The Animal He Loves So Much… He Got It Tattooed | Inked Tattoo Tour with Diplo.

October 14, 2025 3:53 pm

Whether he’s standing on the lip of an enormous vert ramp or sitting across from Ozzy Osbourne ready to interview the legend, Jason Ellis always appears to be perfectly poised and ready to rock. But inside? Abject terror. Ellis has learned to use the fear to his advantage, relishing every time he’s able to vanquish that particular nemesis. And if we were to check the scorecard, it looks like he’s undefeated thus far. In between racing cars, shooting a flamethrower and getting punched in the face at our photoshoot, Ellis chatted with Sarah Hyland of the “Not Cool” podcast to walk us through his extraordinary life. Read the interview and check out the photo shoot here: https://inkedmag.com/motion/jason-ellis/ Jason Ellis: https://www.instagram.com/wolfmate/ Sarah Hyland: https://www.instagram.com/sarahhylandrosenstein/ WEBSITE: http://www.inkedmag.com/ FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/inkedmag TWITTER: https://twitter.com/inkedmag INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/inkedmag/

Daymond John | The Man Behind the Ink

January 19, 2024 10:00 am

What do you get when you have a controlling father, a strict and secluded Rastafarian upbringing, six Street Skateboarding World Championships, 13 Summer X Games gold medals, three ESPY awards, total domination of Olympic qualifying for Paris 2024, and sponsors the likes of Nike SB, Monster and Disorder Skateboards? You get Nyjah Huston at 28 years old and seemingly on top of the world of street skateboarding. He has come a long way since spending four years isolated on a rural farm in Puerto Rico under his father’s questionable managerial control.  After he reunited with his mother and siblings, his mother spent her last $100 to get Nyjah from their home in Davis, California, to his first Street League Skateboarding event in Phoenix, Arizona. SLS, Ridiculousness and Fantasy Factory founder Rob Dyrdek had to lend Huston’s mother the money for a hotel room.  Never one to disappoint, sixteen-year-old Huston stunned Dyrdek and the judges by winning the event, collecting a $150,000 prize and stabilizing his family’s financial situation. His meteoric rise in the skateboarding world has seen him win more prize money than any other professional skateboarder in history, but was almost snuffed out in its early stages. In a wide-ranging interview with Inked Magazine’s own Jayme Foxx that takes place aboard a private flight with Huston’s new aviation partner Set Jet, Inc., Nyjah opens up about his family, his career, his tattoos and his philosophy on skateboarding. Presented by Set Jet Photos: Editorial by Spencer Fahlman https://www.instagram.com/spencerfahlman/ Assistant photographer Abby https://www.instagram.com/place2drown/  Interview by Jayme Foxx https://www.instagram.com/jaymefoxx/ DP: Spencer Fahlman Assistant Director & Sound: Jeff Iverson First AC: Nicole Martinez Makeup: Abby Special thanks to Tom Smith and the Set Jet team.
