You can't teach an old dog new tricks but it's good to have a couple on the shelf when you need them. In this pod we take a look at how Warren Ray uses skateboarding to help him overcome his addiction.

  • Wow! What an inspirational message for all the smokers who are trying to kick the habit and for the little skaters out there who think its cool to smoke. I recently quit after a 16 year addiction. Your video by far beats any anti-smoking commercial on tv. It should be a PSA, maybe kids will then pay attention!

    Congratulations Warren, and what a great video Scott, great job, A+. I vote you #1.

  • I LOVE IT!!! That's the only way to over come addiction with out adding more drugs to overcome that addiction. Keep you mind working, keep your body focused. You will find something, that keeps you motivated and passionate. The mission is not to stop smoking, the mission is to put your heart, mind, body and soul into another focus. When all come together, you let go of all the trivial things, like smoking and smaller worries in your life. Plus you end up feeling better about yourself. I'm there right now, so ride on man!

  • Got kind of boring using the same interview all the way through and the action is pretty slow since the guy can't skateboard very well.

    Great video Scott! Really cool to see how skateboarding helped Warren deal with his smoking addiction.

    I just want to give a shoutout to the way I gave up cigarettes. I read a few reviews on Amazon for this book, and figured I might as well give it a try. I had nothing to lose, and am still surprised how easy it was to quit after reading this book.
