I played team sports, but I never felt like I fitted in that well, so this allowed me to be part of a community but to do it in my own way.

I love snowboarding, but I would never want to do it competitively or at a professional level. Snowboarding is a spawn of skating, and skating is my passion.

The biggest lesson I learned from my dad is to support children even if they're doing something that is unorthodox.

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.

I wanted to promote skateboarding as much as possible through different media.

Big decisions in my life have always come easy and are made without hesitation. It is easier for me to make a life-changing decision than to decide what to get for dessert.

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.
