I mean obviously I doubt he has many average days. But how much actual boring human activity does he do?! ---

A friend told me a funny story about going out to get food with the Flip team and Penny, but it’s not my story to tell. I’d say he has been very looked out for over the years and hasn’t had to worry about most normal every day things, like us mere mortals, haha. He just seems to pop up in a different place every other day, London, Paris, Argentina, Brazil, Australia. He can’t have too many worries. ---

Stoked on this thread. Earlier comment regarding whether if he released the same parts today, whether he’d still get the limelight was interesting. Obviously skateboarding has evolved massively since mid 90’s but honestly, if you saw the section below come out now, even with today’s context - do we not think people would be hyped on it? With him it was never really about what he was doing, it was the manner in which it was done. Case in point - the High 5 section below. ![](https://img.youtube.com/vi/nO7xSRth-yI/maxresdefault.jpg)https://www.youtube.com/embed/nO7xSRth-yI?feature=oembed&wmode=opaque ---

That said - I think I agree with the 9 Club comments above. I don’t think it would actually be any good - Penny stories are better coming from other people I think. ---

just to take it back to 97 when he was in london - and the mind melting session on this sketchy ramp at a snowboard show in battersea park. blessed to have witnessed this and gave me the opportunity to take three of the best photos in my archive and smoke a joint with him. this first one is almost perfect frozen moment in time especially with the boots - except the board is in the wrong place…, i have since wondered if it was maybe an alley oop fs flip or halfway through a sw fs flip revert and that explains the placement, but even if it was a bail (honestly cant remember) i still love it ![image](https://uksf-media.lon1.cdn.digitaloceanspaces.com/original/1X/c8df18e075ab1d560669e5406cb0aa9306e0ae2c.jpeg) this was a head height backside flip ![image](https://uksf-media.lon1.cdn.digitaloceanspaces.com/original/1X/419601a33eac7616c85b0dc0551aa7f99e92fe33.jpeg) this was a backside ollie ![image](https://uksf-media.lon1.cdn.digitaloceanspaces.com/original/1X/3249c0dd74b8b6ee5416b046aaf64e1d05359d08.jpeg) ---

Speaking of which, surely you’d have a good amount of stories or experience with him. Guessing probably not a huge amount for public sharing though. ---
