Marcus Payne is regarded as one of the top professional skateboarders in the UK. Ask anyone who’s seen him skate in the flesh and they’ll tell you just how good he is. Whether he skates street, park or transition he blends his effortless surf-style and technical ability. One of the most enthusiastic guys you’ll ever meet, Marcus explained why he’s so keen, “The stoke of learning new tricks, and the endless possibilities are all reasons why I’m so hyped on skating, but perhaps the biggest reason of all is because it’s just so much fun!” Not only a skater, but also a great musician, he sings, writes songs and plays keys for ‘Slick Minded Individuals’, one of the finest live bands on the South-Coast.
