Stand Up For Skate Parks!
Over 900 big wigs came out to the Tony Hawk Foundation's "Stand Up for Skateparks". Adio riders Brian Sumner, Kenny Anderson and Joey Brezinski did a private demo for VIP's including Lisa Kudrow, Marlee Matlin, Jon Fogerty, Michael Rappoport, Anthony Kiedis and Flea of the Red Hot Chili Peppers, and Jacob Dylan of the Wallflowers. Tony Hawk and friends skated the vert ramp, while every person who came to the Adio booth walked away with a free pair of shoes! For more info and pictures got to adiofootwear.com
