Mike Conneen Tribute
This was taken on the street course at Surf Expo in January. I said to Rob, “My friend here is going to roll in on the quarter-pipe so I want you to shoot it,” as I was pointing to Mike. Rob gave me the old, “Are you f@:*ing serious?” look. Mike climbed up the ramp on his own, using only his arms, and we handed him his wheelchair. Although it was pretty much the perfect way to lose my job at Expo, I still thought it was the right decision. And it was…Mike rolled away perfectly.
