Drugs were a way of life for Kirt Voreis’ parents.

His father died in a motorcycle crash while high on cocaine when Kirt was just 5 years old.

He recalls how his mother raised him among methamphetamine addicts in Fontana, Calif., and became addicted to the drug herself, working nights to support her son.

Kirt remembers fighting off his mother’s heroin-addicted boyfriend when he was just 10 years old.

He was determined not to follow the same tragic path as his parents.

“I grew up around a lot of Hells Angels and stuff like that,” Voreis says.

“Meth is big now, but when I was a kid it was life. My mom got hooked on it to work and feed me. Most of my adolescence, it was me going and finding things on my own. It was a crazy environment to grow up in. I wouldn’t change it for anything, but … I put a lot of my effort into sport.

For me, it was about jumping down streets on my skateboard.”
