LA Times // Preston

Preston Pollard is a skater who grew up in Anchorage, Alaska. After being in the gutter and falling into a dark place, he found skateboarding and that helped him put a new perspective on his life. He learned to ride a skateboard on ice and temperatures below -10 degrees Fahrenheit. He moved to LA for the sunshine and to further his skating. He now works with inner city kids, inspiring them to do good and spread the love of skating.
