William starts: “I’ve seen driven people but not people with your kind of drive. When we were filmingyou were getting up at four in the morning to jump down some stairs at Madison Square Garden. You were calling me up to get out and go skate. I find your dedication comparable to that of Michael Jordan. Tell me, what’s your motivation?”
In conversation Tyshawn seems bashful about his fame, a little blunt about it all. He’s uninterested in examining it, or maybe just shy. It also belies his deep confidence in his ability. “No,” Tyshawn says. “If I feel satisfied I’m gonna slide. I try to forget I even won that.” He knows he’s good, he knows what he’s worth, he knows what he still needs to do.Tyshawn first appeared, just a scrawny little kid, in, alongside Jason Dill, a legendary Supreme skater. In the 50-second long clip, which William also directed, Jason and Tyshawn hang out with some stereotypical NYC street characters . You can already see Tyshawn’s God-given talent as he ollies down the NYC Courthouse drop.
