When I'm not skate or snowboarding...
I'm usually down to do whatever comes my way. I work for Doug Kirk Landscape & Nursery on Whidby Island. So when I'm not doing that I skate as much as possible. As far as snowboarding it's a little too early to start thinking about that. Other Interests
Oh, you know, Roller skate, fire juggling and break dancing, ha ha, I enjoy Back packing, fishing, music, and mountain biking. Surfing has always been in the back of my head.

leave by mid September and I'll bethere until early October, I'm sure it will be an exciting experience with all sorts of challenges along the way. Once I'm back in the states its up to Stevens Pass for another winter of being a snow bum.Who are some of your influences ( skate & snow)
I'd have to say in my early days of skating, a lot of my influence came from skating with the older guys around town (MSUI). One particular name comes to mind Orien Yekley. He introduced me to the ollie, and other basics of skateboarding. Since then , skateboarding has been influence in itself. Musical & Movie Favorites

There is no real music classification that I limit myself to. Too many styles and categories to really have one favorite. Honestly, my favorite music is LIVE MUSIC. Favorite movie of all time - FLETCH. Chevy Chase is hilarious!
Who would you like to thank?
I'd like to thank my family, especially my sister Julie, who let me come stay at her house when I was recovering from my broken ankle. Thanks to all my friends for being the original people they are by not selling out to jealousy, hate, greed, or money. LATER
