Adam Rouse in 2009 really broke onto the scene. He mixes flat, tech, and park riding really well. In what seems like all of his videos there are always a few parts you need to rewind and watch again just to understand what he just did. He is truly an up and comer in the sport and in Australia. I caught up with Adam recently to ask him the 4 W's.
Who
Who in our sport or any sport inspires you to ride the way you do?
Adam: Well I'd have to say Matt Mckeen, James Bull and Brandon Kilbury. Matt Mckeen for his skateboarding and just insane type of street riding, and originality in all kinds of street riding. James Bull for his chilled attitide yet will unleash the hammers whenever he rides, wherever he rides. And Brandon Kilbury For just going big, being crazily dialed at the craziest of tricks, and insanely clean style.
What
What was the hardest trick for you to land so far in scootering?
Adam: There has been a lot of hard ones, but my most one would have to be quint whip a spine. It took me a lot of tries to land it, especially on a 40 degree celcious summers day in the sun haha!
Where
Where is your favorite place to ride?
Adam: hmm, probably any type of street. I love just riding around all day looking for stuff and finally finding a perfect spot to ride at and have fun for a long time at that spot.
Why
Why do you continue to ride scooters today?
Adam: I just ride to have fun these days, and to meet new people and gain some friends, it great meeting a new person and riding with them at new places!
Anyway thanks for the interview!
