So, how many of you have met pros? today i met 3 pro riders for the first time, Gigi Ruf, Wolle Nyvelt and Marco Feichtner. They were filming for the new absinthe movie across the street from me on a line of 5 stair sets in a row, a telephone pole tap, a hand rail and a gap through a tree, all in one continuous line.

it was cool to see next years boards, and my heros, and i noticed something... each one of them were like atleast 6 inches shorter than me haha.

So, who here has met pro riders?

There's a bunch of semi pro's and pro's poking around steamboat right now but mainly hardbooters.  I've met a few cool pro's and some serious douches.  MFM = super cool Matt and Danny Kass = douches.

haha Kass is grade A asshole.  I'm friends with a bunch of people who went to high school with him, said he's been the same pompous douchebag since birth.
uhm my pro encounters have been DCP, JP Walker, Pat Moore, Travis Kennedy, Eddie Wall (awesome dude), Stevie Bell, Joni Malmi, (basically the whole THAT crew), Kass, Shane Flood, Andreas Wiig, Scotty Arnold, Dave Schiff.  Grenade crew is pretty much beat. 

Sauce? Sauce.

I should also mention that I'd ride with Eddie Walls dad, Ed Sr.  Dude is so awesome to hang out with and all about helping to promote keeping kids on shred.
 
Don't let the MFM image fool you, the guy is seriously sincere.  He and my old roomate Niko smoked up a blunt at the Hardrock and hung out for like an hour.

i met Todd Richards last year at mtn creek during the grand prix and he was everything i expected him to be, super chill, funny, just an all around awesome guy.  it was sweet meeting him cuz he's the one of the pros that i've always looked up to and got me stoked on shredding back when i was just starting.

The one time I was called a fox I was totally floored. I knew what it meant but no one uses that term and I think it's a lot hotter than saying someone's "hot" or "cute". Maybe I'm just old fashioned like that.
 
 
Any way, for those wanting to meet a "pro", Danny Kass is going to be at the Schaumburg Zumiez for those in the Chicago area. Looks like he'll also be hitting up the one in Maplewood, MN and Rockaway, NJ. I might go just because I've been meaning to pick up a pair of Madisons there, and I want to see if he truly is an ass. And to laugh my ass off at all the fanboys/girls.

I'd rather meet Johnny Depp than most other pros actually...
I'd probably tell him he couldn't stop due to bat country.
