Daniel Shimizu #5.
"The guy in high school PE class who, no matter what sport he was playing, got hit in the head because he wasn't paying attention. I guess that's why I skate."
Daniel describes himself in a Thrasher interview back in the year 2000. At the time, he was riding for Foundation, Pig Wheels, Innes, Emerica, Venture, and Furnace Skate Shop. His car was an early 1990s piece of crap Honda Civic. He liked Mallrats and Modest Mouse. Daniel's favorite skaters of the day were Josh Beagle, Jamie Thomas, Heath Kirchart, Brian Anderson, Cairo Foster, and Kenny Reed. He also was into playing guitar.
