fan of Super Suede. I love that stuff.


I always look to see what's hot on the streets. I try not to bite any other pro shoes... so most of the ideas are from the designer's heads and mine. We kinda start from a blank shoe then fill in the blanks until it looks just about right.


The next skate technology discovery? I'm not sure, but maybe a way to keep shoes from losing their shape. After you skate a shoe for a couple weeks, you have to tighten them up. It would be tight to never have to tighten them. They can just stand strong and never have to be choked up.


I wanted to find a way to have a clean look as well as some of the DGT™ on my new shoe, so I used DC's Performance Wrap Cup Sole. It seemed like this was a perfect idea. It makes my foot feel closer to the board and gives me a bit more board control.
