The thing that always bothered me about “Day In The Life” sections is that they always seemed so planned and scripted. Like the camera guy comes in and “wakes the skater up,” they visit a couple cool spots, “accidentally” bump into all their homies, crack a beer and fade to black.
So naturally (stupidly) for this segment, we did the total opposite and came in with almost no preparation. We figured we’d spend a couple of hours and hang out – whatever Quim was feeling that day, we would do it with him, whether that’s grabbing a coffee, listening to music or holding his groceries.
Here’s just a small glimpse of time we spent with Quim walking around Union Square and Astor Place, freestyling with jazz bands in Washington Square Park, before sipping kava tea in the East Village seeing if it would get us high.

Quim is the illest. RIP Mike. I remember seeing Quim back in ’97. Amazing human, full of creativity at all times.
