World's Biggest Skateboard!

Version 1.0 of the World's Biggest Skateboard website is up! See it at www.WorldsBiggestSkateboard.com

It will also be appearing on "Ripley's believe it or not" in Nov-Dec 2001. We shot this last Saturday the 11th of Nov at various San Diego locations. It was complete comedy filming with Foundation staffers, Marc Gariss, Josh Beagle, Matt Barker, Tod Swank, Damon Mills and friend Kevin Furtardo. Lot's of slams and over acting added to the hilarity. I will update you with the air date ASAP.

Yuck Fou too!

Team happenings.

Ethan Fowler is busy traveling with Vans right now. He has a Vans park opening in Phoenix, then one in Houston and then off to New Zealand for a tour with Thrasher. I’m not sure of the dates, but if you live in Phoenix or Houston, I’m sure you’ve already heard. If you live in New Zealand, start asking around they shouldn’t be hard to spot.

Kris Markovich and Daniel Shimizu have just started getting busy shooting photos for a Big Brother interview. Each interview will be in separate issues. You can be sure that when I say getting busy, I mean that they are getting jawsome!
