So Will, tell us how you got in to Skateboarding?
Well I first got into skateboarding when I was around 13, however I never really put much effort into it except for learning how to ollie and cruise around, but started properly to skate with Declan at the end of year 11.
How old are you and what are you doing at the moment, work, college etc.?
I am 17 years old and I currently am doing btech science and engineering manufacturing courses at college, and hopefully by the end I can get a good apprenticeship.
I also have a job working at the MKM and I have been there for almost 2 years now.
Well looks like it has always been with you then, if you really started getting into it again!
Sounds interesting about the engineering, what do you want to do with that then?
Well the college I go too helps alot with apprenticeships, so when it comes too it I would love to hopefully earn an apprenticeship working with a renewables company like Siemens, where I can work on wind turbines in the field.
Seems like you have a good direction dude, hope it all Works out for you man!
Thank you I hope it works out aswell!
Do you skate when you can? or do you have other hobbies which you can do when the weather is whack?
I mostly skate whenever I have my board and I have free time, but if I'm not skating I'm either practicing guitar or playing football with my mates.
Hull seems to have poor weather at the moment, so rain or shine I make time to skate at the history centre.
Hull has been needing an indoor park ever since Rockcity shut down.
So whats the plans over winter then, we need an indoor park right!
Me and a few of my mates said that the old KFC down bev road close to Quay, would be a good place for a small indoor park or DIY.
This is true.
Yep I looked at that building but costs like £5,000 per month to rent, mental!
£5,000 grand a month is mental for a building of that size.
Definitely but it is a resturant building, so will make plenty of money no doubt to pay that amount.
Right lets wrap this up there Will cheers for being Novembers skater of the month!
Thank you so much for all of this i’ve had a blast being able to make something of myself with this little side hobby, I cannot wait to see what the future has in store!!!
