| When did you start skating?
When I was 13 after I saw the Prayer of the Rollerboys film
When did you start slalom?
2 years ago
Your feelings when you do slalom?
Is Nathan watching?
How did you enter the team?
Seba asked Naomi Grigg to introduce a couple of freestyle riders
to the UK distributor and we met up to check out the skate. We had
already seen Seba and the Korean skaters doing some fantastic stuff
in them and so I was keen to get on board.
What do you think about future of slalom skating?
It looks good especially with the introduction of battle slalom
competitions. I think it will make riders push themselves more instead
of just practicing the same routine for every competition, they
will have to be a bit more creative with what they do in competitions.
What do you think about the skates?
It’s a difficult question to answer, having never skated
on them! (we expect them in the UK in January) but the UK distributor
brought me a sample to try and I like the look of the stiff frame
and the support it offers to the foot.
Your projects?
Naomi Grigg and some other UK slalom skaters are promoting freestyle
skating in London (particularly schools), and both myself and Nathan
are on the demo team.
Something you want to add?
Um….no
