Scott Pommier is a writer, director and photographer whose work has been published in Thrasher, Skateboarder and Transworld (to name a few). Now residing in Los Angeles and Portland, he works with brands such as Harley Davidson, General Motors, Adidas, Nike and Vans. Before making his mark internationally, Scott started skateboarding in the streets of Sudbury with his brother Andrew. When he wasn’t out skating, he was selling skate products out of his DIY skate shop, PLINKO, which he ran out of his childhood home’s garage with his friends Tye Thomas and Mark Pryzbylo during the early 90's. While he has received many accolades for his photography and directing work, he also continues to rip on his board. *Footage in skate montage is copyright of their respective owners
