new jack: nick trapasso words by mike muzenrider

Recently I read an article in one of my favorite magazines, the skateboarder mag. It was about a now pro skateboarder named Nick Trapasso, also one of my favorites. Not that this article could be any cooler but it was written by a guy named Mike Munzenrider who is from minnesota who I know from the skatepark and he is know written articles for a big time magazine. Anyway, Munzy starts by asking questions like where Nick grew up and how he got in the skate scene. Nick tells him about how he grew up in Arizona and his brother got him into skateboarding. The articles goes on to talk about Nick's vacation in China and how he got on the front page of a Chinese newspaper while he was there. Nick answer a few more questions after this and offers words of advice for kids to live by. I liked this piece cause it was cool to see one of my favorite pros be interviewed by a local I know.
