"When I think about what draws me to certain skaters, the two biggest factors are style and trick selection. That’s what makes the greats stand out. Just look at Gonz, Gino, Puleo and Dill. These guys have done their share of gnarly skating, but what makes them interesting and fun to watch is the creativity in what they skate and how good they look doing it. That is what makes Jovi so fun to shoot. He has an East Coast style and a knack for interesting spots. This is a perfect example."

"The boneless one is a trick I have always liked doing. It’s a classic trick that’s all about style. It was also the second trick I ever learned (it was much more common in 1990). I told Matt that I wanted to shoot a boneless at a street spot. Matt’s response: “What would Peter Hewitt do?” Apparently, he would do something like this."
