![]() ![]() ![]() You had a serious knee injury on a skate trip in Europe - did that ruin the trip? What did you do to stay sane while recovering? I couldn't be more stoked to be on a company. He's the ultimate TM/skoach/friend (laughs). We skate together on the weekends and after work and he pushes me to do things that I don't even think of. Tim is hilarious and we go back and forth constantly. I became so close with Tim that I almost couldn't not get on. I really cherished that, because I knew after meeting Tim Olson (The Friend Ship founder) that I was going to get to do a lot with them, and those guys were able to see it from that same perspective. ![]() I hate having to leave a crew of people that you've grown close with. Danny Montoya and Jason Maxwell and the rest of the guys were so cool about it, so understanding. You recently left Boulevard to skate for The Friend Ship, was that a tough choice? So I jumped on it, not a second thought in my head. And I've been here since, over 7 years now. I knew I wanted to move out here around that time and Jordan told me to come out and that I had a spot at the house. I was almost finished with my training to be an assistant manager at Jiffy Lube, and put in my two weeks notice immediately. Then I moved out the original 'Silent House,' which was Paul's old house that he was completely paying for! So rent was 100% covered, which was insanely selfless of Paul. I met Paul Wilson, the owner of Silent, and realized how awesome of a dude he was, and then asked the guys about getting on the team while we were all in Tampa. I knew Jordan Maxham and Chris Colbourn from skating contests, and they'd been riding for Silent Skateboards, a small company out of Palmdale, CA. Cookie (Chris Colbourn) found them on MySpace (laughs). So I got pretty damn lucky with my move to California. I ride for The Friend Ship, Lakai, The Quiet Life, Footprint Insoles, Jessup Griptape, and Mondo Vertical Wheels. I moved a lot when I was young and to me, Minnesota is my home.
