Looking back at the pioneering days of skateboarding, Jay Adams and his association with the Z-Boys skate crew were some of the most influential skate personalities to pave the way for modern skating. In an interview in conjunction with Tribal Gear, Jay Adams talks ultra candidly about his experience skateboarding and the effects brought on by a lifestyle of drug use. Substance abuse has long been one of the darker sides of the skate industry as Adams recounts the events that led to his current sobriety. Together with Tribal Gear, Jay Adams will be releasing a limited run of skate decks featuring photo prints of Adams, photographed by Bobby Ruiz.
