Future's bright, So I have to wear shades.

So.. It seems i left someone out of my top favorites of all time.

That someone is Chima Ferguson

I've known about Chima since I started skating (I stalked his team page on the volcom site). He was one of my first favorites because of his Let's Live part.

I thought he also had the coolest sponsors: Vans, Volcom, Real.

I mean those are some cool brands! Chima really blew up in the last year. He's freakin' pro now!

When I saw his cover on thrasher, I was like "dude! are you kidding?! Why isn't he pro?!"

I feel stupid asking that question cause every person asks why someone who's AM isn't pro already. I like AM's way better anyway. But, I digress.

When I first looked him up I remember thinking, "Why does this dude wear shades all the time?" It'd always be some kind of Ray Ban type of sunglasses.

It was like every pic I saw was him in sunglasses. I thought he was like the coolest guy ever.

Here's a taste of his awesomeness. This is when he got on Real.

I don't know why but I like posting skaters being their selves as opposed to a real video part. It's way more entertaining to watch.

Also check out his Killself part. Filmed it when he was FIFTEEN!

And yes, Chima influences my skating.
