"I might be one of the only skateboarders who can honestly say this, but I never had any desire to be a pro skateboarder because I was realistic. Even just getting sponsored was a gift to me. That's why I appreciate every single time I step on a skateboard, I will work 40 hours a week doing manual labor and still make time, even if it is raining. Yeah, it would be awesome to own an apartment in New York and have a car. Right now I'm driving around in a pickup truck my grandfather gave me because he bought a new one at a yard sale. That's how I grew up."
Making it work.
