For those of you familiar with Trey Abrams, you might know him for a different talent depending on when you met him. His life has been a kaleidoscope of passions and subcultures revolving around skateboarding at the core of it - not unlike the Tony Hawk games he attributes the beginnings of his obsessions to. In our interview, we discuss why Trey fell in love with skateboarding and videography, how he ended up getting a job at Rukus skate shop, and what it’s been like running Full Court Classics New Orleans, a vintage shop in the French Quarter.
