To know Jake Lamagno is to love him. A committed East Coaster with a heart of gold, an eye for fashion, and one of the raddest skating styles around, Jake moved to NYC from Vermont in 2003 and seemed to be on the fast track to making it in America. But Jake had another talent and that was sniffing out a party – literally. You could count on Jake knowing where the wildest shit would be going on in the City, but you could also count on him to end the night well past dawn the next day more often than not downing drugs and drinks on a random rooftop before starting his own game of personal chicken, jumping from rooftop to rooftop, sometimes forty stories up, daring gravity to fuck with him. If you knew Jake during those days, you were scared for him. At the high point of those hazy times, Jake had a part in Nolan Lee’s “The Dirty Version” that seemed to be his big break. But after that we never heard from him again. Almost four drug and alcohol soaked years later, Jake Lamagno is back, he’s sober, and he’s not fucking around. Read the exclusive first interview with him after the jump and stay tuned cause Jake is joining the Radcollector columns, welcome back buddy!
