"Met Geoff in 2011 and then 5 months ago randomly at my local in the morning ! I was alone and he popped up ! Showed him the old 11 year old photo and he was so happy ! Went to his car and gave me his pro model board ! It’s hanging on my wall ! Love this dude"
"48 years old, full head of hair and able to shred and slam, what a wizard"
"Dudes rocking the George Harrison during the Sgt Pepper era look :)"
"What a amazingly humble guy. His contribution to skating in bar none. Great episode. 😊"
"LEGEND! As a over 40 year old, its so crucial to be active consistently. Glad he is still doing it at the highest levels and staying active."
"I was at Radlands in Northampton UK in Autumn 1992 when it opened and there was this little gnarly kid who was about five feet tall who really stuck out and Radlands was fucking RAMMED,you could barely move so for this kid to stand out he had to have something about him. After a while.I was on the small mini ramp with about eight million other kids and this small kid Ollied off the roof of the shop into the mini ramp and almost shut the place down. That Kid was Geoff Rowley. I'm fifty years old now and a lot's happened in that time,a lot of friends have come and gone so to see Geoff still killing it blows my fuckin mind. Nice one Geoff."
