In 2001, Ed celebrated ten years of being pro. Thrasher did a big feature interview on his history in the July issue. His other sponsors at the time were Emerica, Rusty Clothing, Thunder, Ricta Wheels, G-Shock Watches, and CCS. Some of his favorite tricks that year were frontside feebles, Smith grinds, nosegrinds, noseblunt slides, frontside bluntslides, impossibles, 180 nosegrinds, and lipslides. He was skating with the Toy Machine team, plus Mike Vallely, Vinnie Vegas, Mark Appleyard, Brian Sumner, Arto Saari, and Geoff Rowley. Ed would probably have been starting to film for Emerica's This Is Skateboarding video at this point, too.

That trick list basically sums up his career. Ed is awesome.
