Interview
summary
Skateboarding is framed as art and philosophy not a sport, with value placed on personal expression over contest rankings, and video parts that can take years to produce; sustained effort and the willingness to fail repeatedly — for example chasing a 360 flip through months of tries while recovering from injuries that left bones fused — beat raw talent. Practice habits include stepping away to regroup, borrowing ideas from peers, and treating the scene like an open source community where shared moves evolve into a communal language and identity as art.
