If you follow him on social media, you know him as Trenter Bugg. But if you roll with any group in Atlanta, you will inevitably meet Parker. Regardless of what you call him or what you know of him, once you meet him you will never forget him. Another force of nature to be featured on this show, Parker goes harder than anyone I know.
Struggling with ADHD as a kid and still managing it to this day, you can kind of understand where his energy level comes from. How he learned to channel both through his gift of skating is a fascinating story. Struggling with so many of the issues we all did growing up, Parker took some time to balance his lifestyle. It wasn’t easy and he is still working through the process. But in that process, he has accomplished some insane feats in the world on in-line skating. And he has used his ADHD to his advantage modifying and designing skates and accessories that will allow him to go faster, harder, and longer.
I first met Parker getting ready for A2A which was a daunting feat, in itself. He took me (like so many others) under his wing and showed me the tips and techniques on how to survive the 87-mile grind. And as you will soon hear, that is ultimately his most admirable quality despite all his crazy accomplishments. Parker has been able to turn his challenges into assets, and he is always prepared for adventure, as long as his friends are down for the ride. Buckle up and strap in for my wild ride with Parker aka Trenter Bugg.
