Pro skateboarder Erik Ellington’s first-ever tattoo was nearly a casualty of his INKED photo shoot. “I went bombing down a hill and slammed,” the 31-year-old skater recounts. “I rolled down the hill like a rag doll, scraping up my whole right side.” The fall slashed up the word “Balance” on his upper arm—the name of the skate company he and a pal started as teenagers growing up in Tempe, AZ, one of the many ’hoods Ellington would call home en route to his current digs in Hollywood.
