Growing Up
As I finish packing up my childhood room in preparation for my big move to California, I am forced to take down some things off of my walls that have directly influenced who I am today. Some of the things included:
- A poster from Tony Hawk’s Boom Boom Huck Jam that I attended & my ticket stub from the event
- An article from 2001 about Colin MacKay and how himself and Bruce Crisman were the futures of BMX
- Ad’s featuring riders on the newest and greatest bikes or boards from the late 90’s
- Pictures of me from when I first met Chad Reed in 2002
&& The list goes on and on.
It’s just interesting to see how 10 years ago Action Sports were truly my life, and how little has changed since then. Sure the athletes have matured, and the sports have progressed farther than some people could have imagined, but I still watch events the same way I did 10 years ago. Still in awe at what these athletes can do & it’s like I’m a kid again.
i miss your face. terribly.
