Jonathan Mehring Interview
« on: May 10, 2016, 05:34:12 AM »
****SHAMELESS SELF PROMOTION ALERT****

So, I got the chance to interview Jon Mehring the other week.

We shot the shit for about an hour. Super nice dude with, unsurprisingly, a bunch of great stories to tell.

Here's the finished piece, just went online today. Maybe some of you folks might enjoy it...

Noticed several typos, but overall great work man!

Mehring seems like an awesome dude.

I enjoyed this line:  "with notorious skateboarding curmudgeon, Bobby Puleo, in a starring role."

Great description, haha.
Going into to business with Vallely is the skateboarding equivalent of starting a land war in Asia, just don't.

Thanks for the feedback.

I didn't actually post the finished product so a few things slipped through the cracks. I've had a look over it now and tidied things up a bit.

Cheers for the heads up.

Seemed more like an essay than an interview
