How are you doing at the moment? 


I’m fine just trying to save money for my trip.

How is your body at the moment, (injuries, knees, back, and so)?

My hand is pretty fucked for good as it broke when I was a soldier in Israel (Everybody has to do that) and that’s why I always skate with that hand thing.

When did you start to skate and why?

What tricked you into this? 
I think I started when I was 12 or so and I remember seeing a dude skating down the street and had to try it. Then I just got kind of hooked you know.

Do you think you made the right choice (instead of playing football FX?)?

Yeah I love it. I couldn’t feel the same about doing something else. Its fun.

Any person’s that influences you at the moment?

My girl and that’s really good influence.

What gets you motivated?

It just happens magically

Do you feel skateboarding is in a good way? 


Yeah it sure looks like its keep getting better and harder, seems like the level is slowly rising from year to year.

Where do you stand & please comment with skateboarding in the Olympics?

I think that its not really natural for skateboarding to get there, I think that you cant really judge who’s skating better than the other cause its usually just different styles and who’s to say what’s the best…

Who do you chill with at the moment?

Anybody who’s nice to talk to.

I’m have been on a mission,

Earning money for that trip

Throw stuff to the trash, so I have been told.

70’s style and psychedelic rock and some punk some 80’s you know. I normally call my homiest for,

I enjoy going to,

skate and shit and having fun everywhere

When was the last time you really won big time? 


I got a job in Sweden for two weeks like a month ago and made good money. It was thru Daniel the guy who teaches in the skate class with hinnerk, good guys.

When was the time you really lost big time?

I like to forget those things its better for everyone.

Best life advice I can give is,

Enjoy it.

Are you good with money (do you plan, safe it, cash in or blow it)?

I try saving up but it doesn’t work out for me all the time.

Do you care about your health?

Yeah but not too much
