Anthony on Jason
"I was psyched because I looked up to him. He was one of my favorite skaters and then he helped me get on 23 Skateboards. I was stoked because I was on the same team as him. Then we lived together-under the conditions, things just got hectic. It was a crowded house, what can I say? We both look back on that time and just laugh. Everything that happened has made our relationship stronger. Once we started together, we haven't stopped. I tend to get mad easily, and he's mellower, so it's a good combination when we skate. We push each other; I'll give him pointers on a trick and he'll do the same. Our relationship is way more than just skating, though, we sit around and laugh about shit until four in the morning."

Jason on Anthony
"We started skating together in 1996. We both lived in Orange County, and he was so talented that I wanted to skate with him all the time. Then we got an apartment in L.A.-that was weird. I had a girlfriend and she didn't like Anthony, and he didn't like her. It was f---ed up. Now, that's all over with; she's my ex-girlfriend. We skate and drink coffee together. We want to go to Amsterdam and skate and drink coffee over there for a change of location. We both drink iced cappuccinos with lots of sugar. We'll run five of those a day in L.A. and 10 a day when we're in New York. We skate together a lot. Many of the pros here don't skate. This may surprise you, but you can be pro in L.A. and not even skate. I know it's hard to believe. A lot of times we just hang out at each other's apartments-we live down the street from each other. We'll sit around and talk about how much we hate skate stuff-there'll never be another Gonz, another Natas, another Jason Lee. Maybe Arto will be like one of those guys-that guy can skate. Basically we're a bunch of jaded motherf---ers."
