šŸŽ„ The Hippiesā€™ Kid Goes Gypsy

5 years ago | Words: Andy Wigan | Photos: Deus Ex Machina/Harry Mark, Aaron Brimhall, Drew Martin

Youā€™ve heard of Forrest Minchinton, right? No? Cā€™mon … the stylinā€™ SoCal cat who was raised in the desert by a couple of hippie-cool parents. No? The dude whoā€™s carved out a name for himself as both a surfboard shaper and dirt bike racer, and now travels the world doing both, playing Deus ambassador-of-steez while heā€™s at it.
Anyway, after winging it into Oz to race the Transmoto 12-Hour a couple of weeks back, 27-year-old Forrest Minchinton (and his good bro, Mark ā€œMad Chookā€ Cormack) swung by the Gypsy Talesā€™ podcast dungeon on the Gold Coast to talk shop, and shit, with Jase Macalpine. Itā€™s a long but cool conversation, so check it out.
