i skated high for so many years and it affected my performance in a negative way. so for me, the answer is to skate clean not necessarily straight. my experience is that the clearer your perception is the better you do anything that takes a lot of concentration, skill, and grace. thank you for this question. i'm happy to share my experience on this topic.

I was one of the authenticity consultants on the film, so if it sucks, I'm partly to blame. but seriously, I enjoyed the film, working with the stunt doubles, the actors, and last but not least, the director, katherine hardwick. she's a good friend and a pleasure to work with. also, to be of note, heath ledger was our star and this is one of his last films.

I've only seen one of his video games: American Wasteland because I'm one of the characters. And I spend most of my time out of doors instead of in front of a screen playing or watching video games.

No, but I probably will. And I'm hoping to have been a positive influence on all other skateboarders for life.
