"My sponsors through the years have always drowned me in boxes and boxes of free product. I still have a storage shed filled with everything skate related*, so, to reinforce my pay it forward theory, I've always given out free goods in my travels. Something as simple as a few stickers to a young person can be gold to them. I remember all too well collecting skate stickers.
'I remember when you signed a poster for me at the Gravity Games in 2004,' a kid will say to me, or 'You gave my friend and I SoBe hats at the top of the ramp at Ollie's Skate park in Kentucky in 2005' or, 'I still have your poster on my wall from when you were in Cleveland at the Dew Tour in 2007.'" p.36, Looking Glass Self - Hope, Optimism and the Journey Within; Doug Brown
