Karl, what is Kenny Reed like? What happened between you and I-Path, and how come your last pro shoe was so expensive?

Kenny Reed is a rad dude indeed. He's a pretty quiet guy who keeps to himself but if you approach him he'll be super cool.
I-Path was an awesome thing in the beginning; with me, Mike Daher and the 3 Matts. But everything changes.  After they were sold to Timberland a couple people were hired who had a different vision for the brand. They have some rad dudes on the team for sure but without Matt Field, I-Path can suck it.
Also, im not to sure as to why my last pro shoe was too expensive but I would love to release a super cheap shoe for the market.

Best place to travel??

New Zealand!!! Went there on an LRG trip in 09 and loved it. Dave Chami took us to a Hot Spring waterfall... I'll never forget it.

karl your the fuckin man!

How do you feel about the intervention of Nike in skateboarding?

Im pretty much indifferent about it... They do sponsor BA and Plunkett so they get props for that but them suing Nugget is just insane.

Have you ever smoked hubba at hubba?

LMAO!!! Nah, I never touched the hubbas. Are you from EMB? A lot of folks don't know about that.

I don't know. I just rewatched his 7 year glitch part, and there are a couple tricks he lands and pretty much stops he's going so slow.

What's one basic trick you've never felt comfortable with?

[grimcity]

Have you changed your position on Max Greene? I mean, the fella's doing TRIPLE GRINDS!

TRIPLE!

[ORGANIKARL]

What's one basic trick you've never felt comfortable with?

Regular frontside flips. I can do them switch but suck at them regs.
Karma taught me how to do them a few years back at the flat ground spot on 6 and Fulton in SF, but after that day they just slipped away.

Max Greene is my dawg. Those obstacles he makes are pretty sick too.

Bones bushings all day. They just feel the best. Venture should do an everlasting colabo with Bones bushings...That would be rad.

I think he's an amazing skater.
I met Danny and Ryan Nix when they came to LA in 04. They were little rippers who liked to have a lot of fun.

[ORGANIKARL]

yo karl...what went down with that crazy bitch?

I wouldn't call her crazy but we all know when a women is unhappy or mad, shit can hit the fan and they will do things that don't make since. Life is a constant learning experience and during that chapter of my life I learned a lot about how one persons decisions can affect another.

Thanks j....soy

I've never been to Peru but I've always wanted to go. I looked into an Organika tour before but the timing wasn't right. Maybe in 2012 Organika will visit your beautiful country.
Thanks Adrian.
