You might not make it to the top, but if you are doing what you love, there is much more happiness there than being rich or famous.

Most snarky critics had their minds set before ever seeing/playing the game. I'm proud of what we created; it's innovative, responsive & fun.

I believe that people should take pride in what they do, even if it is scorned or misunderstood by the public at large.

I think that the board is a lot more intuitive than people assume. You get on it and all you have to do is put one foot on the tail and one foot on the nose and rock it up and down and that will get you into the tricks or wheelies or manuals. It's not about the balance so much as it is about the timing.

I consider skateboarding an art form, a lifestyle and a sport. 'Action sport' would be the least offensive categorization.

All I care about is that people remember me as a good skater, as someone who was innovative.

Being different is awesome! All of those who are different are more interesting than those who are clamoring for acceptance because they follow the path.
