Interview: Jack Kirk

(Photos - Mapstone, Questions - Burman)



JackKirk. When skateboarding is over with for you (which it almost is) what do you wanna do, and who do you look to for inspiration when thinking of after skating life?

hahah i will probably get a job as a trady or someshit, work during the week, chill then skate with the og pooners on the weekend and get wild

What companys do you want to ride for and why? and what companys would you never ever want to ride for?


feebs - mapstone definatly a ciggy company because there exspensive and think there getting even more exspensive soon, it would be sick getting free ciggys. id never ever wanna ride for billabong or shit like that becasue the shit looks horrible , well most of it does anyway to me i dont think i could do it

Who is in poon? what is poon? and who are each of the pooners most like on the hoon squad?

callum paul, bryce golder, jeremy corea, dane burman, harry clark, sydor, steve gourlay, the brass is pretty much in and me! poon is a poor mans version of the hooners, we try to be them pretending were heaps raw shredding round the city streets and city park backwall. the backwall seshes always get heated. beardo is ment to be jake duncombe and he pulls it off, people think they look the same sometimes ahah . callums ment to be jack fardell but there nothing alike. im suppose to be andrew currie but i cant pull it off. i cant really remeber who everyone else is ment to but.

Whats a kirksie grind? and is it true that one of those decenzo brothers does it better than you?

its a boardy to switch feeble grind. i think the decenzo brothers are stinkin but im sure they do it way better, i hope when they do the trick they call it a kirksy grind that would be funny but never happen

Why did you quit street machine and stussy?

haha your a dick. i quit stussy becasue i didnt really like there cloths so theres no point taking shit off them if i dont were it. and street machine becasue im good mates with the fasttimes crew and all the pooners ride for them so it makes sense but street machine was good they hooked me up good. cheers for that

Why do they call geoff campbell cunt eyes? and why is it so easy to give him shit?

hahahah they call him cunt eyes becasue he has eyes that look like his asian but hes not hes a kiwi so people give him shit for his funny eyes. i dunno why its easy but it seems everyone gives him shit but its in a good way we all sorta like him.sometimes he gets iver being called cunt eyes all day and gets a little pissed off swings his board at your head or some shit

Loose your board or loose your life?
