Thanks: Friends, sponsors, and anyone who I�ve shot with.

I wrote a little something about Jacob just over a year ago for a Check Out that was never used. The reason it didn�t run was not due to lack of talent, but because he injured his shoulder and was unable to shoot a photo�so this is long overdue. After many long months of waking up early and going to physio (physical therapy) for hours on end, he�s back with a whole new outlook on the sport and is ready to take style to another level. Picture Tom Penny and Latrell Spreewell (if you don�t know who they are, you should) adapted to the slopes. Jacob is the master of the no grab (it�s difficult to look smooth and not grab). He�s also great at everything else he puts his mind to. Like a technician, he observes everything and formulates his own way of doing things. Another thing he�s doing now is helping with the design of some of Forum�s bigger boards. He enjoys shredding at Seymour and Whistler, hanging out with the infamous Wildcats, going to house parties, and skating.�Devun Walsh
