Sam Larkins is a sponsored skateboarder hailing from Queensland, Australia, and now residing in Sydney. Sam joins me this week for an in-depth conversation about his life so far. Sam delves into his family's basketball background, his decision to pursue skateboarding, the hurdles his family encountered while establishing an indoor skate park, and his relocation to Sydney in pursuit of his skateboarding passion. He also shares insights into his approach to tricks, strategies for dealing with pressure and fear, and much more.
This week's co-host is past guest, Ben Currie, and his canine companion Brutus, who happily gnaws on a bone in the background.
Enjoy,
Shan
Ps. We went skating in the city too. Check out the rough cuts edit I made!
