Aaron Smith Interview

Aaron is one of those east coast riders that has really kicked a lot of ass the past two years or so. There were always a few clips here and there, then once he started picking up a few sponsors that really gave him the opportunity to travel and ride more, his riding progressed an insane amount. These days, he’s been bouncing around all over and just killing it on everything he comes across. We figured it was well overdue that we caught up with Aaron to find out what’s new with him, what he has cooking in the near future and just to learn a little bit more about what he’s about! Let’s see what he had to say!
