking if I was safe, if I was paying attention to […]
I honestly don’t exactly know where it came from. Anyone who knows me would tell you that I am one of the most mellow humans on spaceship earth. It may have been my teenage years as a horseback rider—growing up, I cared for and rode a retired thoroughbred race horse. He loved going fast, I […]
Summer is here and travel season is kicking into full gear. I just returned from Maui, and I’m about to jump in the van for Wheelbase’s “Keep On Tuckin’” tour! I’ll definitely be hitting the Maryhill “She-Ride” as well—and I’m still figuring out the details— but I’m headed to the Middle East and Europe for […]
California has been calling my name since I was a youngster. I heard the call right around age ten when I picked up skateboarding, snowboarding, and surfing.

Many of us skateboarders are nomads. We love to travel to new places, shred new terrain, and with a fresh cast of rad skaters. Plenty of us in the community dare to follow our skateboards wherever they may roll, and in many cases this passion to hit the road rolling takes us around the world. […]
My good pal and fellow Paris Truck Co rider, Matt K, asked me a couple of months ago if I wanted to join him on his eighth or tenth skate mission to Hawaii—I guess he lost count at some point? As you can imagine I agreed to tag along without hesitation, wondering what it was […]
Los Angeles is a sprawling 502.7 square miles and the skate community is spread out into every corner of the county. The Gel Lab Shred Sessions have given many of us here in LA’s somewhat splintered community an outlet to gather together and Get Rad. I’ve watched these sessions blossom into a popular, nocturnal, and weekly […]
Skateboarding moves me. It takes me from point A to point B every day. It’s moved my residency from one coast of the United States of America to the other. It’s lead me out of the country, to Spain and the Dominican Republic. Those are just a couple of my personal instances, I have friends […]
