I had no place to live and my girl had left me at the time. The name is also ironic because I’ve never done drugs, I’m anti drugs actually.

I met Craig when he was about 15 and he was super annoying, he’d ask you 5 Questions and not give you the time to answer any of them, it took a few years to get used to what he was like, but deep down he’s a really good guy. He did a board for me ages ago when I had a pro board, and he always hits me up with ideas for board graphics. He’s one of my best friends now. Stoked I got to see him last week and Skate with him.

They all contact me from all over the world, like the Japanese guys as well as the Canadian guys from Barrier Kult and the guys in England who I grew up skating with, they all seem attracted to the originality of the brand I guess.

9.Morbid future plans?
