    An Old Jerry Hsu Interview

    I found an old Jerry Hsu interview with GQ where Jerry talks about some of the origins of Sci-fi Fantasy, his style and his influences as he grow up in skateboarding watching other Pros.

    An old interview but new to me. At the time of this interview Sci-Fi Fantasy wasn’t even a board company. Jerry was just making shit and putting it online. Which is what I try to do. Find something cool and share it with the people. Lately it’s been a lot more articles and videos, music and what not but I am aware originality is what people want. Shit originality is what I want.

    Jerry Hsu is definitely an American original. And it’s skaters and people like Jerry show you how to carve your own path by just watching what they do because you not going to find another person like him.

  • Vitoria Mendonca

    It dope to see Vitoria get a Followed.  She’s been coming up out of brazil. Like anything nowadays, she popped up on the algorithm and I’ve been passively watching her skating grow here and there. Looks like she’s killing it. She’s got a colorway with Adidas coming out, she’s been on jenkem magazine for a feature, and today pocket mag is releasing a followed? She’s on her shit. Gotta show some love!

    the heelflip is like that. and Vitoria’s vibe is unmatched.

  • Who’s Matty Matheson?

    I’ve been fasting since Monday so it’s only natural I start watching foodie content on youtube to torture myself and I came across Matty Matheson. I’ve seen dude for years online and in that hulu show, the bear. Never dug too deep on the guy but I like his style and tattoos. 

    That’s kind of myself when I see someone interesting, I see them and just watch from afar for a bit to see if it’s just an act or if they’re the real thing. Matheson has been popping up and coming across as this rugged dude that knows how to cook/actor/internet personality and messes with motorcycles.

     So yesterday finally I typed his name into the ol’ YouTube search bar and a living proof interview popped up. Instantly I was like I got to see this! Living Proof hasn’t failed me yet when it comes to introducing me to interesting people and if they’re during an interview with Matheson this guy must be real and have a hell of a story. And for sure it was! Peep this.
