How are you? Good, but really sore from Simple Session.

What’s new in your life? Being single, and starting the new Verde video.

You have been killing it lately from Simpel Session to web videos. How do you feel about the last year or so with the way things have picked up for you?
It’s cool I guess. I mean I finally got the oppertunity to film a full part for a video im siked on – Deadline video. Riding has been really really fun lately.

I know you had an edit drop the other day from Woodward. Have you been working on any more web edits or what?
Haha, the Woodward vid wasn’t supposed to have me in it. We were low on clips so I filmed a couple. Many people don’t know that I’m really into filming and Kyle Carlson gave me a little side job doing edits for Vital, but I don’t wanna put myself in them, they’re for my friends you know?

It sounds like Verde will be doing a trip pretty soon to start work on their first team DVD. Do you have any big plans for your part? Do you have any other video parts you are working on?
Well, currently I’m working on my Deadline part. I still got a lot to do for that, but after it’s done, it’s full go again for the verde video. I’m psyched! I got a lot of stuff planned for the Verde vid man, a lot. Plus, we’re going on a lot of trips and doing this vid right! Thanks to Steve, Cory and Will.

How are things going with the rest of your sponsors? Anything big going on with any of them?
Not really, I kind of dropped everything. I’m not riding for wack ass Alpinestars anymore due to my choice. I’m done jumping on lame sponsors. I’m just gonna wait for good stuff to come around, stuff I’m psyched on. So, right now I just riding for Verde/Greenhouse.

Where are you right now?
California, Layin in bed and it’s 12:09pm…

Where are you off to next?
Hawaii with Justin Burns, Brian Yeagle, Dave Thompson, Will Stroud and Rob Dolecki. It’s like a kick off trip/ vacation for the Verde vid.

Tell us something people might not know about you.
I love dogs, I don’t know hahaha.

What does 2010 have in store for you? Are you going to be doing the Dew Tour and what not this summer?
Ehhh, summer is just filming, filming, and more filming. I’m most likely not doing the Dew Tour, but I’d love to do the street X Games thing.

Other than the Verde trip to Hawaii, what are some trips you have planned out so far?
For Verde we got a couple over sea’s trips getting planned out, and I really wanna do an Atalnta trip, a couple of San diego trips, and a Southwest trip.

Any plans for tonight? Going out with some friends to the bars and what not. See what girls are there haha.
