BroFile #6: Jayden Edmonds

Jay­den Edmonds » Ollie over the tabletop

I was on the scout for a young rip­per to shoot for November’s Grom of the Month, so headed down to Wash­ing­ton. Chill­ing over in the cor­ner I spot­ted Jay­den Edmonds, recalled a few good lines and tricks up his sleeve from our Skate Jams, and hit him up for a shoot.

There was no wait­ing, straight on the board and huck­ing ollies down the bank to the flat in a mat­ter of sec­onds. His energy and enthu­si­asm for skat­ing is huge (or he’s just had too much energy drink), if he didn’t land some­thing, or I missed the split sec­ond for get­ting the right shot, he was back drop­ping in before I could get my old hag­gard self back into position.
