Crusty By Nature: The Wes Kremer Thrasher Interview

Below is Wes Kremer's feature interview from the September 2014 issue of Thrasher, which was published around the time that his Crusty By Nature video part was released. Five months later, he was named Skater Of The Year in the February 2015 issue. Words by Alex Horn and photos by Mike Blabac, Jake Darwen, Michael Burnett and Gaston Francisco. Wes is my favorite skater of all-time and I am stoked to finally get this interview up on my site.








Pro Spotlight: Wes Kremer

Wes Kremer's Pro Spotlight interview from the June 2013 issue of Transworld. Words by Mike Fitzgerald and photos by Mike Blabac. I also included Wes's darkslide cover and a two-page DC ad from the same issue (both shot by Blabac). 

I was introduced to Wes when I saw his part in Not Another Transworld Video and was immediately a fan, so seeing that he got a Pro Spotlight interview two years later was pretty exciting. A little over a year later, he was named Thrasher's 2014 SOTY.

Torey Pudwill - November 2009 interview

Torey's November 2009 Skateboarder interview, as well as the ads he appeared in within the same issue. Words by Christian Senrud and photos & intro by Giovanni Reda. It's odd to think that this is from 15 years ago... 6 years before the interview, he appeared in the Who's Hot section.
