Taking the Journey with Jordan Hoffart


MaleStandard.com has posted up an interesting interview with Powell, Bones and Adio footwear Pro Jordan Hoffart. Here's an excerpt,

"How has skateboarding evolved since you first came on the scene?
Well, I got engulfed by skateboarding in 1995, so I watched and looked up to guys like Jason Lee, Tony Hawk, Geoff Rowley and whoever else was in the Airwalk promo video at that time.
A lot has definitely changed. The boundaries have been pushed way beyond anyone’s wildest dreams, the spots are much bigger and scarier, and it’s much harder to impress the viewer, not just in street skating but also vert and now mega ramp alike. Seeing/doing some of the tricks that go down now would be unimaginable back then, but that is just natural progression, like any other professional field really. But as much as it’s progressed, a lot of characteristics have stayed the same......... "

If you have the time, head over to MaleStandard.com and read up the whole interview to get your brain juices working!
