Where are you from?

The mutha fucking East Coast.

Favorite thing to skate?

Pools.

Best pool you’ve skated?

The yuppie (RIP). Those in the know got to shred, those who weren’t missed out.

Electric or gas?

Electric is way less hassle. I’m working on a battery powered pump that will change everything!

Got a good Freddy story?

All the good ones are a little too incriminating for print but I will say this, only Freddy could get pulled over three times in one night, by the same cop, with no good excuse except that we were trying to pump out a pool at 1 a.m. And somehow we got out of it every time. Only Fred!

Do you have a roof over your head yet?

Yup, bought a house in Pittsburgh… No more sleeping in the car.

Ever been too high?

Not possible.

Longest time you’ve spent of the road?

Four years without a home was like an endless road trip.

How long have you known Fritz?

Too long.

Is it ever ok to steal?

Only from corporate chains. Leave the mom and pop shops alone.

Should pools be shared or kept secret? Spots?

Always secret, real gangsters don’t need to talk.

Camera set up?

Nikon with some flashes.

Skate set up?

Oj’s, Indy’s, Antihero.

Morning or night?

Depends…Mornings for a mission, night time for cruising.

First time you got drunk?

1992…Ouzo from my parents liquor cabinet.

Shoot film much?

Load, shoot, develop, and scan? No thanks.

How’d you get into photography?

Dumb luck.

Most stairs you’ve ever hucked?

Big 11 in downtown Detroit 2001. I keep it low to the ground these days.

Craziest thing you’ve ever seen John Gardner do?

Everything he does is crazy, risking it all, just for the stoke. I truly believe he just likes to scare himself.

Best substitute for a pillow?

A skateboard works well for a street nap but a shoe wrapped in a jacket is my choice for an over-nighter.
