The Tuesday 25 with Cairo Foster

1. City for skating:
Back then it'd be SF. Nowadays, it'd have to be pretty much any major downtown metropolis. Just as long as I can hit the streets w/o too much hassle for security, cops, building owners, etc.

2. Pro skater when you were a kid:
I was backing Rick Howard, pretty heavily back then, and still to this day, he's on the list.

3. Actor/Actress:
No idea.

5. Skatepark:
Yeah, about those. I'm having a difficult time finding one of these that I could classify as a favorite. As long as I'm rolling with the homies, it's all good.





6. Place you’ve lived:
Egypt. Had I never lived there, I wouldn't be doing what I'm up to.

7. Question you get asked at a demo:
How do you go pro? How do you get sponsored? Got any free stuff? Wanna play SKATE?

8. Restaurant:
Most any taqueria in SF.

9. Quote:
Don't quote me.





10. Sports Team:
This is skateboarding, right?

11. Vacation destination:
Afghanistan.

12. Skate shoe:
New Howards, that are kind of a throwback to the DC days, until my new shoe hits the store next year. That's a while from now, but I'm looking forward to having a midtop.

13. Beverage:
Depends how the day went. But a glass of sweet tea will do nicely.

14. Food:
Super sized health food.

15. Childhood memory:
Anything that had to do with skateboarding. Blah.

16. Skate trip memory:
Pete Thompson picking up a piglet that kicked mud on his white Ezekiel swishy shorts on a cross-country trip for TWS. That was a long ass time ago. Back in 'Nam.

17. Place traveled:
Afghanistan, Vietnam, Israel (damn the hummus was good there)

18. TV show:
I'd have to say it's my new show.

19. Flavor milkshake:
Black and white

20. Song:
Something poetic

21. Video part:
Matt Hensley in Shackle Me Not.

22. Movie:
Not really. Uhm, I saw this documentary about Edward Burtynsky. Manufactured Landscapes. That was good, but really, I'd prefer to chuck my TV into hell.

23. Skate web site:
I wish we could all remember the days when computers didn't exist.

24. Non-skate, non-porn website:
See number 23. Try speaking w/ someone new today.

25. Thing about skateboarding
Remember that it's all fundamental. Push + Roll + Slam = Fun
