In this episode of Drawn to Your Story, I sit down with Richard, aka Sk8cho, a passionate skateboarder and host of the podcast "Where the Locals Skate". We bond over our shared love for skateboarding, reflecting on how it has shaped our lives. Richard talks about his return to skating thanks to a friend, his work at a print store, quitting drinking, and the wild story of how he got his hands on Jamie Thomas’s X Games trophy. We also dive into his experience interviewing skate legend Jeremy Wray and discuss Jeremy’s infamous water gap.
The custom illustration for this episode captures the vibe of local skate spots, featuring characters like the nostalgic old head, the unstoppable skate rat, and new kids eager to film everything. Plus, it’s awesome seeing this artwork come to life on an actual skateboard. Tune in for some skateboarding nostalgia, inspiring stories, and laughs!
