We recently interviewed Dave Bachinsky since his new thrasher part just came out. Here’s what we got
So you just recently put out a part on thrasher, how long did it take to film and was it thrasher who came up with the idea?
My good friends were flying over to Chengdu, China for a contest & I wanted to tag along with them. I talked to my good friend Rich about doing a extended trip off the contest to film some in the streets. We stayed 6 extra days and started stacking up clips and that’s how the part all came about.
What’s your favourite spot in the world?
It’s a mile hike up in Maine with a natural quarter pipe made from a water fall. It’s the best mission with the friends during the summertime.
When did you start skating?
My uncles gave me a skateboard when I was 2 years old. The local skateparks opened up in Lowell, Massachusetts when I was 13 and that’s when I really started to skate everyday.
Who originally got you into skateboarding?
My family & friends 💙🙌🏼
Are you working on any projects recently?
I’m working on a couple different video pieces but I’m excited to be filming a ditch & water dam segment. Growing up in Massachusetts there was no ditches to skate. Being out in California they run throughout the whole state and the aqueduct systems get unique. This last months adventures with crew have been epic!
