destroying by example

Desillusion Magazine presents a very intimate film with Erik Ellington, discussing his struggle with alcohol that nearly destroyed his life and almost made him land behind bars for 30 years.

Erik is known for his skateboarding and for starting the bad-boy skate company that is Baker Skateboards, but in this film he discusses his life away from the spotlight. He shares how he grew wild and un-tame, often making bad decisions, and how he’s decided to completely stop drinking and move beyond those years, to reach his full potential marking a new positive chapter in his life without alcohol holding him back.
