From: Milwaukee, WI

1.When(age) did you first turn pro and who was it with? I Skated when I was 9 years old and turned pro for illenium skateboards at age 16. My First sponsor was beer city skateboards and phase 2 skate shop at age 14.
2.When I'm skating Cream City and your name comes up I only hear good things from the kids, how does that make you feel, to know you inspire so many young skaters in your hometown? I Skateboard because its something I love to do and its crazy to think I make a living doing something that I love. I'm stoked to hear kids looks up to me and I hope I can inspire them to make there dreams come true and keep pushing themselves on the board to a level they never thought they could be.
 


3.You won hella competitions in the last 2 years, which competition this year do you want to assassinate that you really didn't get a chance to last year? I would be stoked to win Tampa pro again I know I have won it 3 years now and no one has done that yet but it would be great to take home. I think Tampa pro is one of the realest contest out there on a core level of skateboarding and even know I have some main stream sponsors I am proud to have I keep it real on a core level of skateboarding .

4.Alright, your stranded on a island...you have a choice to either be stranded with Micheal Jackson's ghost, the chick from the movie Precious, or Quagmire from Family Guy. Pick one and tell us why? I would have to go with Quagmire from family guy because its one of my favorite shows out there and it would be comedy all day long.
5.LA is a wild place, what is your craziest or dopest experience since you've been there? The wild wild west is a crazy place there's so many spots to skate and the weather is all ways 75 and sunny with all the beautiful women and the night life all ways going off its a story to tell everyday you just have to experience it !!!
6.Ok, the announcer says "1st place winner goes to Greg lutzka" you go up to retrieve your award and Kanye comes out of nowhere. You have to think fast, What do you do? Haha well tell yeah this much kanye wouldn't make it near the announcer stand me and my boy lil jon's security guard big rick does not let much past him ...


Ps: Holding it down in milwaukee with hommie lil jon heres a little video
