I park two blocks away from Nickelodeon studios and I hop on my skateboard and I skateboard the rest of the way to the studio.

Growing up, I absolutely loved skateboarding and dirt bike riding with my brother and the neighborhood kids.

I was about 15, 16 years old when my father first ran for mayor, and that's where I cut my teeth.

Skateboarding was everything to us growing up. It changes the way you see the world: you spend all day looking for ditches.

I started skating when I was about 10 years old. It was in an alleyway. I picked up my brother's skateboard and stood on it. I started to roll down the alley, and I yelled at my brother asking him how I turn the thing. At the end of the alley, I just jumped off, picked up the board and physically turned it around.

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

As a kid in British Columbia, going back a long way, I learned to skate.

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

Growing up in Huntington Beach, you were either a traditional sports athlete, a skateboarder, or a surfer. I got my first skateboard when I was five and skated off and on over the years, did a little BMX racing as a kid, and then in my freshman or sophomore year I started getting a little bit more into skateboarding.

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