Andrew Reynolds is one of the most influential and diverse skateboarder in the skateboarding industry.  Reynolds reigns from Lakeland, Florida where he began skateboarding at the young age of nine years old. Born in 1978, Reynolds was beginning to prime in the golden years of skateboarding, being deemed Thrasher’s “Skateboarder of the Year” in 1998. 

            In 1997 Reynolds made the move from his small hometown in Florida to Huntington Beach in California.  Living in California allowed him to be surrounded by a lager skate scene and become noticed to the up in coming skate media.  He loved the laid back lifestyle of southern California and the relaxed attitude towards skateboarding.  He later migrated further north to Hollywood where he currently resides.  As his popularity grew he also grew into a new lifestyle that he maintained for some time.  He, along with fellow team riders, became heavy drinkers and known to many as the “Piss Drunks.” Reynolds has been sober for some time now and focuses his energy on running his company, skateboarding and his daughter Stella.  Reynolds has become involved in designing clothes as Head Designer for Altamont Apparel.  His career has snowballed into the best possible situation that any professional skateboarder could ask for. 

            Reynolds has maintained a successful professional skateboarding career, skating strong still into his thirties.  Along with his professional skateboarding he has also built a skateboarding empire through ownership of several skate companies including Baker Skateboards.  Given his skateboarding background and his involvement in the current skate scene Reynolds, or “The Boss” is one of the most well respected people in the industry.
