Asked Cody McEntire where the beer tent was at a contest in Vancouver, I had no idea who he was at the time.

Skated at Plaza with Spencer Hamilton a bunch and even got a clip in one of his Instagram videos.

Met Lance Mountain at a Flip demo. Super nice dude.

Skated Leeside tunnel with Eman, Josh Borden, Willis Kimbel, Rhino, Taylor Bingaman and Kevin Kowalski. Borden did a massive Back Disaster on the old wall and my buddy sold Willis some weed.

Smoked a joint with Tommy Sandoval after the Cold War premiere in Van.

One of the people you just mentioned, messaged me asking if I could help him get weed randomly when he was close to my city. I live like an hour from where he was tho so I wasn’t much help.
I tried to invite him to our local Go Skate Day event (which was that day) and said I’d bring weed to that, but I think he wanted to keep low key and was injured at the time so he didn’t show.

One time I commented on one of Ted Schmitz Instagram posts and he commented back and said something bout watching one of my skate parts and he thought it was cool.
I have had a huge man crush on him ever since.
This was a couple years ago and I was totally unaware that he had seen one of my videos.

There was an Osiris demo by my house during the whole "The Storm" video premiere tour. I had a poster with the whole team at the signing. remember the one where they were all standing in the middle of the street...? I didnt let anyone sign my poster except Jerry Hsu and just left right after. Havent seen him since.

Did i win?!

I saw Carlos Ribiero drink a can of Fanta at Macba. /Thread

[switchnolliecuffedjeans]

I used to skate with dan corrigan

Yo me too in PA really nice dude

[L33Tg33k]

A few people from my neighborhood that I skate with have somewhat made it into the industry. Aldrin "Ollie Champ" Garcia and Mark "Marky Numbers" McCoy (kind of) were am. Erick Winkowski is the only guy that went all the way though. This is the latest video they all got clips in. Aldrin has a full part that is pretty damn good. First part.


Tommy Sandoval has given me boards on three separate occasions and didn't remember me in any of those encounters.

Shuriken Shannon always hides when other skateboarders show up at spots. I've seen him do it like 10+ times. I always thought that was funny.

Lenny Rivas shows up at the neighborhood prefab skatepark with his son sometimes. Never skates.

I've delivered mail to Wes Kremer, Darren Naverette, and Chris Troy.

I've had breakfast with Auby Taylor. He told me how hyped he was on kratom and I rode with him in his Prius around Ocean Beach looking for some.

I bitched out on jumping down stairs in front of Rhino.

Nick Tucker offered me half of his super burrito.

I've had short conversations with Alexis Ramirez. He said "please" and "thank you" multiple times in every one of them.

Chris Dobstaff complimented me on a trick and then told me about how much he loves skateboarding.

Willy Santos told me about how important Filipino pride is to him.

Steve Borra invited me and the whole crew to the first or second Battle of the Berrics championship after everyone relentlessly made fun of him outside of a restaurant.

It's endless being in San Diego, but here's my favorite. I saw the guy that plays Kevin Malone in The Office walking the streets of downtown with two hot girls on either arm and another girl following behind them. Some real unexpected baller type shit. It wasn't like it was Comic-Con or some shit. It was like a random Wednesday night.

It's called "5 Questions for 5" so basically I ask 5 skateboarders the same 5 questions. Currently there's only 1 issue as I have a few other zines on the go but I'm hopefully working on another.

DM me your address and I'll send you a copy if you want.

Met the zero team in 2003. My mom and I talked to Chris Cole after the demo. Dying to Live Tour Framingham MA.
