How were you introduced to skateboarding and what got you started?

I started when a new park in my hometown was built. My brother is also a skater so that helped too. 

Do you remember what your first setup was?

I think it was a Variflex xps my brother gave me.

Were there any early influences on your skating?

My friends and my brother were the biggest influences on my skating.

What is the best and worst thing about your hometown?

The best thing is that I can skate with my friends and that I have the sea next to my house. The worst thing is the skatepark, it is getting old.

I like surfing, reading, music...

I wake up and I go surfing in the morning if the waves are good. Then I have two hours of english lessons (from 13.00 to 15.00). After this I go skating. On weekends and holidays I go skate somewhere.
