"My goal, my dream has
already come true. Every kid's
dream is to become a pro
skater, you know? Not only
have I become a pro skater,
but to me personally, I ride for
the best sponsors there are.
That's even more than I ever
expected... I didn't skate to
please everyone else. I started
skating because I love to
skate. you gotta watch out
because there will come a
point where you'll forget that."
