Sick, thanks for this.

Interesting that he says if he could do it over he would have never retired and moved to Chicago.

He's my hero, but that's nothing special.  Matt Hensley is everyone's hero.

He certainly should be.  Classy human being right there. 

Please post up part 2 when it surfaces.

Hensley will always be at the top of my list.  i was in that exact time slot when i was young and in my skate prime..  probably watched Shackle Me Not a thousand times

as others have said he seems like such a cool dude.  totally humble, honest, and doesn't put on bullshit airs.  legend in every way

One of my first fan out moments was when I saw Matt Hensley after the NSA Pro Street Contest in 1988 at the Neil Blaisdell Center in Honolulu, Hawaii.  He won the high ollie contest and I was stoked I got to shake his hand.  Legendary dude.  This was rad.
