Name: Maxwell James Chilen
Age: Twenty-Done

Nickname: Chilenska,
You just went on a cruise, how was that?
We went to Alaska and saw some tight glaciers n shit. and got real drunk for hella expensive.
How does it feel to be Tim Chilen’s seed?
Tim’s hella tight
Feeble 180 at the Lawrence Police Station
Your house, The Mansion, is notoriously known for the skate house, tell me about that and how it started to be?
Cuz people always come over here and sleep n shit. Ben was the first person to call it the mansion.
Who pushes you more in skating, Tim, Ryan Lovell, your brother, or Doug?
A couple weeks ago I got 2 Done clips in one day with Doug. Yesterday I hippie jumped JW’s door and Doug filmed that, so i guess Doug.
What’s your favorite beer and why?
Well it’s pretty simple. Obviously Old Style is the best beer ever. It tastes good as hella and if you go to Chicago you can get it in 12 packs of bottles and that’s the best thing ever.
What’s your favorite thing about skateboarding in Kansas?
There’s tight ass spots and most of the parks suck but they’re kinda fun. Plus Malto noseslid police station to fakie. that’s pretty epic.
What’s your favorite non skateboarding thing to do in kansas?
Taco Tuesday’s and bowling are always the shit. Then there’s like gettin drunk at slabb’s barbecue and also “gettin drunk wit da homies”
Tell me about Robin Harper.
First of all a-smith, you misspelled his name dumbdick. It’s Rawbin Harper. And rawbin’s pretty regit. He’s good at art n shit and can still skate even though he technically quit for 2 hours. text him, 913-548-7769.
How was filming for Fourteen Deep? Any different than Through Being Nice?
Well I didn’t nollie flip over d-wall like i was planning to like I did in Through Being Nice, so much better fa sho.
Tell me some cool story that has happened to you in the past few weeks.
Me and Rod have been watching King Of The Hill a lot lately, its been pretty tight and drinking royals budweiser tall cans. Or watching the Chief come party at arthur’s after the fallen premiere. He was helluuhhh drunk.
