-----today i was bombarded with questions by 13 year olds on how to get sponsored. i feel bad for them because when i was at that age skateboarding, we never thought about that shit. me and my little brothers just wanted to scour ukiah, and find everything we could skate on. but i guess that makes me sound old, cuz thanks to the hex-gaymes, everyone wants the big sponsor deal. so i tried to tell them just skate the way you like, travel and meet tons of people. we all know from being in skateboarding for so long that it is all about who you know. so if you do the above, and don't act like a ass-wipe you can get hooked up. look at me for petes sake. 35, married with 2 kids, and skates like a douche. i am not marketable at all. and still seem to hold it down. so if you kids need a visual out there, here it is. be yourself. cuz if you are that stylee, you will get a ride just like this guy. one of the best video parts in that last few years, and nobody knows who richie jackson is. so if you wanna keep lookin fo el toro or hollywood high, so be it. no matter what you do down them this guy will out style you. everyone knows how bad i hate hippies. but this guys part is ruling.
