April 15th '07 - MSN Interview - ANTHONY LEFFELAAR

15th April 2007

NZsnowboard.com: Aight, sup Anfernee. How's things?

Things are good brother. Just chilling at 'Super Park' in Colorado, USA. Homies are throwing down like crazy!

NZ: When did you get overseas?
Pretty late this year. Not till late Jan. I needed some sun so I hit up Aussie. Was good times.

NZ: And what have you been up to for the last 3 months?
I rolled into Whistler at the end of January then hooked up with Greg Roebucks around the Mt. Baker area with NZ shred dawg Neville Lapwood. I did a little filming then hooked up with Aussie Kieren and Ben Ryan from Reason films for his Aussie/NZ video project. It rained like crazy for a while so it was tough to get shit down and now we are at Super Park with Sapient Snowboards and then on Monday we off to Salt Lake City, Utah to hook up with the Brother Hood homies and then the Grenade Games.

NZ: Your all over the show. Been good times?
This season been fun for sure been travelling around to new spots and meeting new people

NZ: And your at Super Park now?? What's that all about?
Yeah we're at Super Park... Super parks pretty crazy man. Lots of top riders from around the world flock to hit the biggest and best jumps ever built like today there was a good 100 foot jump and Aussie sherd dawg Robbie Walker killed it with a frontside 1080 and Dan Briisse from USA did a double cork........... insane!!!! It's put on by Snowboarder Magazine and they have there photo crew hanging out there also.

NZ: Robbie walker just dominated at the Transworld Team Challange too. I hear Jacob Koia is over there. He beaten you up yet??
JK ain't here and that fool will never bet me up... maybe only on his snowboard. lol

NZ: Who would win in a mexican wrestling match. You or Mitchy 'Brother Bear' Brown?
Well I heard Mitchy got some sweet power moves and eats a lot of steak so we will just have to see this winter

NZ: Fair enough. Tell me about this Brotherhood stuff....
Brother Hood is a new street wear / outerwear label out of Salt Lake City, Utah. As you might see in their ads in Transworld Snowboard Magazine it's influenced by hiphop. There is no real hiphop high quality fashion gears coming out of snowboarding so Pat the homie who started it wanted to bring high qulaity fashion to the snow homies who enjoy to rock that shit..


NZ: And you've been filming with them??
At the moment I am filming with Bugs (Ben Ryan) from Reason Films and anything that's worth going to them will... still working that shizz out dont have much good shots..

NZ: Is it true you have your own signature toy doll coming out??
um.... haha maybe

NZ: Could he do underflips?
Dam son. I haven't busted one of those sweet power moves in a year

NZ: I don't believe it. Anyways, apart from underflips what else is new in Anfernee's world?
In my world I'm just chilling enjoying the spring and hopfully will make it somewhere hot before the NZ winter

NZ: Whats the plan for NZ?
I have no plans for NZ. Will try and save as much money as possible so I can get a good rig for next winter over here.

NZ: I also hear you got some tattoo work done. Tell me a bit about how and why you got it?
I kind of planned to get one for a while. I got it done in Aussie. It didn't really hurt that much and there was no reason why I got it. I just like tattoos.

NZ: It says your last name 'Leffelaar'. I have enough trouble spelling it. Did you think the artist would kook it?
My good friend in Aussie got a few done at that same place so I knew it would be good. But yeah, it went through my mind for sure. Lol..

NZ: It's right down your forearm. Any reason for getting it done there??
No reason. Well, I have plans to do a few things on that arm around it but that's going to cost some coin so it will have to wait.

NZ: Like what?? Dragons, pink leopards in ski boots??
Next question

NZ: hahah. Would you trust me to give you a tattoo??
Hell no!! lol. its on ur body for life that shizz

NZ: I wouldn't trust me neither. You got any new tricks on lock??
Just working on being all round solid braa.

NZ: Fair enough. Last words and shoutouts?
Thanks to all my sponsors, friends and family for being the coolest people I know
