Manifest Skate Shop owner Mike Johnston told us everything:
Funniest injury? Breaking my nose in two places and getting a concussion from riding down a long steep hill late at night after drinking.
What's fun to you? The most fun times I've had are when I'm traveling to new places to skate with my friends.
What's something all skaters should know? Every skater should know that skateboarding is whatever you want it to be. If you're on a skateboard you're skating.
Flatground or vert? Gotta say flatground, but vert skating is incredible and I'd like to get better at it.
Favorite dessert? Chocolate peanut butter ice cream in a waffle cone.
What’s your life’s anthem? Bitter Sweet Symphony by The Verve. It's the alarm song on my phone ha!
Biggest fear? My biggest fear is feeling stuck being afraid. If I feel afraid I try to remember I can change that.
If you were a DJ what DJ name would you have? Cheddar Milan.
What terrible movie do you love? Street Dreams- it's on Youtube and I highly recommend.
What’s love? Love is the truth that we are all one. One love!
Ready?
