Sitting down with Ishod Wair is a lot like driving with him. You’re go a million miles per hour and cover a lot of ground. In December of last year, we went and spent a day with Ishod for a fast paced deep dive into his everyday essentials from the gym to the streets. We chatted cameras, cars, skating, and the people he keeps closest. All in his first layer of choice: The Icon Sock.
Which one of these cameras was your first?
This is the one that started it all. I have some expired Fuji in it. I really started shooting about a year ago actually. I used to shoot Polaroids and point and shoots 14 years ago.

Raised in Bordentown, New Jersey, Ishod started skateboarding at an early age. He was an out and out sportsman from the get go, but at an early age started consolidating his other sports like basketball to focus solely on skateboarding - a move which definitely paid off. In he began to make a name for himself in the skate industry with regularly showing up at Tampa AM and his groundbreaking tricks like the switch fs bigspin down the famous Love Park fountain gap. Which resulted in getting picked up by Nike SB, Monster Energy, Real skateboards, Thunder and spitfire wheels.
Ishod’s big break came in with the famous video part in Real - Since Day One. This signified his move from amateur to professional skater. Two years later Wair won the Thrasher Skater of the Year award with his videoparts: The SB Chronicles Vol. 02, Chronicling Ishod: The Prequel, Fourstar's Wair 'N' Tear and Sabotage 3 Remix. These achievements launched Ishod’s career into the stratosphere and culminated in him receiving his own Nike SB Dunk colorway in which sold out instantly in skate shops world wide.
