In case you don’t know, Mike Carroll & Rick Howard are 2 of the most respected, most influential, most inspirational and most stylized skateboarders in our world today. There will never ever be another Mike Carroll & Rick Howard, as far as I’m concerned.
We are blessed to have these 2 skateboarders skateboarding in our era.
They are most definitely your favorite skateboarders’ favorite skateboarder! No doubt.
I had the chance to meet Mike for the first time back in 2000, fast forward 9 years later, he came to Hong Kong for the second time along with his partner in crime, Mr Rick Howard. I met Rick last year in Shen Zhen when he was filming for Fully Flared (the most successful skateboarding video). I’m seriously grateful that I can meet these 2 living legends in person (still killin it on their skateboards) and one important thing for sure, both Rick & Mike are 2 of the most real genuine cats alive, true skateboarders, I truly respect that. So good to see them both out here in Hong Kong.
We had a chance to walk around Mong Kok and checked out some shit.
Mike & Rick, next time you come back to HK, the skate session is on! ONE LOVE.
PS: Also, they’re both responsible for GIRL / CHOCOLATE / LAKAI / FOUR STAR / ROYAL / RUBY’S / CRAILTAP (all the ill shit)
Mike is psyched on his Black Stump Australian beer.
More accessories?
NEW Lakai model PICO (this one is the special collaboration with Spike Jonze).
