Skating has been a very important part of my life ever since I was 15 and moved near Virginia Beach ,Virginia- the home of Mount Trashmore and it’s legendary skateboard history. 35 years later I’m finally getting a chance to make skateboards and work with some of my childhood heros! It was through my first printmaking workshop that I taught at Hurley that I met Paul Schmitt and after that the magic started happening! Back in June of 23 I got an exciting email from another legendaryu skateboard manufacturer! Brad Dorfman invited me to make woodcut versions of some classic Vision Skateboards. Thework I did with Brad has led to the opportunity to create my own skateboards via his new company Select.
