Daniel Kim has become the wild one of 2016. Quartersnacks named him Skater of the Year for 2016 thanks to his part in the instant classic Spirit Quest and probably also because he kept people laughing and shaking their heads with his Stingwater project. What is it exactly? No idea still, but we love it. Almost tempted to buy a $300 bottle of groewater because it, “stings the face.”

His interview covers many highlights including emptying your brain, skating to his mom’s music, putting Stevie Williams on blast (but not really), and much more.

 

I feel like you’ve been reborn as some sort of a motivational guru. What is your outlook on life? What are some words of wisdom that you can impart upon the readers?

Empty your mind. When people are feeling stuck, sick of the same old grind every day at work, you’ve got to empty your mind and realize that you don’t have to be that person. You can recreate yourself. That’s what I mean by empty your mind. You can keep growing. When you’re stuck like that, you’ll never grow.
