Dan Holm goes big at Rye Airfield.

17 year old Dan Holm of Hudson N.H. is a frequent visitor to Rye Airfield, in Rye N.H. After seeing him going huge over the Monster box several times, I couldn't wait to take a few photos and ask a few questions. 

How long have you been riding?  I have been riding scooters for 10 years.

What got you into scootering?   Before I got my first scooter, one of my friends let me ride his for a few minutes. After that I begged my parents to by me a scooter, and they gave me one for my seventh birthday.That night I rode until my parents forced me to come inside: I was hooked.

What was your first scooter? My first scooter was a green razor MS-130A.  It was a typical Razor scooter that everyone had.

Current ride? My current scooter is very different from my first scooter. I have a one piece Phoenix Pro Scooters deck, 20" wide bars from  Inward Scooters, and a threadless compression system similar to those used on bikes.

Do you have a favorite place to ride?  Rye is definately my favorite place to ride. As for local parks, I like the ones in Pelham and Londonderry.

Any influences?  My riding is not really influenced by other riders. I try to have my own style and ride for fun. Some of my favorite riders are Brandon Kilbury, Josh Kish, Ryan Upchurch, and Stan Smirnoff.

Thanks Dan.
