I don't have a question at the moment, but a cool story bro?

The first time I saw Karl in a video it was a 411, chaos section I think. My friend's TV was messed up like what happens if you put a magnet by the screen, around where the names of the skaters were on the screen. It looked like "Karl Watoon" and I said the name and got laughed at by my friends who already knew what it really was but ever since then we always called him Karl Watoon

Well, they approached Quim first but he wasn't into what they were offering him. He was pretty smart and didn't rush into things like I did.

Enough about praxis, whats the deal with organika? You guys doing a full video or anything? Seems like the company receded into a cocoon or something. What gives?

Good question.  All I can say is keep your eyes open. Some nice stuff in the works

Hi Karl

I have three (could count as four :P) questions for you  :)

1. You did mention a bit about Organikas start etc...but my question to you is, what was your vision for the company when you started out? And are you happy with how it has turned out ten years later (or is that eleven?)

2. Walker Ryan mentioned an Apparel push in his TWS Interview by Organika, when will we be able too see some new stuff from that?

3. I'm thinking of buying yours or Quims pro model deck...which should I pick?  ;D



Keep ripping  :)

Karl.............good move with the Josh Anderson exposure, he rips so hard and no one seems to know who he is. I have one complaint though, I hope you are gonna put out more 7.9 decks. Also when is the clothing line gonna drop?  started seeing Walker rocking that hooded Henley in photos and it makes my wallet hurt.

Here ya go buddy.

1. My vision of Organika has changed over the years and now we are entering a new faze which you will see unfold within the next couple of years.

2.Yes, we're making clothing now. Pretty stoked on the possibilities. We're keeping it pretty modest in the beginning so certain items will be dropping periodically throughout this year. But 2014 will be a big year for us.

3. Quims for sure! : )

Thanks for your interest in Organika and the questions  ;D

Peace

Haha! Hell yeah man. I'll let them know that we still have some folks who ride under 8 decks. And most of the gear will be shipping soon.

Thanks man

Zach quit because he felt disrespected when we were talking about turning Walker pro before him. Zach is the man! I wish he would have stuck around. I love the dude : )

Ten years ago I saw you in an Ethiopian restaurant in SF, weird I would remember that, right?  Anyway; no one ever backs me on this, but how good is Ethiopian food?!  It's the secret to your skate style isn't it?
