I started skating about three years ago and started skating vert in November of 2005 after watching the pros in the Dew Tour. I like skating street and bowls too.

My buddy Mitch and I dropped in at RDS (RIP) in Feb 2006 and haven't looked back. Got to skate in vert demos during all five stops of last year's Dew Tour, and at Slam City Jam in Calgary. Doing three stops of this year's Tour, which is a blast.

My newest vert tricks are switch b/s airs, gay twists, slob airs, and half-cab rock to fakie. Newest miniramp tricks are switch nosegrinds and blunts.

In Seattle, I ride mostly at Skatebarn West, which is a great indoor park (essential in Seattle). In San Diego/LA, I love Vans, the Clairemont YMCA, and any session time I can score on private ramps in Vista.

When I'm not skating I like to read, jump on my trampoline, play with my brother/sister and with my dogs. In the winter, I like to snowboard. I just started hitting double black diamond hills last winter.
