Hey Ry, what’s crackin?
Nothin much icy just browsin the internet world before i head back to the skatepark.

Tell everyone how I got that name.
How you got the name ICE TOE?? haha well i believe it was during my thuper thweet sixteenth birthday party at Mt. Hood. After a day a shrapling t-line and hiding from MTV you started complaining about your foot so you took off your boot to discover it was purple. I think you broke it and for the rest of the trip you just soaked it in a shalbot home-made ice box. so ever since then you've got the privilege of of being called ice toe by everyone who came on the most hyphy b-day trip to date.

That was a pretty fun trip. So you are 16 and you just got your license, was that a big deal for you?
Yea for sure. Especially after finding my car missing the day of my license appointment, barely making it on time, then calling mom to bring my proof of insurance cause i forgot it, having the car die as i started the test and THEN having to drive to Mt. Vernon to get it the next day. I finally copped it though and ever since have had trouble keeping girls out of the car.

Now that Don-D and the Madre let you drive the Taurus Wagon around do you have any super summer plans?
hahaha yea the Taurus Wagon is definitely taking me places in life i never could have imagined and building my street cred. My main plans are makin a couple trips to hood and whistler, swimming at Greenlake when it gets hot , workin on a little sample album with my friend, ghost riding the whip every day, designing a little for UniThreads and skatin at the new woodland park skate park everyday!

What about work? Are you gonna work at the petting zoo again this summer?
Without a doubt. Only the coolest of the cools can be found at the petting zoo. WPZ rpsnt

What’s you favorite animal?
Slow Loris.
|
That’s actually a nickname you picked up. Care to fill me in on the story there, I have an idea?
I think i picked it up from some friends either up at Western or from a certain guy named Chris Shalbot. It was during the days when I discovered this nocturnal creature at the zoo called the Slow Loris that i had to let everyone know about. For some reason people started calling me a loris and from there it just sort of stuck.
|
You just picked up a whole new set up. Whatcha you get?
K2 Silencers and Salomon SPK boots. Fresh ta deff. Then I came in and swooped a pair of fresh white and blue Lakai MJ Highs and an evo gold shop deck.
|
And you got that here right? You don’t live too far from here but there are some other shops around so why evo?
Yup evo’s always number one when I need something new. The thing about evo that separates it from the pack to me has always been its originality. I remember when the shop first opened up I was blown away by how much different stuff they had that I liked, where as most other shops I’d been to just had a small portion of things i might be looking for. You can tell that evo actually cares about what their promoting while being more in touch with the kids and what they look for in a shop. The over all vibe is just really chill compared to other places too and everyone working there seems stoked on the goods and what people are interested in.
