KZ: Hi Poppy! What would K-Zoners be surprised to learn about you?

P: I’m constantly finding new hobbies. One week I’ll teach myself to crotchet, embroider, juggle, make lino prints, or play the ukulele. I’m currently recording a song that I’ve written.

KZ: What is something about being a pro skateboarder that might surprise K-Zoners?

P: You can only be called a pro skateboarder when a company decides to create a board graphic with your name on it.

KZ: Any tips for K-Zoners who want to improve their skateboarding skills?

P: Try and get out of your comfort zone every time you skate. Have fun and lift yourself up. Send it!
