ICHAT interview with Reed Hansen
|
|

|
Reed. When you were 4 years old what did you want to be for halloween? |
|
|
|
I didnt know what halloween was or how to spell it. I was a very sheltered child |
|
|
|
ok. lets try this again with somewhat real answers |
|
|
|
that was 100%real |
|
|
|
ha. okay |
|
If you could ask a genie (sp) one question what would it be? |
|
|
|
So….where you from? |
|
|
|
hmmm. haha. pretty good answer. I would have asked her, assuming its a girl what are the next winning lotto numbers |
|
interesting |
|
Do you know the capitol of new mexico? |
|
|
|
albaquerky |
|
|
|
i know how to say it but not spell it |
|
|
|
I hunt there |
|
|
|
your good |
|
you would say that |
|
i pray there |
|
moving on |
|
|
|
mk… |
|
|
|
awkward… |
|
|
|
If a tree falls down in a forrest will bears get mad? |
|
|
|
in some cases bears eat bugs(grubbs) and grubbs live in old rotten fallen down trees. So no |
|
|
|
valid point |
|
we got a thinker |
|
Reed. Do you currently have a girlfriend? |
|
|
|
I have friends that are girls and i have a wife that lives in Texas. |
|
|
|
She comlpetes me. Love you hunnietwinkles |
|
|
|
I catch your drift. Reason I ask is because at PWT events or call them what you want you seem to have a pack of snow bunnies following you around. And I’m not talking about Matt Manzari. Why do you think they flock to you? |
|
|
|
WELL BOB, Some say its my tall slender figure, some say its the hair, some say its the confidence, but i say its because i follow Nick Taylor around |
|
|
|
||
|
|
he is prettier than any girl i know |
|
|
|
hmmm |
|
|
|
you can HMMM all you want but you know itsw true |
|
||
|
O and for the record its Danny, not Bob |

|

|
|
|
Sorry Danny |
|
|
|

|
|
|

|
|
|
you would KNow |
|
|
|
Im not a very serious kinda guy….wait….but anyways. I dont want this interview getting too serious so I will just ask you this one question. You read the article in the latest Alliance about wakeskating and who was the best in 07. Your thoughts? |
|
|
|
I think the best in 07 was somebody who did well in contests, was inovative with his riding, pumped out a good section, got good coverage, and rocked the world |
|
|
|
||
|
|
I personally dont think that Nick hit all of those but…. |
|
|
|
who am i? |
|
|
|
some said you rocked the world the hardest in 07? |
|
YOUR REED HANSEN!!!!! |
|
|
|
Middle names Andrew and dont forget it |
|
|
|
speaking of Andrew. Would you happen to know what Gerry Nunn is doing these days? |
|
|
|
he is eating healthy, staying in shape and riding like the true American he is |
|
|
|
PWC / Boat / winch ? man thats such a typical question. I hate myself. HOLD ON. You are about to shoot a cover shot for a magazine. Lets say its for Women&Guns Digest. The photographer is leaving the shot up to you. What would you use (pwc / boat / winch ) and what trick would you like to be doing? READY GO!!!!!! |
|
|
|
hmmmm |
|
|
|

(thats the sign of me thinking) |
|
|
|

|
Flicked kickflip out of a big gap |
|
|
|

|
|
|
so a winch? |
|
|
|

|
|
|
gotcha |
|
|
|
next question Fred |
|
|
|
so um. in skateboarding they measure things by stairs. 5 stair, 9 stair. How should they measure gaps/ drops in wakeskating? |
|
wompoms? |
|
|
|
when i measure a gap it goes between the rang of knee, waist, chest, head, and huge |
|
|
|
5 wompom? |
|
|
|
some people go by feet but im not that good at counting |
|
|
|
hmm. interesting. i like that |
|
|
|
wompom will also work |
|
|
|
You know Parks right? |
|
|
|

Aaron Reed Volume Issue 2 |
|||||
|
|
never actually seen it |
|
four more questions for tonight |
|
1. Next trick you want to see in wakeboarding and wakeskating? |
|
|
|
if you could think of five then i would be happiert |
|
|
|
||
|
|
wakeboarding and wakeskating? |
|
|
|
do they have to be the sametrick? |
|
|
|
no. two different tricks |
|
one for wakeboarding and one for wakeskating. what do you want to see happen? |
|
|
|
Wakeboarding, i want to see my brother do a method into the flats over another boat tower. |
|
|
|
that would be extreme |
|
|
|
you dont think that would be just stupid? |
|
|
|
wakeskating, tantrum |
|
|
|
tantrum Reed ? |
|
|
|
jk |
|
|
|
the boat tower thing would be awesome |
|
|
|
ha |
|
|
|
Wakeskating, wake to wake frontside flip done at least at 75 foot rope |
|
|
|
who influences you the least in the wakeboarding / wakeskating industry? |
|
bam. reversed that question |
|
|
|
lol |
|
|
|
ummmm…. |
|
|
|
ha. it doesnt have to be a specific name |
|
type maybe? |
|
|
|
Well i would put Pat Panakos and Scott Byerly in the same category. both are them are truely looking out for the sports best interest and not there own. They are expanding it way better than anybody else at the moment |
|
|
|
NO I SAID THE LEAST!!!!! |
|
NOT THE MOST!!! |
|
|
|
i thought you reversed the question? |
|
|
|
I did. people usually ask who inspires / influences riders the most. I want to know the opposite |
|
|
|
oh |
|
|
|
ok |
|
|
|
But you answered the next question with Pat and Scott so thats cool. |
|
|
|
kkkkkkk…. |
|
|
|
||
|
|
ok we will skip that question. I cant ever get anyone to answer that question |
|
|
|
this one is hard |
|
|
|
wanna skip it? |
|
|
|
i will |
|
|
no |
|
|
|
I just got a pen stuck in a curl from my hair |
|
|
|
anybody who doesnt think that fins are important in waqkeskating |
|
|||
|
wow |
|||||
|
|
thats when you know u are curl |
|
|
favorite wakeskate photographer? |
|
|
|
Erik Abbadess |
|
|
|
huh |
|
|
|
well i think that Josh probably takes the best photos, but Abba is my favoriute |
|
|
|
Why have you never gotten a cover shot? |
|
|
|
because nobody likes me |
|
|
|
idk Dan |
|
|
|
is it cuz your too good of a photographer so they wont come shoot you cuz they are jeolous? |
|
|
|
you tell me |
|
|
|
lol |
|
|
|
i wish |
|
|
|
I have a hunch |
|
I forgot what question that was…. who cares. I love you |
|
|
|
i like to shoot twice as much as i used to because now we can sit around and talk about cameras |
|
|
|
love you too |
|
|
|
ya thats cool. I like to film twice as much because I can sit around and talk about how poor I am. |
|
sorry. shouldnt vent |
|
|
|
lol |
|
|
|
your a minor |
|
|
|
yessss |
|
|
|
How come you and I dont drink? dont say cuz your a minor. I wasnt born yesterday. Punk kids. Is it because we are tall? |
|
|
|
well the length of our bones shouldnt have much to do with it. possibly because we have long hair. |
|
|
|
when did you become a scientist? |
|
|
|
Im not sure why you dont drink but i dont cause the bible says you shouldnt drink to get drunk, and if i drank i would get drunk for susre |
|
|
|
twice yesterday |
|
|
|
ha ha. I get drunk on flavored water |
|
|
|
lol |
|
|
|
well im about out of questions. Im going to the sauna. Anything you want to ask me? |
|
|
|
yeah, |
|
|
Why are you sooooo strangely attcacted to German cooks? |
|
|
|
huh? ask another |
|
|
|
Why do you feel the absolute need to give someone a new nickname everytime you see them? |
|
|
|
easy. My parents locked me in a basement for 78 hours when I was in 5th grade. duh |
|
why would you bring that up again? |
|
|
|
sorry, forgot all about it… |
|
|
|
