INTERVIEW WITH ANDREW BROPHY

Cliché and DVS’ Andrew Brophy will be touring South Africa this September as part of the African Vacation skate tour. We hit him up with some questions to see how he’s feeling about the trip…

Did you ever think you’d go so far as touring in South Africa? What are some of the other crazy countries you’ve toured in so far?
I was hoping that I would make it to South Africa on a skate trip, my mum and dad have been there, and some of my friends from London are from SA and there fu*kin the best. As for other countries that were crazy, I would have to say Russia because of the crazy background they come from. It was a amazing place though.

Have you seen or heard anything about the skateboarding and spots around South Africa?
Someone in London was telling me that downtown Joburg has some good spots and Jason Dill had some footage down there too, but I dont really know any spots.
 
What are you looking forward to most about coming to tour here?
Meeting some people, doing a safari and being in South Africa.
 
Have you been doing much other touring or filming lately? If so, please fill us in.
I just finished my Cliché commercial and now im filming a section for my upcoming pro shoe on DVS, so im going to be workin my ass off!!

If you could choose to be eaten by a shark or a lion which would it be and why?
I’ll take a shark please and hope to god it gets me good. I feel a lion is like a big cat and would probably play with you for a while, it wouldn’t be quick. Shit would suck eather way.
