Back in 1986, Chuck was 19, he was working at a skateshop in Florida when he got sponsored by Walker Skateboards. He started winning some Pro/Am contests and eventually become the East Coast Street Champ for the ESA. That transitioned into a full time job at Ocean Ave Distribution (owned by Bruce Walker) and he turned Pro at the Savannah Slamma contest shortly after. He got to travel and skate a bunch as a Pro in the late 80's. In the 90's he started a board brand called Soul Trip and has been working in the music business for the last 20+ years. He still skates for fun and recently has been winning Slalom contests. He is also running the Florida Skateboard Hall of Fame.  

Chuck has been wearing an S1 Lifer Helmet for the last 10 years.

"I got an S1 Lifer Helmet about ten years ago and noticed the fit and safety were much better than the helmets I grew up wearing. I have been wearing S1 Lifers ever since. S1 was the first helmet company to make a really good skate helmet."
