You guys voted, and he was your pick. Here's the questions you asked to Dr_Feelgood, your November Member of the Month!
1. Let’s get the basics: How old are you, how long have you been skating, etc.
I would be 18 years young, sexy and Australian. Ive been skating for about six or so years but only started getting serious about it over the past maybe 3 years. Im actually pretty lucky, my best friends live right next door and we started skating together and still skate everyday together. Im also more of a street guy, I love me some stairs, ledges, gaps etc. Me and vert never really got along. Id like to think im a pretty easy going guy, I,ll give everyone a fair chance. Friday and Saturday nights for the past few years have been spent at partys or skating. I love night sessions…..I love everything at night.
2. How do you manage to always speak your mind on SC without hesitation?
Haha well Im not really sure, I just don’t hold back, I guess one day it could get me in some trouble because im like that in the real world aswell. If I see
something I don’t like or have something to say I,ll say it, I really don’t care who it is. I can respect you and love you to death but if you do or say something I don’t like you will hear about it. If ive learned anything in life its don’t worry what people think of you, don’t try to change for anyone. Be yourself and always enjoy life.
3. We all know you as ''The Doc'', any chance of going into medical school, or do you have bigger plans for yourself career wise?
Hahaha who wrote this question? Well medical school…..It will always be the dream but I just don’t think it was meant to be. You see unfortunately me and my brain don’t get along to well when it comes to applying myself to “hitting the books”. I’ll always be “The Doc” just not medical school wise. Maybe the Doctor of love, who knows, theres a whole world of possibility out there for me.
4. Who is the man behind the keyboard? What do you do when you aren’t skating or on the cafe?
Well when im not skating or on skaterscafe I'm usually hanging out with friends watching skate videos or just straight up chillin. I actually played football for 12 years of my life but stopped two years ago, it just wasn’t for me. Skating was my true passion. When im inside though theres nothing better then sitting back putting on some tunes and playing a game like grand theft auto or whatever. Always does the trick for me.
5. What skateboard trick would you like to land most?
Well my favorite trick is a simple one but fun. KICKFLIPS. I love them, they are fun down stairs and gaps, hell even cruising down the road and just busting a kickflip is fun for me. One trick id like to learn the most though is nollie manual tricks.
6. Describe the Land Down Under from your point of view.
Australia….My home sweet home. A lot of people think of Australia as all bush land, kangaroos hoppin around everywhere and boiling hot temperatures. Its quite the opposite. Its probably the exact same as American, Canada etc. I love Australia and am very proud to be Australian. Most of us are laid back friendly type and skate wise we have some very nice spots. If I could change one thing though, id ask for a white Christmas. It never snows here.
7. Do you have any other interests outside of skating?
Not really, like I said earlier I did play football for a fair few years but im past that now. Music/Friends/Skating. That’s my life.
8. How are you so sexy?
I'm Aussie, its what I do baby.
9. Why do you rock so hard?
I think it has something to do with me being a male sex symbol. Just cause I rock doesn't mean I'm made of stone baby
10. Have you ever considered stand-up?
Haha I actually don’t find myself that funny. Sometimes I,ll get like a good set up or just pull out weird one liners and I,ll think now that was hilarious and laugh at my own joke for about 5 minutes which makes me 10 times more lame. I don’t think I could handle stand up, If I told a joke and didn’t get a laugh id probably cry and throw my pants at the audience or id spend my time on stage insulting the audience.
11. What country would you most like to visit?
America, I have always wanted to go there. Believe it or not when I was younger I use to think I was an American born in an Australians body because I was just obsessed with it and always wishing I was born there for no real reason.
12. Who is your favorite member and why?
Tough question, I seriously like everybody on the café and I hate to choose but I have to go with JesusHadHerpes. When I first joined this guy stood out and I think we were on the same wave length right up, he will always be my homie. We are different like lifestyle and music wise but in the end it what it comes down to is that we are both skateboarders, I got alot of love and respect for the man.
13. Does it sometimes feel bad to feel so damn good all the time?
Hahahahha seriously, what is wrong with you people, what kind of question is this hahaha. Truthfully I gotta be bad to feel good.
14. If you had a the privilege to stop one single thing no matter what it was (Global Warming, underage sex, Barbara Streisand, etc.) What would it be, and why?
Violence. Theres nothing worse then going out at night for a skate or a good time and running into people who are looking for trouble and out numbering you and laying a beat down on you for no reason. It seems these days everybody has something to prove by picking fights with innocent people.

15. What is your main outlook on life...your beliefs? Your goals?
My main outlook on life is simple. Always have fun, no matter where you are or what your doing make sure your enjoying life. I just want to always enjoy life, I want to have a solid enjoyable job and have a family. I think Bob Dylan says it best - Success? Whats success? Success is going to bed at night, getting up in the morning and doing what YOU want in between.
16. What beats do you roll to?
Old school glam rock type stuff mostly, Poison, kiss, motley crue etc But im also into a lot of the newer stuff like new found glory, my chemical romance, taking back sunday, fall out boy, less than jake.
17. If you've been given a chance to live up to 200 years old...would you do aside from skating?
Become really bored and a really sexy 200 yr old whos still making jokes about his genitals.
18. How did you end up being a well-loved member of Skaters Cafe?
I really have no idea, I remember when I joined, I have been a member of transworld skateboarding for a long time and I was looking for something more, I found the café and realized there was moderators so I had tone myself down a bit but still always spoke my mind which I'm sure some people don’t like but the others will be alright with it and I'm guessing respected me for it or just got a laugh out of me.
19. Is there anybody that you would die for? If not what’s the farthest you would go to save them?
Die for….That’s a big thing to say, I'm not going to lie. I don’t think I'd die for anyone, I haven't found anyone THAT special to me yet but id a lot for my two closest friends, Id go as far as needed to save them….I hate seeing people get ganged up on, I witnessed a guy I barely knew get hit from behind and like 3 guys were stomping him so me being stupid ran up and hit one and I ended up with a black eye and a broken hand.
20. Who or what inspired you to skate?
Many years ago I played a demo for tony hawks pro skater, loved it so I bought the game and then bought a skateboard, the rest is history.
21. How have you managed to not be a **** to me, ever?
Haha well Nick asked this and I already gave him an answer. We just never crossed paths. One day we will, im sure. GET IN THE RING.
22. Would you ever consider becoming a lawyer?
Way to much work involved for feelgood, I couldn’t handle all those hours in an office. Id love the pay cheque though
23. What’s the life of an Australian playboy such as you like?
Its pretty fun. Skating, partying, being sexy, you know its pretty good having all the girls and money and fame and fortune….Its funny though they only come to me in dreams then I wake up and stare at my poster of Drew Carrey.
24. How do you make people feel so darn good?
I tell it like it is, I'll listen, I,ll give my input and always try and make someone smile or laugh. Laughter is the key to anybodys heart.
I would just like to end this interview by thanking everyone who voted for me and for everyone who didn’t I hate you and I still won so SUCK ONE. Just kidding J Id like to give a shout out to sq22, n00bed, arto-geoff, Jhh, emenikmatis, I love you all but these were the names that popped into my head as my homies at this point in time. Praise me, I am now your god.
P.s Most of my latest footage in still on my camera which is now in a whole new state so sorry I couldn’t post anything better. All I could get was a sketchy kickflip from a few months back.
