Zak Maytum est un p'tit génie du slalom. Il a débuté y a moins d'un an et est déjà pro. Il slalom 6 jours par semaine, de 4 à 8 heures par jours. De plus, Il fabrique lui même ses propres roues et bushings... Pas pire pour un gars de 16 ans!
Extrait de l'entrevue avec Zak Maytum sur Silverfish:
---------------------------------------------------[SF] As far as manufacturers and retailers go who do you think is doing the most to help support slalom racing?[ZK] First, I’d like to say, If I don’t mention your company, it’s not because I don’t like you. It’s probably because I forgot. Now, First, I’d say Sk8kings is really pulling their weight with the Axe Completes and the race DVDs. The inexpensive completes have been a great resource for those looking to get into slalom without breaking the bank. Also, the Race DVDs can teach you quite a bit about technique when your starting out.
Another Company that I think is doing its part is fullbag. They burst on the scene this year with some of the best products and vibes of any company I’ve ever seen. They’ve made really high quality boards accessible to the financially challenged as well as having one of the coolest crews around. Next, all the Wheel companies. Both Seismic and Abec 11 have been super cool about coming out with new slalom wheels that blow minds. Special consideration goes out to Seismic though. Because they are the only ones who make the essential ingredient for slalom: Cones! Finally, PPS and Pavel have shown us what the slalom board of tomorrow looks like. With great, innovative board building technology they’ve paved the way for the best decks the world has ever seen. I can’t wait to see what the future holds for their creations.
---------------------------------------------------C'est l'fun de recevoir un p'tit velours comme ça.
