INTERVIEW WITH RYAN DECENZO

Darkstar’s Ryanb Decenzo will be touring through South Africa on the African Vacation tour from 23 September to 4 October. Catch him on the Transworld “Hallelujah” video this weekend at the screenings at Revolution Festival Mall, Revolution Pavillion and Sport Unlimited in Cape Town. We sent him some questions about his upcoming travels to SA…

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 defiantly never thought I would travel to Africa for skating. The other crazy countries I’ve toured so far would be Panama, Philippines and Tahiti.

Have you seen or heard anything about the skateboarding and spots around South Africa?
I haven’t really heard anything about the skate scene I SA, other than there are people who skate out there… and that there must be spots because it’s a fairly developed country.
 
What are you looking forward to most about coming to tour here?
I’m looking forward to exploring the city and culture of SA as well as checking out the skate scene, skate spots and hanging with some people over there!

Have you been doing much other touring or filming lately? If so, please fill us in.
I’ve been doing some touring just mostly north America lately for the Dew Tour contest and events that my sponsors are putting on. I’m also filming street stuff for the upcoming Bones video, Busy Busy!
 
If you could choose to be eaten by a shark or a lion which would it be and why?
I would rather be eaten by a shark because I would die faster in the water and it would be less painful.
