He dissapered after Wski106, adn his part in that was nasty. Anyone know what happened to him, or what hes been up to because that kid had skillz, and coulda gone big.

yep he went flying...
and i thought the pimp thing from wski was pretty baller. Probably the only time I got to see shoya in a large segment which was cool. His corks off of the big table in mammoth were awesome.

The fact he walked away from that shit amazed me. He went SO high in the air.
