The best advice I can give is to believe in yourself and to create new challenges no matter how far you get. Even if you think you earned it all or if you're considered the best in the world, keep challenging yourself because you're only as good as your last trick in the public's eye. But only do it because you love it. Don't do it because you think it's your ticket to fame or fortune. If that's the motivation and you reach any of those goals, you're not going to keep that passion.

In ramp skating, theres this guy Alex Perelson whos really coming into his own and doing some amazing new stuff we havent seen before. Just different types of spin.

I won't quit skating until I am physically unable.

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

My definition of success is doing what you love. I feel many people do things because they feel they have to, and are hesitant to risk following their passion.

The irony about selling out is that they only call you a sell-out when your stuff finally sells - I've had products bearing my name since I was 14, but nobody was buying them then.

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.
