In this episode I share what I know now that I wish I knew as a young skateboarder. I talk about alternatives to becoming a pro skater that still allow us to continue being a part of skateboarding as we get older. I share the story of how I became a sponsored skater and how others could do the same. Ultimately, I'm talking directly to the lil homies who wish they could skateboard forever but think that it's only possible if they become a professional skateboarder.
