So I totally dig this photo… Can’t say I know Josh although I skated/photographed at CCCC and OC Maryland on 2 occasions that he was there. So I figured If I was going to post something of him maybe ask someone else to say something about him.

….so I asked Rob Mertz and he said…I quote

Hey Jason.

Josh is a big dude. He’d throw up a tucknee invert and his knees would be higher than my head!

Morris Wainwright also threw in….
