I was told once if I kept breaking things on my legs, that I wasn't going to be able to walk soon, you know? I wanted to be a pro skateboarder, but it was too hard. I was trying, but it wasn't going to happen.

Actually, I've always wanted to be a professional skateboarder ever since I was about six.

I grew up skateboarding, but I don't even do that anymore.

I like skateboarding. I'm here on this planet to skateboard; I feel this is what God wants me to do. I just live it. I get hurt all the time. I break bones. It's just all part of the process.

I won't quit skating until I am physically unable.

Skateboarding has given me everything I have and created who I am.

I skate now for fun and to keep myself in shape.

My whole life has been the skate life. I don't really remember doing anything besides skateboarding.

Skateboarding was the only thing I was ever good at. Growing up, I was doing that from, like, dusk till dawn.

In figure skating, your body can only last for so long. I can't be 50 and trying to skate but I can be 50 and be in fashion, so I have to look to my future and what I want to achieve.
