Paul is from Cranbrook, British Columbia. He later moved to Vancouver for the sake of having better places to ride his skateboard. Moses Itkonen helped him out with getting sponsored in the beginning. Paul ran a skateshop in his hometown called The Boarders Choice. Some of his favorites and friends are Glenn Suggitt, Mike Hastie, Chet Thomas, and Gailea Momolu. Over the years his sponsors have included Powell, Emerica, World Industries, Darkstar, and Globe. He likes small town life and is not a fan of bad drivers. Paul was definitely pushing the boundaries of big rail and gap skating during his pro tenure. His switch and flip game were on point as well. I think he falls into the category of under appreciated ripper.
Emerica hid a few silly CanCon puns in the ad copy:
Eh?merica. Send $2 of some Timbits for info and stickers.
The jump ramp turned out fine:

Awesome
Thats a sweet little set up you have. Good solid looking manual pad.
It's a nice prop to have, but it isn't long enough. I simply don't have the room to build an 8' one.
