Matt 'Boyo' Williams Interview

I first started skating by stealing my cousins skateboard when I was living in Wales at the age ov 15...

My first bit ov coverage was in Document  - Switch ollie down a twelve stair when i was 17/18.

Fifty Fifty hooked me up with boards and stuff around 2004 which was a major help.

My history of sponsors start at a shop called Shark Bite which is a surf/sk8 shop in 2003.
Then Fifity Fifty hooked me up and Aeon Footwear in 2004.
I had a few boards from Ali aswell.
Now in 2009 i'm sponsored by Wight Trash boards, Who Clothing, & Nike SB (flow)..

The Skins job happened because they were having a actor in the show who was supposed to be a skateboarder....
but he couldn't sk8 - so the paid us (Tristan & me) to teach him. 
The director said he wants him to be going down handrails within a month.
I said "No chance ! He cant even stand on a board yet".
So they ask me and Tristan to be body doubles for him... we said ovcourse... 300 pound per day... Whoop Whoop !!!

I don't no what or who influenced me really.
I lived in a tiny village in South Wales with just a car park... nothing else to skate and no other skaters... weird !

My favourite old vid must be, ( Shorties ), Fullfill The Dream... its the best !

My favourite new vid is the Bristol Finest vid out real soon !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! yaya
