So i dont think skating on new years night is a good idea. I guess since theres so many cops out looking for drunk drivers means you're gonna get the boot from most spots. We lit up this rail and got kicked out immediatly. Hey atleast at Rincon a security guard tried to cuff us and hit us with a steal rod. That was exciting...
Scores a Muska right away...
Don't you love those?

Walking around with your head in the ground, it makes no sense at all.
It's hard work fixin' up a house...
Don't we all enjoy a good cobbing?

Griff helps Josh scrape the cancer causing popcorn off the ceilings in the new house he bought!
Matt B is pleading with you. Just let him roam.
Suffer.
I try to make the photos as blurry as possible. Then somebody might think its art or something. This spot is pretty cool looking though. ehhh nice
Austin catches the warm glow of late day sun...
Johnny gets stale like bread. That's it.
Suffer.
Theres a this or that contest on the SkatePark Of Tampa website. You have a chance to win some new shoes. Luuuckkky
I pretty much have every obstacle they make now i think. I turned the whole sample table/christmas gift basket area into the course. I hope no one minds? We even got the loop and the mega ramp. I'm only half serious with all this, keep that in mind.
With his 'Magic Comb' that he bought in South America. Its a comb with a razor blade in it.
Josh and Matt get busy in the playground while Ed gets his kicks.
Check the latest issue of Thrasher for a Foundation article. One Night of violence, chaos, and immorality.
Billy wonders how much of his pro-model stuff you got for Christmas yesterday. He's got bills to pay and mouths to feed.
Suffer The Joy, please and thank you.
It's Christmas and that means shameless consumer grabbing is coming to a close. Be sure to wrap your hands around some of that Toy Machine product, pawns.
Suffer The Joy of a holiday laugh.
Skaters from around the world: #1 of 1, maybe 2...
After the riot in Barcelona, no taxi would pick us up, and we had to walk really far back to our hotel...
Ed is captured here in a more serious moment. Check Suffer The Joy for a look at the ridiculous.
While shooting the famous Austin Stephens... Enjoy your pre-Christmas weekend!!!
Bit of Christmas History: 1-2-3
Griffin paddles out past the first break, and waits for the Big Kahuna. Takes it.
And that's all that I yam. Austin is just like Popeye the sailor man.
Don't forget to Suffer The Joy. Scenes from the cutting room floor...
cheers!
Ok the contest is over. These are the winners I chose. Winners please make sure you send in you're address and t shirt size so i can get some stuff out to you as soon as possible. I'm still waiting on a video submission from a kid. Pretty curious as to what that is. Thanks to everyone that entered Foundations Worst Contest Ever Contest. Stay tuned for another contest. Maybe send in you're requests for the next contest on what you want it to be. caca@tumyeto.net
Even more random.
Eerrr.
Somewhere in the middle of the USA, where it was hotter than a warlock's left one.

Ted's entry
Hey so the worst contest ever contest just got a little more legit. I think the kid that has all the foundation stuff hanging on the wall is winning so far. But I like the deck entry also. Good work guys you're high fives are in the mail...just kidding...maybs. Tomorrow the contest should end around 10am so i have time to send everything out before we leave for christmas break. So send in some more entries people. Here's what its all about if you're just now joining us. Its a contest to prove who is Foundation's biggest fan out there. Show me you're the biggest fan and win. What will you win you ask...tech decks, wheels, t shirts, stickers, decks possibly if worthy, and you have a chance to be America's Next Top Model also. Hey what other contest out there can you win that much variety? Send pictures to - caca@tumyeto.net
I changed the name because of the stuff you guys have sent in so far. Nothing spectacular. I kind of like todays pick though. Connor from AZ is obviously a Duffel Fan. I've been flooded with so many emails from people that I think I'm gonna extend the contest to friday. So you're in luck if you have some finishing touches on you're Foundation Christmas display for you're house.
With his early Christmas present, an Italian pasta maker, and his Argentina apron, the Butcher while not skating is making great dinner for him and his wife...
Check out the latest Transworld Business Article about Fiberlam board contruction. The hottest new item since the Apple i pod. A must have stocking stuffer...
Go to the Foundation Website and check out all the new pics that were added. Scroll down to the bottom of the page...
Drinking a beer and wearing a Foundation shirt. Simple and yet he still might win something. This is better then what other people have sent in so far. By the way...nice try Steve in Michigan, but I'm pretty sure that was photoshopped.
What Role Models we have at the Bloodsucking Corporation...
"...could very well be the most ambitious
skateboard video box set ever,
and its not to be missed."

still not convinced?
fine...go see for yourself at the official Foundation Keep on Rolling website.
Sierra has clip of the week over at Crailtap
He also has a interview in the new Skateboarder Magazine.
Skate Toy Machine...
This photo makes us happy. Whoever did this should write a letter to Toy Machine with proof that it is you, 'cause we want to hook you up for showing such EPIC PAWN spirit! You Rule!
He's gnarly.
Matt B comes out with a front board in OZ...
Frickin' Hippies go to Suffer The Joy...
You never know what will come next for him.
Somewhere in Austin, Texas... Pola's by Grif

On a car instead of J-lay or Josh. (cause he knows they would work him.)
The Butcher can't be seen driving a Geo Metro, what kind of message would that send?

Allright so i have a pile of product sitting on my desk that i need to get rid of. Tech Decks, "Dont Listen To Cataclysmic Abyss" T shirts, stickers, Pig Wheels, and maybe even some decks. I want to know who is Foundations biggest fan. Lets see what you can come up with. I want to see tattoos, rooms decked out in F product, moms wearing F tube tops, you're car plastered with stickers, old Foundation boards that you saved, etc etc etc. No Limits on this contest. Whoever shows that they're Foundations biggest fan wins. Top 5 get a box of stuff sent to there house. You have until the 20th of this month. Thats like 6 days. And i'll be posting them as they come in, if worthy. Send in pictures to caca@tumyeto.net
Matt B looks over his shoulder and into the future, where he sees trips to Black Box for the TF of Doom and selected skate voyages to get his next part in line. He's all growed up.
Sierra and David are at it again. This time they made it out of the Colorado park and into the streets.
Mike showing off his new board - Rusczyk Differnt Feather 2.0
Grif shot some Polaroids of my lame costume, and me doing a weird ollie in California...
While skating in Barcy, Billy and Johnny came across a fatally wounded pigeon in the grass. Bilbo, always eager for chaos of any kind, plucked the ailing bird from its habitat and escorted it around the spot on his board. Then it died. (edited by Ed T who was there, and Billy didn't kill it.)
Duffel in New Mexico i think...
What do you ride?
Inspired by the hit Rob Dyrdek sit com/reality show, Toy Machine has produced a pilot for MTV with Ed and his best friend. One is a world famous artist/skateboarder, the other barfs on everything and kills his compatriots. Odd couple indeed...
The Butcher is caught here in a rare moment of rest. He's currently in Spain with half of his next video part already done. As sure as the sun rises, Diego gets a trick daily.
Keep checking Suffer The Joy, you never know when he next clip will be up this week...
Thanks Tech Dech. Check the slideshow for more pictures.

Did I mention that suffer the joy makes a great gift this Christmas?
I took this awhile ago. Waited a bit to post it. Everyone took turns posing with the gun. Here's Gareth and Corey.
Tommy posing for Angel in this morning photo.
Josh is telling you (yes, YOU) to Suffer The Joy and watch Matt B rip it up. Please don't make Harm angry. Just do as he says, for your own sake...
Thanks for the support skaters from Antwerp!
This is Austin. That is all for today.
Don't forget to Suffer The Joy.
Make him feel better by entering his letter writing contest.
After separating his shoulder and fixing up the homestead, Josh hasn't had much time on the board, not that you'd know by the way he skated the Plastic Park yesterday. Yeesh, this guy is an animal!
Oh yeah, don't forget to check the Cutting Room Floor over at Suffer The Joy.

Gareth and Grant with equally weird t shirts. Hey I'm sure the San Diego Zoo will have you're photo incentive checks out soon.
Heres a shot of Sierra Fellers in Poland. I'm not too sure what's up with the kids shirt in the background that says cash. Because seems like kind of a coincidence that Sierra just happend to win thousands of dollars while there.
...are the ones in between.
Bennett sees the world through rose-tinted glasses. That might explain how he kills his hometown park so effectively. For a sample of one day of rippitude, check Suffer The Joy, website NOW.
I have a ton of tech decks sitting on my desk. Even 4 packs of tech decks. I'm thinking about having a contest to win some autographed ones. I was thinking about having a mini golf challenge and the winner with the lowest score that sends in a image of there computer screen wins. But i think you would all cheat and photoshop some shit. Oh well I'll think of something. In the mean time, here you go again. And you're welcome...
luuuckkyyy
Fiberlam board construction is also in stock now. Gareth rocks out with one here.
Tommy came in to grab some boards and the Foundation Keep On Rolling Box set. Here he is checking it out.
...now enter his letter writing contest.
Johnny's getting better. He can be heard skating to the store on a daily basis. Healing like an iron-man.
Meza, the vids are in the mail (although I doubt you look at this site).
Happy one, John!
Josh is moving on up. He just bought a house and has become an obsessed Bob Villa-type.
Metro board shop has a pretty epic mini ramp in there shop. The Foundation guys skated it a couple times recently. Before I took the ramp pic I made sure my camera was extra dirty to get the ultimate artsy shot. Or i was just blowing it, either or.
A old photo of Slash and Ragdoll. This was taken right before they went on a trip to Arizona.
The Foundation ams relaxing after skating a mini ramp.
We needed to do some research for our KOTR challenge in Shreveport?
I am off to Belgium, lets hope Kevin updates the website every day to keep stringing the loyal pawns back to our web of subliminal messages and marketing misdeeds...
We need the eyes!
As Austin reflects on his recent video victory, he ponders the future and where it will take him. SF, LA, Paris, Australia, maybe all of the above. The adventure never stops.
Every once in awhile Adrian comes in to raid the warehouse. Looks like he came up on the new Jason Adams wheel. Look for Adrian soon, he will be going on a month long Creature trip leading up to Tampa Am.
so we came up on 4 remote control airplanes the other night. First try with the damn thing yesterday it flew on a neighbors roof next to Tum Yeto. Bummer. But luckily it fell off 8 hours later and i got it back. Today we're gonna battle them i guess.
