There's nothing more ridiculous than seeing yourself in a video game.

The serious professional skateboarder doesn't have a job. They get paid enough not to.

As a professional skateboarder, I can't look at anyone getting hurt - it freaks me out.

The reality of professional skateboarding contests is that they're not relevant in our world.

Sure things are going to get sketchy, but when your having the time of your life whats sketchy?

For me, part of one my big movements is building authentic street environments for skateboarding.

In life some people trip and some fall but some take that trip and make a beautiful dance out of it.

As skateboarding evolved, it evolved away from competition. Having a best-trick contest doesn't work.

You don't know where life's gonna take you. Sometimes it takes you getting carried out of a club and then into a booth as an apology for it.

If I liked an idea, even slightly, I would throw some money at it. I've had a lot of random things not work out that people don't know about.

Skateboarding for me is a whole lot different for me than before the TV fame, if you will, because going out in the street is a little bit different.
