Chad Bartie hails from Down Undah‹Gold Coast, Australia, to be exact. This strapping young lad is full of energy on and off his skateboard. He's been traveling the last two years: half his time in Australia and half in California, logging lots of time on his skateboard. Not afriad to attack anything with his favorite Foundation board, Chad rips on transitions, but destroys everything else. Although he's new to the Foundation team, he's already turned lots of heads with his (opening) part in the Physics video "Dream Reality." Watch for a 411 Wheels of Fortune at the end of '97, and a dominating part in the new Foundation video, which will hit the streets in early 1998!
