SOME KINDA LIFE: NIMA JALALI /
I just threw Nima’s old part from Neoproto’s Some Kinda Life onto Youtube. I always liked this one.
SKATEBOARD.COM.AU SHANE O'NEIL INTERVIEW /
With all the talk I thought it would be cool to get Shane’s take on things. I guess I also wanted to share in his new internets glory. Thanks to Shane and thanks to Gourlay for the photo (switch heel) to go along with the words.
———————————————————-
Q. I watched your video on youtube, I’m sorry, it was there and I just pressed play. I paypalled you personally $3, is that ok?
HAHA I just got the pay pal thing thanks dude! haha Nah I dont mind, would be tight if people waited like a week maybe, but either way its all good.
Q. Which 3 people would you pay $3 for a video part?
eric koston, paul rodriguez, chima ferguson, nathan jackson, jeremy corea, bryce golder, luke croker, grant taylor, emilio d’angelo haha, chris middlebrook ahahah and probably almost every other pro skateboarder and any of my friends.
Q. Your nickname is pretty cool. Do you think a nickname is important to become pro? Is there any Australian skater who you think could benefit from a nickname and if so, got any suggestions?
Nah i dont think its important. Nathan jackson is the chisler he got chisled by uncle gorby. He’s an amazing person and skater so a nickname doesnt matter.
Q. Is it true you pashed some famous chick. I’d never heard of her but I’m told super famous sprouter.
Ha, yeah friends claim it was but i dont exactly know! Be nice to girls, that usually works haha.
Q. I read a rumour that you never smile. Are you grumpy? If you have smiled before, what was it that turned that frown upside down?
HAHA I’m happy and smile all the time! Thats a lame ass rumour.
Q, You’re a fully fledged pro now, but do you miss Werribee? Do you miss the good old days of missions in Flaz’s van with Reesy, Anton and Josh?
Nah I dont miss that place I was only there from when i was 9 until I was 14, I lived in glenroy all my life up until that. I defiently miss hanging out with all those guys though. I see them from time to time and they are always awesome dudes!!
Q. Which of the Wezza crew is going to make it big next?
I have no idea. Steve McInnes and Little Chris they are the only ones I know from there hahah. They are both cool
Q. According to Slap forums, which are never wrong, Steve Berra gets 137% of all video profits which are to be used to build a giant golden pyramid. Could the slap forums be wrong?
Hahaha for what I know I am getting most if not all of the money. I dont care either way, slap’s forums are crazy but I just dont care about any of that shit. I just go skate.
Q. I don’t know much about skate mental except they put out a skate mental inflatable dinghy a year or so ago. What made you want to ride for them?
I just liked the boards so I hit up Brad Staba, got on and
it’s going good now they make amazing product.
Q. When will we see more footage of you? Will it be on the internet or on a dvd we can watch on the couch in our dressing gowns?
I actually have alot more coming out very soon. Im filming for a fourstar commercial at the moment and gettting a few tricks in the new transworld video.
