Interview + Photos by David Johns

I’ve had the pleasure of shooting Frank Irven skate during this edit and I have seen him push himself more and more every day. Frank’s skating rides a line between dangerous and enjoyable to watch and it’s always an edge of your seat thriller. His resilience, skill and commitment to skating has been long overdue for some recognition and I am personally excited to see him receive the exposure he deserves, which is why I wish to interview the man. – David Johns.
