We’re kicking off our 30 Year Anniversary video interviews with number 30 on our list of Most Influential Skaters Of All Time: Mr. Paul Rodriguez. Paul has spent the last decade changing what is possible on a skateboard. As a result, he became the first skateboarder ever to get a signature shoe from Nike, has attracted a league of fervent fans, joined Street League in its infancy, and became one of the better-known young athletes on the planet. Hear his take on it all.
