Catfish

Oct 27, 2008 — Kingston, Ontario

This past summer, we started to work on some original features for Defgrip. While we were traveling for contests or random trips, we linked up with a hand full of people we are psyched on and put together some video interviews for the site. This is our first small step to bring everyone original video content and we are psyched on the results. For the next month, we’ll be releasing videos with Jeff Z, Jim Bauer, Greyboy, Truly Odd, and Nasty!

For the first original Defgrip video, we bring you an interview with Catfish. We sat down with him after Metro Jam this past summer and asked him everything from making girls cry, to telling stories to ex co-workers at Ford.

    I have to say after watching this interview and listening to what he said, Catfish does have his head on his shoulders.

    Keep at it man, you turned this non-believer around.

    Yeah! This video was so awesome. Catfish is awesome, he has really shown me how awesome BMX can be since I have known him.

    I am really excited to see what you guys got planned from now on with this original content stuff.

    [...] was psyched to read that one of his topics, the whole BMX vs. Freestyle name debate, was sparked by our interview with Catfish! It’s definitely interesting to read what Taj has to say about the whole thing [...]
