San Francisco has some of the best, most interesting street spots in the US, how do you go about finding new spots and challenges in San Francisco?

Most of the spots I find are around my place, on my way to work, or around my work. My eyes are always keying in on my environment for skating possibilities, and my mind is constantly assessing whether or not what I’m seeing could be skated in an interesting and challenging way.

Since I am filming a lot these days I also think about how beautiful and captivating the image will be. Once something stands out to me I start to skate it in my mind in various ways. I keep at it until I find a trick or a line that feels complete or I decide that the obstacle really isn’t worth it.

If I find something good then I am quick to type it into my phone and take a picture of it. After that I will naturally gravitate towards the spot again and again.

Sometimes I will decide against my first trick impression and think of something even more interesting. And again, I might just eventually write the spot off. [...]
