Secret Skate Spot Session

It’s summer now so most of the snowboard team has put anyway their snowboards at least until they head up to Mt. Hood for summer camps. Here team rider, Nick Visconti shows off just one of the many things he’s really, really good at…street skating. Did you know that Arbor makes street skateboard decks? Sorry, we can’t tell you much about this shoot because it’s a secret skate spot session. Pretty rad though.

Please describe your style of skateboarding: A friend once told me I skate like I’m playing a video game.  Fast, aggressive, and always pushing to get to the next level.

Where is your favorite place to skateboard? New York City

Do you surf? Tried it once and loved it!

Do you snowboard? Tried it once and loved it!

If you could pick four people to go skate with, who would they be and where would you skate?
I’d say my girlfriend Priscilla, my friends Tracy and Gus and my brother Matt.  We’d take a ride on Venice Beach where I got my first longboard.

What is the worst lie you ever told your mom?
Bah, I don’t like this question…  can I pass? Fine, alright, probably when I told her I was eating enough when I was a starving artist back in the day.

What is the worst lie she ever told you? Can’t say I’ve caught her ever lying to me. She’s pretty bad ass.

Mac or PC? Mac all the way.

Would you rather be smart and ugly or dumb and beautiful? Smart and Dumb.

What is your worst habit? Letting negative things bring me down.

Describe your perfect day of skateboarding: Getting up to the sun and finding out I have the day free. Followed by a good fast solo skate to the city to wake me up. Randomly meet Sol and Thes at the Bridge. Racing each other through Battery Park then up to Central Park. Run into more people. Hitting the CP Loop.  Ending at the Bandshell for some freestyle action. My girl slides in after work ready to shred. Even more friends show up. Sun starts to set as we all decide to skate back to Brooklyn for a rooftop BBQ and jam session.
