Bio

Full Name: Colin James Findlater

 

D.O.B: August 20, 1991

 

Hometown: London, Ontario

 

Currently Resides: Still in London

 

Best thing about London?
Some of the spots are pretty legit but when you get bored of them, it’s close enough to venture to other cities like Kitchener, Guelph, Toronto and places like that.

 

How sweet are the Ontario winters?
The worst! You end up spending hundreds on going to indoor parks (which almost ended up in countless fights with bikers which are also allowed in the park.) It’s such a huge amount of time to go without filming too if you don’t go somewhere warm. But on the plus side, I end up learning a good amount of tricks at the indoor park.

 

What is your favorite reality T.V. Show?
Life  of Ryan.. No joke. Me and my homie Luke never miss it!

 

What about your favorite reality T.V. Show that you’ve been on?
HA! There has only been the one. It was actually one of the funnest things ever though. Thanks for the opportunity!

 

Best part of being a reality T.V. Show star?
I think Owen Woytowich said this but I could be wrong. Signing autographs for the haters, friends and sisters via facebook.

 

What do you do other than skateboard?
Not a whole lot. Party, chill with the girl, chill with the homies. Watch new vids and check blogspots and watch life of ryan of course! Sometimes I’m graced by the presence of Ryan Blaxall on msn sending me links of old footage that turns out to be golf videos.  Some good shooting though, I must say.

 

Why do you have so much energy?
It could have something to do with my diet consisting of cereal (mostly rice crispies) and diet Pepsi. That is literally 90% of my diet right there. Actually, I’m more shy around someone until Im around them more and then I just get loose because it’s more fun than just being calm and mellow. Gets out of control sometimes, though.

 

Tell me about your toque swagger.
I watch videos and I see people wearing toques and I think it looks sick. So then I try to rock one and it doesn’t turn out as good but I still try. Even in the summer I wear a toque sometimes. If it’s too warm for a toque, I’ll rock a DVS new era or a sesame street hat(I have two. Theyre tight!)

 

What’s the best part about skating for companies through Supra Dist?
The people that you deal with and help you out like Dane, Ryan, Sean to name a few. And like everyone else says; awesome companies and awesome product!

 

Favorite skate that rides for Supra Dist?
Paul Liliani would be one cuz the footage and photos I see of him are pretty insane.

 

Stance: Goofy

 

Favorite trick?
Feeling the front crooks and BS nose blunts lately.

 

Least favorite trick?
Regular fs big spins and nollie fs flips. I cannot get them proper. Someone give me a trick tip!

 

Watch out for:

My homie Jordan Guzyk’s video, “Kbye” that I’m in with a bunch of buds like Mike Mains, Byron Ready, Dave Hnatiuk, Tim Bobnis and more. Not till fall 2010 though.
