For many years the name of Cezar Iliescu aka Cezarica is shouted at the most important competitions in the country. The style and the ampleness of his tricks make you realize immediately that he really loves what he does. Interview, pictures and videos!

Yo Cezarica what's up?
Hi bro!

How old are you and how many years ago you started skateboarding?
I'm the old kid of 23 years old and I have almost a decade of skateboarding.

The winter is coming! How was it before Industrial Skatepark Fabrica? We know you had a solid contribution at building it, please tell us more!
The winte is the harshest period within a skater's life. I remember how much we were enduring cold with layers of furs over me trying to skate in the most painful conditions.
The only motivation I had was simply having an uninterrupted skate life. Now many are ungrateful and do not really appreciate the conditions ... conditions.
My involvement in Industrial Skatepark at Fabrica project was motivated by the requirement for an indoor skatepark in Romania, as the sport significantly evolves.

Who were you skating with and where? Who do you skate with now?
At first I didn't event had an idea about the sport and I started with some forgotten names in time and space of skateboarding.
My favourite spots were and still are Military Academy and Tunuri.

Sponsors?
Monster Energy Romania, Globe shoes, Old School skateshop and Bodega Eyewear. Because Bodega is what "Eyewear".

You ollied the huge double set from Carol Park!!! We know you were the first one! Have you ever thought trying a kickflip?
I had many ideas in my head but with time passing I sealed my fate.


What's your current setup?
I generally ride 8 inch decks and sometimes 8,125. Trucks 8 / 8.125 and 53 / 54 rock solid wheels.

A skate spot within Romania you haven't skated yet but you would like to?
There are several spots in Romania which I hadn't skated yet but I'm sure that the following years I'll have the opportunity to skate everywhere.

Favourite tricks and tricks you're having problems with?
I don't know if there are any tricks having problems with but I like the ones with harsh demands.

Skaters who inspires you?
$$ Paid skaters $$


The worst injury?
I fractured my nasal pyramid.

A contest that you always had stuck in your mind over the years?
The contest I enjoyed most was South Fest (skatepark Eroilor)

Few words about Bart? Who is he? What's up with him? What should the kids know about him?
About Bart I can only say that I know him for a long time in the Romanian skateboarding scene and he still pursues his interests ... successfully. Respect Bart!

How and where do you see yourself in 10 years from now? Do we pass over 2012?
Surely we won't pass 2012 and I think I'll be somewhere between truth and reality.

The best thing about this sport?
The best thing about this sport is that ... I'm a skater.

What other entertainment do you have besides skate? What do you do when you're not skating?
I usually spend my time outside this sport, with various unnecessary activities, but nourishing for the spirit.

Sfat pentru incepatori?
Stay chill, you'll land it :)
