EVAN SMITH
SKATEBOARDER / MUSICIAN
Orlando Florida’s Evan Smith is making a name for himself by taking the road less traveled. While most aspiring skaters spend half their time trying to figure out how to live the California dream, Smith spends his getting busy wherever he’s at. Both on board and in life, Evan has found creative routes to doing things his own way. Currently in Pittsburgh, skating untapped wells of urban spots, he’s also helping his uncle run a music venue. This unorthodox approach transfers to Evan’s skating as well where you’ll catch him pulling out tricks others might not think of, and approaching classic spots with a fresh set of eyes.
