Mikey Burton
Age: 25 Home: North Hollywood, California Sponsors: The Hundreds, Markisa Accessories, Nike SB, Manik Skateboards, Goods Skateshop Favorite city: Seattle with the homies! Your deepest fear: Injuries! Best skate video you’ve seen recently: Hallelujah. Best street skater of the past year: Torey Pudwell. Best tranny skater of the past year: Bob Burnquist. Best rookie pro: Tyler Bledsoe. He’s pro now right? Plans for the summer: Stack clips son! Thing you would do if the world was ending: Party Like it was 1999—haha! Waste of cash: Booze. Next meal: Carne Asada burrito!
I first met Mikey Burton when he came to live in Sacramento for the summer. We loved giving him a hard time. One time we told everyone in town that he was the skater “Death Wish” and it bummed him out so bad. Another time I was mixing bondo with gloves on and greeted him with a handful of a bondo handshake. No matter how bummed Mikey got though, he was always killing it. I got to witness one of the gnarliest tricks I’ve ever seen done, which we used in Hallelujah (ollie over barrier to flat). He went to a spot that tons have been to and shut it down (landing it twice). That was the one day I couldn’t give Mikey a hard time.—Chris Ray Song: Bitter Sweet - Dirty Laundry

“For the past few years, I”ve been running around the globe so much that I’ve missed out on the institution that is the East Coast backyard bbq. It’s in my blood. So simple and yet so fun. It’s been a daily occurrence on this leg of the trip. Camping out with all the bros at Freddy’s grandma’s house, spending nights by the fire, reflecting on the waxing and waning of the moon, and spots searching around in-between demos and signings. Morale is high.”—Keed Reed

Last night was the launch party for the 15 Yearés Of Photoés book by Atiba Jefferson at Space 15TWENTY in Hollywood. Being a photographer myself, I really look up to Atiba, because his photographs are not only amazing, but a majority of them are iconic photographs that have been embedded in my brain. The book is filled with all of them and then some, many which are a part of TransWorld SKATEboarding history. Everybody who wasn’t out of town made it out in support of 15 Yearés Of Photoés, and had a great time. The book is out in bookstores and skateshops now, you know you’ve been waiting 15 Yearés to get it!
