Adam Walder
Interview / Gallery / Videos / Blog
Adam Walder, a man of a truly astounding number of haircuts.
Adam,
rather interestingly, possesses a baffling ability to consistently
break himself whilst performing handplants. As you can only imagine,
Adam isn't incredibly keen on this, so were you to frequent a few
sessions of skatage in his company, chances are you wouldn't witness
him doing one. Indeed one could go so far as to say that in all
probability, you'd quite probably have a much greater chance of
winning the lottery than seeing Mr Walder attempt another handplant.
Adam has been streetboarding since 1973, a true professional
in every
sense. If it weren't for his modesty and sense of sportsmanship, he,
himself would be world streetboarding champion. In fact, it has been
known, on multiple occasions, for Mr Walder to bow out of
competitions. This is, of course, for the greater good of the sport.
Since Adam, in the past, has discovered other riders simply give up
boarding altogether, from constantly living in the shadow of his
awesome ability. Instead Adam now judges competitions based on how
well riders can imitate his style and skill.
Of course, Adam still skates as much as he can. It is
however,
difficult with the amount of female attention he attracts. This is
also partly because of his prolific wealth, which Mr Walder earnt by
floating his multi-million dollar company 'Flipside' on the stock
market. Adam prefers to play this down somewhat, which hints at the
kind, generous and down to earth nature of this man. His charity work
is world renowned, although Adam of course, would never boast about
this. No, Adam truly is one of a kind. A king amongst men.
