I feel like skateboarding is as much of a sport as a lifestyle, and an art form, so there's so much that that transcends in terms of music, fashion, and entertainment.

When I started skating, it was such a small community. You didn't aspire to be rich or famous or make a career out of it because that wasn't something anyone had done yet.

I consider skateboarding an art form, a lifestyle and a sport. 'Action sport' would be the least offensive categorization.

You might not make it to the top, but if you are doing what you love, there is much more happiness there than being rich or famous.
