Fivers with Erik Fisher

A positive attitude yields positive results. Erik Fisher knows this. He’s a skate rat to the core and has been down to support us since day one.  Asking him to do the first Fivers was a no-brainer. We sent him the questions and he had them back to us the very same day.  We love the guy.  If you’re on Water Street be sure to stop by Ballistic and give him a high-five for us.
