In decembrie 2009, riderii DVS: Chico Brenes, Daniel Castillo, Kenny Hoyle, Zered Bassett, Jeron Wilson, şi Torey Pudwill au calatorit in Filipine pentru un skate tour. Nici nu au avut idee ca aceasta calatorie se va dovedi a fi una din cele mai salbatice aventuri. Nu numai că veteranul DVS pro Daniel Castillo a facut impresie la unele dintre cele mai bune spoturi din ţara natală, dar si restul echipei a trait experienta Filipinelor in toata splendoare ei. De la demouri in jungla la calatorii escortate de politie pana la cele mai epice spoturi si mancaruri bizare, echipa DVS a ramas cu niste amintiri din acest tur pe care nu le vor uita curand.

What skating videos do you like the most? Which skater? And why?
I like watching older videos, but i can appreciate videos from any era. it’s amazing to see the progression in street skating during the early 90’s. im most inspired by dudes like marc johnson, kenny anderson, mike carroll, rick howard, eric koston lavar mcbride, daewon song, jovantae turner, colin commito and guy mariano. each of those dudes have contributed a lot to skating in my opinion.

Which are the most important contests you have participated in? Best results?
I skated in an amatuer redbull manny mania contest that was really fun. it was more of a big session on some crazy obstacles than a contest. i had a great time at that.

Which is the most important thing when you skate?
Water. it sucks when you’re at the session without a gallon of water

Have you ever heard of any romanian skater? and if so, whats your opinion?
I’ve never heard of anybody from out there. it’s always interesting to see skaters from other parts of the world because most of the time the architecture is very different and its intriguing to see how each skater adapts to it.

Last question, whats your advice to the youth of skateboarding?
Ss cliche as this is, have fun. only skate as much as you want to, if you’re not having fun then don’t skate.
