| What Will Powers Says |
| About Me: |
I'm not the kind of guy to ever say I'm bored. I'm not saying that I'm the most amusing person, but I will never say I am bored, because I can always find something to amuse myself with. Even if it is just my thoughts. I have alot of fun out on the road, at contests with old friends and at all the concerts, tradeshows, after parties and other misc. events. So sometimes I like some peace and quite. I just bought a hammock at the seattle hempfest and I can't wait to hang it on the deck, eat some watermelon and just listen to the birds and traffic until I pass out. I have gone to Slam City Jam 4 years in a row just for the fun of and now I'm like...I have had enough FUN this year and there's so much more to come. Do I really NEED to go? What's funny is I have heard older friends say almost the same thing and I'm like...Yeah, whatever dude you're crazy. Now here I am passing it up. My friend Max called this year to get his media pass and the lady in charge was like... So What exactly is 411 Magazine again? Huh, So obviously the new staff and owners have some obstacle to overcome in the following years. I'm not even talking about me anymore, Oh well. See what I said about amusing myself so easily. Oh Yeah, I ramble on alot...but I always work my way back to the topic which at the time is supposed to be me. So just go ahead and tell me to shut up now. |
| Goals: |
Work hard, Play hard, save a lot, spend a little, own a few homes and rides, provide for my family, hook up my friends, give back to the community and just enjoy myself as much as I can at everything I do. |
| Why I skate: |
It's fun and challenging among a million other reasons. What other hobbie/lifestyle can you have, where you can show up to any other park or spot in the world and instantly make friends, have a place to stay, a party to go to, and be introduced to the local scene within a few hours. You can't do that with a football. |
