Hometown? 

Fernside a.k.a Redfern the projects of the city as I like to call it. People think its gnarly but I have lived there almost my whole life and I am proud to call it home sweet home. 

Age?

 19 years young and feeling fresh

How long have you been skating?

For me skating is not about how long you have been doing it for, its about the love and passion you have for it and making it a part of you....those who do skate, will understand, but if your really curious its been about 6 years.

Favourite spot to skate? 

There are a few on my list, waterloo skatepark is in my blood. But the spots would be martin place, Chifley plaza, harmony park, basically downtown Syd city. Come to think of it I rarely go on missions anywhere else to shred.

Favourite trick that you are yet to master?

FS Big spins is the trick I am yet to land let alone master but I know one day it will come to me....Hopefuly 

Who influences your style?

Defiantly Daewon Song, his creative mind on a piece of wood will blow anyone away also his pin point balance with flip in flip out manuals are bulls*%t good.

Likes?

Pretty much anything to do with life. Getting buck wild.

Dislike?

Not haters I love em.

Free plane ticket and what would you do?

Take myself to Europe travel around Spain and England check out the old Trafford stadium and skate the streets of Barcelona.

What do you do when your not skating?

Kicking back at the 117 house with the homies and do what a 19 year old should do.

Shout outs.
