Platform Episode 65 - Scott Quinn (Part 1)
Manage episode 356675297 series 2859749
This episode of Platform podcast feels extra special because it features my favourite Scottish skater of all time, and someone I have spent a lot of time with over the years, Scott Quinn. He talks about being put on Razors through Chaz Sands, going to America for the first time, getting a pro skate and the pressure of filming a promo for it, living at Unit 23 Skatepark for various years and moving to Copenhagen and filming for both of David Sizemore's projects. He also discusses working in the industry, first as the team manager for Razors, then handling UK distribution for Sunshine Distribution, before later joining Skatepro and then starting his own skate shop called 8 Set. Needless to say, we covered a lot of topics!
Quinny's wifi cut out, then mine died just after the two-hour mark, so we are hoping to record a part two to the podcast next week, where we will discuss the Cayenne Project videos, his Elite Series section and why he chose to stop riding for Razors.
