Evan Hernandez What’s The Story? Interview

Evan Hernandez Triple Set Kickflip

This interview was taken form the May issue of The Skateboard Mag, text by Rob Brink, photo by Shad Lambert.
After his Day In The Life video, which was posted on the DGK blog a lot of people started to hate on him and I understand why but the guy must have a pretty hard time getting ditched by all his friends and sponsors, and there’s no denying that he kills it on a skateboard…

“Did you feel guilty?” I asked.
“Nah! I was bad then. I was from Long Beach. I was looking at Evan like, ‘You’re making money! I don’t got none, so fuck it, I’ll sell you this watch if you’ll believe it’”.
“What did he say when he found out it was fake?” I asked.

“He was like ‘That’s fucked up, man!’ He wasn’t even mad or anything.” Terry exclaimed, laughing the whole way through.

Evan Hernandez isn’t the easiest guy to read. He probably prefers it that way. After all, a total stranger is hitting him up for personal info to be run in a magazine article after he’s already had his fair share of bad interviews and people talking shit. But hearing Terry say Evan wasn’t even mad about the watch incident is revealing enough that despite word of mouth, his share of hard times, and a long while off the skate scene, Evan is a solid and good-hearted dude.

“He got me into skating,” says TK, “I used to see him at school. He used to skate in front of the school every day after class with all the other little white kids. He got me a board and shoes and all that shit. Then he’d be like ‘Meet me at Cherry Park.’”

Seems Evan did a lot for his friends, even as a young kid. What did he get in return? Well, they ditched him.
“Evan was one of those people… you knowhow you always hated on the kid who was so good?” says Kennedy. “He was always so good that we didn’t want to take him to the spots. We’d be like, ‘Man, don’t bring Evan!’ ’cause he would go to the spot and do all the tricks before anyone would do them.”

“I was at Huntington and saw Andrew [Reynolds] pull up in his red Civic,” says Evan. “I was just skating and watched him do some tricks. Then he came and sat next to me and the first thing he told me was ‘That was a proper switch flip.’ He was always my favorite skater, so I was like ‘What the fuck?’
