Platform Episode 65 - Scott Quinn (Part 1)

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.
