About Jedi

photo by George DeLoache

So, yes, my name really is Jedi. I'm not making it up. My mom wanted my middle name to be Knight, but my dad nixed it. Could have been a cool name, huh - Jedi Knight.

I love skateboarding, so it is very lucky that I live in Southern California. It's also lucky that because I live in SoCal, I can get jobs skateboarding on tv, music vids and movies. I think my favorite gig so far was on the American Idol promo. They had great food, plus I had my own trailer. Nice.

I skate all over Southern California. It's great to have so many parks and spots. But like all skateboarders I am always searching out someplace new to skate. Some new spot, some new challenge.

I also shoot and edit video. I also shoot photos. I like it. It's cool. You can check out my vids on my site or on my YouTube account.

I spend a lot of my summer months instructing at Woodward West Extreme Sports Camp. If you've never been there, check it out for sure.
