flo at “the island” / photo: richard quintero
Flo Mirtain (not to be confused with Flo Marfaing) is really good at skateboarding, but who isn’t these days? So in an effort to give you a bit more about this technically gifted wood-pusher, here’s a few tidbits we learned about him while he stayed on our couch for two weeks: Flo is addicted to Coca-Cola. He collects classic Coke memorabilia, and has been known to occasionally wake up in the middle of the night and chug the nearest bottle. And when Flo wasn’t sipping soda or watching a shit ton of skate parts in our kitchen, he was sending postcards from NYC back to Lyon to his family, friends, and maybe even a special girl. Listen below to what might be one of our smoothest, sexiest mixes yet.

What a shame that no matter what part he’s gonna drop, whatever contests he’s gonna win – he’s always gonna be FLO(W) . Now let’s make me feel stupid about this idiotic wordplay.
