Kalis was usually really cool when he lived in Dallas but did act like a dick sometimes mainly due to the influence of some of the guys he hung out with. This was right before and a bit after he turned pro.
Later on we got the feeling he was bummed on his crew because he would give them boards or send them boxes and they would just sell the stuff. Basically the guys he skated with stopped skating and sold the product he was giving them thinking they were skating it.
All that aside there's plenty of stories of him like The Gipper stated.
One time I showed up at Jeff Phillips Skatepark and he was in the parking lot asking anyone for Thunders since he was headed to Houston and his package didn't arrive in time. He comes up and asks me if I have any, which I just happened to buy a new pair of that day, so he then says he'll trade me. He went out of his way and gives me a brand new pair of eS Accels, spitfire wheels, spitfire shirt, tons of stickers, bearings, and says he'll give me another set of wheels next time. I of course traded him but didn't plan on or worry about getting any wheels since he already gave me a shitload of stuff.
About a 2 weeks later I see him and he comes up and says thanks for the trucks but they didn't work out cuz they were 147 Hi and he skates the 145 Lo. However, he said he remembers saying he'd give me another set of wheels which he gives me right there. Pretty cool since around that time he was known to be hit and miss on whether he'd be cool or a dick to people.
He was 19 or 20 at the time so I just chalk it up to being young and having some thuggish friends.
He's in my top 5 of street skaters. Totally raw and one of the few who can wear sweatpants and bulky shoes and still make it look good.
