I am a dude who feels like they're
[6]
living out that childhood fantasy or at
[9]
least trying to I grew up in the woods I
[12]
fantasized the value you know movies and
[14]
things that I saw and I just wanted to I
[17]
wanted to live that out and I'm also
[20]
trying to do two things at the same time
[22]
trying to see what I can do with
[23]
skateboarding and seeing what I can do
[26]
with and in movies so I just moved to LA
[41]
you know that feeling when you're a
[43]
little kid and you first learn kickflip
[45]
so you're first on any trick on a
[46]
skateboard there's a feeling where
[49]
you're like you can't believe it's ever
[50]
gonna go down or if it's ever possible
[51]
and then you do it and it's like this
[54]
realization and how amazing it feels and
[56]
how rad is right well experimental
[57]
skateboarding is that except for you
[60]
create new situations constantly instead
[63]
of going yes I can three flip he'll flip
[64]
whatever flat ground trick it makes
[66]
gives you the ability to constantly
[68]
surprise yourself and you both set it up
[71]
and then you play it out and it makes
[72]
you feel like a mad scientist it's cool
[74]
what influence is my skateboarding is to
[77]
take all the things that I like around
[80]
me no matter what it is and I put it
[83]
into the one thing I'm doing at that
[84]
time
[100]
[Music]
[114]
I got it's not worth it for a couple of
[145]
reasons one because I like skateboarding
[147]
so much but on the same in the same
[150]
token I like action and I like action
[152]
movies and stunts just as much and
[155]
obviously that reflects on my
[156]
skateboarding but I think it's cool to
[158]
both put them together and then divide
[159]
them up and so once skateboarding I kind
[162]
of made some satisfying things with that
[164]
I wanted to divide up then and really
[166]
try and like work on stunt work and make
[168]
that something that I felt as good about
[170]
as I do
[177]
so I think the biggest contrast between
[179]
the two things I've been doing while I'm
[181]
out here skateboarding it's not working
[183]
is that in skateboarding the point is to
[185]
obviously land and tricking yeah you
[186]
take some bad signs along the way but
[188]
it's kind of a byproduct and with stunt
[191]
work and it's so rare that you land on
[193]
your feet that actually the slams aren't
[194]
the byproduct but the project itself
[197]
really interesting I've been super
[217]
fortunate with the way things had gone
[218]
the the two things I came out here to do
[221]
if somehow it intersected I've had the
[224]
opportunity to do them both at the same
[225]
time so hopefully I'll get to keep doing
[246]
