Philip Moore has had an eventful couple of years. He moved from Alabama to California, met someone and got married, and now they live together with their dog in the Bay Area. He also received a pro model wheel from Sic Urethane and filmed a promo for it on the streets of Amsterdam during his travels across Europe. Then there’s the small matter of winning the USA’s biggest competition – Blading Cup – back in November. Many people dream of living the true skater lifestyle – travelling the world, seeing different places, meeting new people, stacking clips and making an impression on the competition circuit – but few American bladers in recent years have embraced it and executed it as organically as Moore has. - David McNamera for Wheel Scene
