Stevie was leaving near me for a while and I saw him skate and he just wasn't up to s'nuff and he'd mention it. He'd spend all day on a Manny kickflip and get annoyed.
He was really nice though. I saw him put up with the MOST annoying kids with smiles. Respect the hell out of them for that. I may have posted this before, but there were these kids who came into his shop and just hung out. The sucked at skating and would constantly say "HEY STEVIE! CHECK THIS OUT" Or "How do I get sponsored" ya know annoying 13 year old shit who aren't really self aware. He'd let them ride with him to the park, and never really call them out. Some one asked him, why he never told those kids to shut up, he said something to effect of. I don't know what those kids will turn out to be, but they'll remember if Stevie Williams was a dick to them.
Good to see that Stevie and Josh are actively at the helm.
