You Interview Reynolds, Round 2
Photo by Rob Brink

It's time for number 21 in our never-ending series of Blab Interviews conducted by you. This month, we're going to hit up Emerica pro Andrew Reynolds for the second time. Just ask a nice, short question right here in this post and I'll choose a few of the best and give Reynolds a call. Read his Bio and the first Andrew Blab so you don't ask anything that has already been answered there. The interview will close this coming Friday, September 19, 2008.

  112. I've skated a few of the 8.19x32.25 Baker shape, which seems to be the largest Baker size thats sold, but from seeing the boards you skate in person I can tell you've got a much larger board - 8 1/4 to 8 1/2. What's up with getting that shape available to the big kids out there that are looking for a bigger shape and wanna support Baker...the 8.19 x32.25 egg comes in too small for some of us. I'd like to be able to get a shape like the beast I've seen you and Ellington skating.
