Starr Adams is a way cool kid that’s only been skating for about a year and a half now. He’s a Cerrillos New Mexico local but looks like a San Diego surfer kid with long hair and freckles. He’s a Scorpio and looks up to people like: Danny Way, Tony Hawk, Tony Alva, Bob Burnquist and his sk8 mom Josie. Because of his hard core family support this kid gets to ride killer terrain on a regular basis and his bag of tricks is growing quickly. Starr does killer front and back side air, hand plants, backside ollies, judo airs and likes the feel of 50/50 grinds. He studies Aikido and is into skate school, Donoven, sushi, big walls like Encinitas, CA YMCA and his 12 ft back yard half pipe ramp. Mr. Adams could survive through anything as long as he has his skateboard, wood and tools. They call him “The Man” cuz he skates way ahead of his time on a man’s board (no pops for Starr). Maybe when Starr becomes famous he’ll build a sick sk8 park in Jamaica with no fast food restaurants in sight. Starr rips on a 9”x33”. Pool King polymer deck with Tracker SixTracks and Pool King Wheels filled with Pleasure Tools.
