Thanks again to Rick for giving me so much with each answer, editing this piece was seriously painful as I honestly didn't want to have to cut a single word out.

Chrome Ball will return on Monday, March 21st.

Thanks everyone.

Always stoked on Rick I ever since his first New Deal promo. Always super good, original and stylish.

A classy act, delivered by Rick I.
Rare enough to be noted. Such an inspiration then, and again, after this interview!

Another sick interview! Every time u get so much more interesting stuff out of the skater than any magazine does. Rick I always been a favourite since the New Deal promo and have been trying to get my hands on a copy of the Kold Blue tune since 1281 so if anyone out there has one??!

This is a great interview. Rick tells some cool stories.

Skateboarding Is has been posting Underworld Element ad all week so this was perfect timing.

Rick is pure style!

I always wondered why he suddenly disappeared. Now I know a little bit more.

Thanks Chops!

Though I thought it was weird and impolite that you made him tell so many stories about other legends. I wanted to hear more about Ibaseta.

yeah keith, a long time. at one point, Rick was supposed to be CBI Interview #2.

Anibal, there are already Cream and Profile posts up.
