Hello newsletter friends! Today we bring you the first of many “Skater\/Designer” Interviews. Here is what Levi Huffman has to say about skating his own design…<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

How long have you been skating?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/strong>– I have been skating seriously for about 11 maybe 12 years. My mom bought me a skateboard for my 1st birthday so I have pretty much had one around my whole life.<\/span><\/p>\n

What is the favorite design that you have done?
\n<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/strong>– Every design I’ve made is my favorite one, but if I had to choose one I think it would my first deck I made the Levi Vato deck, or wait the ninja turtle deck… I love them all.<\/span><\/p>\n

Where do you get the inspiration for your designs?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/strong>– I am an artist, I love to draw, I get inspired by almost everything I see because potentially everything could make a sick deck.<\/span><\/p>\n

How does skating your own design affect your skating?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/strong>– Well if I’m skating my ninja turtle deck and I’m having trouble landing a trick I’ll pop my board up and look at the graphic and think to myself COWABUNGA DUDE! Then I’ll stick the trick most of the time.<\/span><\/p>\n

What do you like about skating your design?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/strong>– I like skating my design because most people see it and they are like that’s a sick board and I can tell them that I made it.<\/span><\/p>\n

Favorite trick\/spot?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/strong>– My favorite trick would have to be a Benihana because a lot of people hate on that trick and not many people do them. My favorite spot to skate is the Wheat Ridge Skatepark.<\/span><\/p>\n

Any advice for young skaters\/designers?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/strong>– Skate for Life and love every second of it. Don’t take anything for granted. Always wear a helmet it could save your life.<\/span><\/p>\n

Other sponsors?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/strong>– Bern, Globe, DVLP, Diabolical Skate Shop<\/span><\/p>\n
