Other action sports that you participate in: Nothing can be better than Skateboarding, trust me!
How did you start skateboarding? My parents wanted me to learn tennis and so on, but I was never interested in such sports, so I stole some money from my sister to buy a discount board because I also wanted to practice things that my friends actually do.  Since buying it, I take my board everywhere. One day there was such a huge skate park – I couldn’t believe my eyes. And there were so many nice guys who taught me the basics and ever since then I’ve never stopped!! Now I teach other guys the basics! =) 
What is your proudest moment in skateboarding? Being able to travel and meet other people from diverse countries/cultures. But the proudest moment in my little career in skateboarding was, when Nikita called me back, that “You” yes you are a new team member – This moment I will never forget!
