(R: Ben Ross. Pole Jam Method into the Hip Wall P:Blatt)(Q: Tom - A: Ben)
Q: So Ben, you're working at HCSC this summer, whatcha doin' out there?
A: I'm diggin', so pretty much building the park learning how to be a badass.
Q: You know I applied for the digger job...right? (Jerk) Im Kidding, I mean...I did, but I'm way more stoked you got it. You havin fun out there?
A: haha Yeah hopefully you can get you here soon. It's a ton of work but also really fun to ride what you just built. You can come up with an idea for something sick to build and then make it happen, that's the best part.
Q: Any certain dudes or gals that you're way stoked on seeing kill it on the daily?
A: Well Scott Stevens puts it down every day and Grendys and Tim Eddy have become two of my favorite people to shred with. There's somany sick people rolling through the park every day it's crazy. Kooley, Mendenhall and B. Fox have been ripping around and love to watch those guys.
Q: Yeah. Scott and Grendys are working super hard huh? Have any certain tricks or anything else that you've been stoked on or working on?
A: Yeah they are. Umm, I got 180 on 3 off all 4 ways on the long down rail the otherday. Stoked on that. Method front 5 is another I finaly got down good. As far as working on stuff...lots of switch presses and a little stuff in the pipe too.
Q: Will you do me a favor and try to learn switch lip to 5-0 on a down rail or a flat-down rail?
A: Sure, why not. front or back lip? I'll try both. ha
Q: Front lip, switch back lip, are you kidding, that trick's hard? Did you see the new Nike video?
A; Yeah it was pretty sick
(Ben Ross-backside grab over the spine. Photo-Blatt)Q: How rad is Grant Taylor? Oh my lord. Dude fucking put it down huh?
A: Oh man soo good. He just kills it so hard.
Q: Alright, enough, go skateboard, but real quick...who's helpin you out on the gear end of things?
A: Step Child, Dagon, and of course EB
Q; Thanks Ben. I'll be sure to hook it up with a stack of Dooks stickers sooner rather than later.
A: ha Sick!
