OK - here's something on the real. I'm an open book and fly like a bird. Step up or step down - Don't fuck me around. No time for bullshit - I'm down... The deal is I will never let you know until you pass the test and yes pass Go. It's not just me it's the whole fucking family - In or out, be true and don't loose clout. Keep it true, don't talk shit unless it is an agreement between me and you. It's all good, we're all from this hood. As a wise man once said. Be True To Yourself and You Will Never Fall. That's All...Northwest Native from the one true jewel that is 3 hours east of the Emerald City. At the age of 3 I began skiing with weekend instruction and training thru the winter seasons at the local mountain that had 3 rope tows and a palma lift. All I can say is that it was 10 miles from my house and back then the snow was plentiful. At the age of 13 I began traveling to Mission Ridge, WA on the weekends with my Aunt/Uncle and cousins to train in a program operated and designed by the Mayer Brothers. I competed in Junior Giant Slalom regionaly and on Powder Days our instructors would take us out to the diamonds for powder skiiing lessons. These were my favorite days. That first day of being in 18" of champange powder on a black diamond run with good amount of vertical descent changed my life forever. That was the day that I knew it would be a part of my life forever. As soon as I could stand I was put on waterskis by my father who, in his day, was one of the best rippers I've seen. Was on a kneeboard just about everyday all summer long from the time I was 12 until I discovered the Skurfer. *up first time* Once again I had embarked on a knew inspiration. within a few years I was sponsored by the local shop and getting test models from the H/O. Nothing like waking up to glassy water on an early summer morning in front of my house with full reign over the secret spots.
*After working as a golf cart attendent at the municipal golfcourse over summer at the age of 12 was I able to buy my First BMX Bike. It was a SKYWAY T/A (all white with araya rims, Redline Flight Cranks, Hutch Bear Claw Peddals,DK Neck, Uni Seat, Custom Freestyle Double Handlebars that were SKYWAY, ODI Grips with Mushrooms(if you know what they are than you're OG.) The Tires and Brakes are slipping my mind right now, but needless to say I built that bike from the frame up with hard earned money that I made working summers at the golf course. By fall I would have some left over for my first electric guitar that same year. My parents hooked up the 1/2stack with amp and lessons that I took for close to 3 years. Yep - you've figured it out by now... Shit... that was all by the time I was F*ing 13. More will come later... Fuck - right now I've got to say that It's time to take a break on this about me bull shit for now and maybe add to it later. Keep a look out for my book 'SPIN CYCLE' in about 10 years.... Yeah... you know how that goes. *maybe not*
