Interview with Evan Alpert

Evan, what is it that drives you to skate so much?

So much haha. I feel unaccomplished if i don't skate, it's all I ever think about, the feeling of landing what you were trying to do is the best feeling ever.

What advice do you have for skaters looking to get sponsored?

Practice, and have fun. Don't get to obsessed with trying to get sponsored, enjoy skateboarding, and when you have a lot of great footage go for it.

What's the latest trick you're working on?

Well haven't really been working on anything, but I've been having fun with double flips and bs 360 kickflips, those are mega fun.

How many times has a pebble prevented your greatness?

hahah too many.. way too many. If you guys saw my video with my hand.. not sure if that was a pebble but man did that take of a large portion of skin off my hand.

Yeah, I saw that, it was heinous! --Did you get your revenge?

haha I'm actually planning on to, not gonna lie I'm pretty scared, but I'm defiantly wearing a glove this time.

Nice. Have you ever gone back to slay such a pebble with your bare hands for vengeance?

hahah literally? I don't know bout that, those things have their ways

Evan the merciful. I respect that.

ahaha yee :]:]

Anything you'd like to say to your fans?

Thanks for watching my skating. I've been holding back a lot (my friends know that) and I have major plans of changing that.

Who is the best team manager you've ever known?

Pfftt Jared Rich obviously haha. This guy is the man and has done everything he can to help me out. He is an awsome guy and I got major respect for him ;]

I respect that. Thanks. ;)

haha no problem man, meant all of it

What's it like to be on Blankdecks.com A Team?

Pretty awsome, these decks/ other gear are the best. I haven't gotten one thing from this site that I didn't like.

Definitely a privilege

Do you think you'll ever skate for Vile too?

haha I realllly hope so, their graphics are so tight and there boards are sick. I'd love to, but I've learned to keep my hopes chill. But that'd definitely make me stoked.

You've skated a Vile deck right?

i put my trucks on it and tested it out, but i'm saving it for some boss footage

That's sick. Those decks are something else. It's a shame to assemble them on less than quality trucks, wheels, bearings, hardware, risers, and griptape.

That's it! Thank you for your time Evan, I'll let you get back to your skating/filming.

haha no problem man :]:]

Any last words?

Never quit shredding
