Any special modifications to your bike?
No mods, like to keep simple and clean looking.
Looks like you have some signature grips in the works from Primo, how has that process been going and when are they hitting the shops?
Yea, been good I came up with a design I liked and Neal at Cult helped clean it up and get it to what it looks like now. I’m siked on it. I’m not sure when they’ll be out yet, I should have the samples real soon and we’re gonna finish up the packaging this week…hopefully soon.
How’s filming coming along for the new Cult Talk is Cheap DVD?
It’s been good, was kind slow this summer because we were without a camera but Robbie came through and helped out with getting a camera to us and it’s going good now.
Wildest thing you’ve seen go down while riding in the hood?
Well just recently I was out in Philly and while we were at a spot this dude sitting on a bench who was on something tried to stand a few times and the last time he finally got up, took about 2 steps and fell backwards, then cracked his head on the sidewalk and KO’d himself.
Shouts?
Big shouts to Robbie and the homies at Cult, Nate and everyone at Primo, Josh at Operativ, Badders and Vans, my family and girlfriend for always supporting me and being down, all the homies from home who I ride with everyday, and my true friends who helped me get to where I am today. Thanks for everything, peace.
