“I THOUGHT I WAS HAVING FUN,


BUT IT WAS PRETTY MUCH


THE SAME DAY OVER AND OVER”


What are the rewards of staying sober?
Time. Life is fucking short and I no longer feel
like I’m squandering my precious time here. I
get to enjoy the good shit in life fully, instead
of through the self-medicated haze I was in.
Also skateboarding is more fun than it’s ever
been. Nothing beats that.
What advice would you give to someone
who wants to quit?
Don’t be afraid to ask for help. People
everywhere are struggling or have struggled.
Skate a lot or do something physical. It takes
a lot of time and energy to be a pile, so you’re
left with a lot. Use it wisely.

Burn or get burnt. Spanky’s
comeback has been epic to watch
