Phil Shao #7.



“I hardly knew him, besides shooting with him. But, you could tell he was super nice. Even though we weren’t close, we had a good talk; he was a student and not your average stoner/skateboarder guy. He actually hurt his knee on the trick in the photo. He twisted his knee and just lay on the ground and said, ‘Oh no, I’m messed up.’” - Grant Brittain

Phil was an all around ripper who passed away twelve years ago in a car accident. He rode for Think, Venture and Emerica.
