<\/div>\n
BoardPusher sponsored rider, Levi Huffman, is looking for a new deck design and we’re looking to you to create it for him.  Levi will hand pick his favorite design and it will be featured in various media outlets with your name attached to it.  The best part is you will receive a free deck with your design.  And now to get a feel for the person you are designing for, here’s some info about Levi Huffman:<\/div>\n

HOMETOWN<\/strong>
\nWheat Ridge (White Rich), Colorado<\/p>\n

SETUP<\/strong>
\n8.0\u2033 BoardPusher Levi Decks, Indy Trucks, BoardPusher and Diabolical Wheels, Black Panther Bearings.<\/p>\n

HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN SKATING?<\/strong>
\nMy mom bought me a skateboard for my 1st birthday so I have pretty much had one around my whole life.  My friend David\u2019s big brother Doug got us really into it.  He’s the one that made it look like fun to me.  Now I have been skating seriously for about 11 maybe 12 years.<\/p>\n

INSPIRATION<\/strong>
\nLiving, my daughters Stella & Ravenna, and the rest of my Family.<\/p>\n

FAVORITE TRICK<\/strong>
\nMy favorite trick would have to be a Benihana because a lot of people hate on that trick and not many people do them.<\/p>\n

ADVICE FOR YOUNG SKATERS<\/strong>
\nSkate for Life and love every second of it.  Don\u2019t take anything for granted.  Always wear a helmet it could save your life.<\/p>\n

FAVORITE VIDEO<\/strong>
\nThe End.<\/p>\n

OTHER SPONSORS<\/strong>
\nBern, Globe, Lit Apparel, Diabolical Skate Shop<\/p>\n

ODDEST SKATE SPOT<\/strong>
\nWork after hours in the warehouse.  Couldn’t resist the pushcart and other goodies to grind.<\/p>\n

STRANGEST MOMENT ON A SKATE TRIP<\/strong>
\nComing out of The King of The Road party and into a scene out of a B Theater Movie.  Crazed street bum had a knife out and was going after Daewon Song as our wheel man Vendola was taking the bum from the side.  It was very strangely surreal.<\/p>\n

FUNNIEST MOMENT WITH A BOARDPUSHER EMPLOYEE<\/strong>
\n(As I asked this I thought about getting nailed with a spit wad during Levi’s entrance today.) I don’t know, too many antics to count.<\/p>\n

FAVORITE CARTOON THEME SONG TO SKATE TO OTHER THAN TMNT<\/strong>
\n(No answer, just continuously played theme songs from his phone ranging from Rescue Rangers to Ren & Stimpy.  Then a challenge ensued over how fast we could recognize sitcom theme songs.)<\/p>\n

CLASSIEST REST\/TRUCK STOP EXPERIENCE<\/strong>
\nOne road trip I got stuck in a driving daze and was the only one who could drive.  Pulled in to get a cup off coffee and lost $50 somehow in the process.  Most expensive cup to date.<\/p>\n

BEST HISTORICAL FIGURE NOT KNOWN FOR ART THAT WOULD MAKE THE BEST SKATEBOARD GRAPHICS<\/strong>
\nBuffalo Bill due to his gnarly beard and endless supply of blood to paint with.<\/p>\n

LEVI RANDOM FUN FACTS<\/strong>
\nCan’t smell,  can only taste hot sauce,  Funyuns are a favorite snack,  likes lasers, but not the womp womp,  doesn’t know what a “Skrillex” is, has a tattoo of a Ninja Turtle to show his undying love for TMNT, has never worn Levi’s,  has a taxidermy Bongo that ended up being the centerpiece of his basement bar.<\/strong><\/p>\n
