When you landed your ender in Five Flavours (switch bs 5-0 front shove out) you seemed very relieved. How long did it take you? Love from The Molusk.

So funny because "The Molusk" was the name of the song I skated to in that part! Ween is the sickest!!!
I tried filming that trick for like two months. I was sooo relived indeed  :o

Yeah, I got my alias from that song/part. I'm not too familiar with Ween, but that song rips. Damn, two months? Must have been frustrating as fuck! While I'm here, i may a well ask, who had your favourite part in that video? I liked yours, Welsh's, and SJ's. Actually Pontus killed it too. What a sick video.

Speaking of Mad Circle, did you keep an extra board of any of your pro models from that time? Specifically "Dreads"?

Always dug that company and that board. I hope an unused one still exists somehwere.

Thanks

My worst injury was a torn PCL and meniscus in my right knee. Kept me off my beloved board for a  whole year...
Are you injured at the moment?

Hey Karl, how are you ankles at your age? 

The older guys at local park tell me theirs are all messed up and I feel like even at the age of 20 (not that old), I feel like mine are just starting to give out more often.  Do mid / hi tops help at all with this?  I love classic vans but I don't think i can do it anymore haha

Luckily my ankles are still intact and feeling good. Its the knees for me but they're not that bad.  I think stretching helps keep your joints feeling good.
 I've heard that a bunch too though.  Skating can be brutal sometimes..

haha!  Too Short for sure! He used to date this girl who lived on the same block as me in Oakland.  He would pull up in limos and wow her all the time. I was only 10 and thought he was the shit.
