Colin McKay is one of the most influential skaters involved in modern vert skating today. He's performed tricks and set ideas in motion nearly two decades ago that some of his peers are just putting into practice now. McKay surprised more than a few fans when he returned to contest skating after many year's hiatus last summer at the X Games 16 to compete and win a silver medal.

McKay, a co-founder of the newer iteration of Plan B skateboards, alongside long-time friend Danny Way, has been heavily involved in building that team and upholding the company's legacy for progression established during its first go around back in the 1990s when McKay was one of the initial team riders. In this exclusive video interview McKay talks about the legacy and future of Plan B, the status of their next video offering and what he'd still like to do as part of an already legendary career.
