Joey Christoffers















photo by erik mangal.

Joey Christoffers is an amazing skateboarder. He kind of reminds me of a football player the way he just charges things and go full speed at everything. He'll just put his ipod on and just run at something. Joey got hurt pretty bad today trying to fs smith the landsdale catholic rail. The rail is pretty long with no ride up. its really not a good rail at all. He just charged it and slid the whole thing first try. The next try he came up short and fell so hard on his back and his head hit the ground really bad. He was knocked out for a little bit. He is in the hospital now. He has a cracked skull, internal bleeding in his head, and blurred vision in his left eye. My best wishes go out to him right now. Get better soon man.

This photo was taken right after he fell. After he gained conciousness the first thing he said was "another day" haha. He still wanted to try the rail after that. He even wanted to go to another spot. Joey is a beast. Heres joey skatin on the longboard. Joey has been landing a lot of great stuff lately and he kills it on the longboard haha. Its seriously ridiculous.
