Hello my name is Cedric. I enjoy skateboarding I’ve been skating now on and off for about 10 years now. my approach to skateboarding was through documentaries and skate videos. That pushed me into art and fingerboarding. I own and operate my own small fingerboarding company as well as receive free boards from my sponsor Emanant FingerSkate. I use fingerboarding and my company as a way to make affordable and easily accessible product for kids. Helping the youth is also something that I enjoy. I have a younger brother and when I teach him something new or even when he teaches me something new its always a good experience and that’s what I hope to contribute as an instructor is to bring good experiences to kids that are trying something new. Not just skateboarding.

I have been skateboarding since 1976.  I sometimes spend 40 hours a week in skateparks. I believe in skateboarding.  I teach a type of skateboarding that is fun.  I emphasize fast skating, carving bowls, and safety.   I have lesson plans for skaters at all levels. Most beginners have two equipment issues.  The first is their shoes.  You should be wearing tight fitting shoes that have a thin soul.  Converse brand “Chuck Taylor” low tops are a perfect shoe. Any generic version of this shoe is usually good.  The second issue is hardness of the bushings in your trucks. I recommend buying Bones Brand bushings, Get the softest version. They are color coded with a blue ring. Call ahead to make sure the shop has them. Most shops do not carry them. The shops will try to sell you on something else, Do not buy anything else. Shop EVO in Seattle. They had them last week.  I will help you navigate the skateboarding world.          You are the future of skateboarding and I will treat you as such. |

He believes skateboarding is a lifelong and cultural experience. From early on it’s always been something he was good at. It’s not just something to impress your friends with, skating is a great way to express yourself. He love to pass on knowledge. From basics like  cruising and ollie’s. And dropping in on half-pipes. All the way to advanced tricks like caballerial flips. |
