Best skating memory? Too many to list! Every time I go away on trips so much amazing stuff happens and so much fun is had! My last two trips to India in the last year have probably been my favourite.

Worst skating memory? Snapping my collar bone and the rehabilitation from the operation.

Best Result: “Rumble In The Jungle” comp, Goa, India. This was the first ever skateboard comp in India so it was quite special to everyone involved regardless of the result.

Favourite board? Current set up? My favourite board ever was my first decent skateboard. It was a Schmitt Stix Andy Howell deck (10” wide!) with the pyramid eye graphic, Independent Trucks, Powell Rails, Powell Swiss Bearings and Santa Cruz Bullet 66 wheels. This was around 1988/99.

Now my set up consists of an “A Third Foot” deck, 8” wide – best boards ever and made right here in England by people that care! Independent trucks 8”, 54mm Death wheels and Powell Swiss speed bearings.

Favourite Sunglasses: Nu708 Classic Aviators.

Full name and What you like to be known as: Garry Woodward (roughly translated is “Spearman, Forest guardian”…Powerful!)

Tea or Coffee? Green Tea - full of anti-oxidants
