KR3W/Supra and Element rider, Bjorn Johnston, gives us the lowdown on his spare time, his high school days and what he’ll be doing in the lead-up to this weekend’s Shocklands.

My name is… Bjorn

I live… in Sydney

Besides from skating I also spend time… riding motorcycles, shooting photos, filming, surfing…

My parents always thought I was going to be… whatever I wanted to be.

The trick that took me the longest to stomp was… most of them these days. Ha ha.

In high school I… left an all boys school with uniforms to attend a co-ed one with a lunchtime skate park on the basketball courts.

When I’m skating I listen to… the sound of my wheels/bearings, board??

The last thing I did that I regret now was…trying to answer this question.

To prepare for Shocklands, I will…skate as usual,

On the evening before the comp, you’ll find me… somewhere in Melbourne

The first thing I’ll do after the comp is…grab my stuff and head to the airport, heading overseas on Monday and have lots to sort out on the Sunday after.

My lucky charm is…gotta make your own luck.
