How did you get into longboarding? When?

Striker Lyons convinced me to buy my first landyachtz DH at the
slam city jam when i was 16 just before the first Danger Bay race.

What was your first longboard?
A Downhill lowrider one of the oldies, I rode it even when it was broken to the point of dragging the back end on the
ground

Your best (worst I guess you could say) crash?
I've crashed to many times to remember but probably the time I ripped the Madeira corner with my broken DH and it
bounced then wobbled and chucked me strait on my face I got up and noticed I was seeing pretty funny so luckily a
truck was coming at the same time and the guy avoided running me over and brought me to the Clinic.

Greatest longboarding experience?
Going to Sheep Creek in Raggie's motor home with a keg of beer in the shower. oh ya!!!

Confirmed top speed?
100km               

Favorite Board?
Evo

Favorite hill?
Giants Head

Hill you have to hit before you’re done?
The hill I eventually make here in Pender that goes strait down the mountain.
