With his trademark aviator sunnies and monster energy drink in hand, the coolest bro on campus, Liam ‘Lehmo’ Lehmann (19), has once again been spotted using the stick to get him from the east to west side of Forgan Smith, a decision which he has described as ‘a hundy percent necessary’.

Rocking up to class sweaty and stylistically late, it’s easy to be under the impression that this Michael J Fox has skated all the way from west end.

However, truth be told, a hectic schedule has meant that Lehmo simply hasn’t had the time to hit up the local indro skatepark during the semester, justifying packing the board in the boot of his Suzuki Swift.

Suspicions arose later today when one of his biomed mates suggested drinks at the reddo. “Nah, can’t,” he quickly replied. “You didn’t drive, did you?” “Ah, nah, it’s just like, ceebs”, Lehmo quipped, nervously scratching his woollen beanie.

Despite skating scarily close to a couple of slow-walkers in the food court most days, sk8er boy doesn’t see himself as a campus menace, respectfully carrying his ride when walking down flights of stairs and occasionally holding doors open for girls.

Although driving to campus has been steep on his wallet this month, Lehmo advised The Obiter that he rarely “chucks on the Cellopark’”. “I’m risky like that”.

No more to come.
