honestly, scootering is the most fun when i learn new tricks or get better at a trick i wasnt already good at, and that keeps me riding and improving


What challenges or obstacles have you faced and or facing in the sport, and how did you overcome and or overcoming them?

one of the biggest obstacles ive faced was boardsliding hollywood 16. I was 16 and had no business being anywhere near that rail, and it kind of taught me to block out my thoughts and fears.

My goals for scootering honestly are to make some really cool videos and to go on some fun trips with my friends.
