Mike Mo on DC

[Hatechild]

Pretty much a done deal...just waiting for his Lakai contract to end.

[Bubblegum Tate]

Supposed to be by Holidays.

[Made In China]

Fuck, DC is stacking their team. Now if they start making better shoes instead of that shit they call skate shoes.

[No Thanks.]

No surprises here.  I'm predicting Nyjah will be on by the time Street League is over, Torey will be on once Lakai fully leaves Podium and DVS fully reinvests all its money in producing the "Enduro" shoe for CCS/Journeys/PacSun, Sheckler will probably be offered an amount Etnies can't afford to match, and we all know that Shane will be jumping once his contract is up as well.  So 9 out of 10 of last week finalists at Street League are already on or primed to join DC within the next year.  The funniest part is that having all of these riders will not increase their shoe sales one bit.

There last good shoes I remeber where the linx and some early kalis models, since then its been a straight downfall as materials, skateability and design

[SFblah]

I could see any of the Sole Tech guys going. Been hearing they are having some major money issues.

I'm pretty sure Lakai is fully under Crailtap distribution now...  eggxactly why DC produced a flag as their latest banner!  They're trying to emphasize on how dominant they are within the skate world by breaching other team riders ha

[svilleantigo]

Yep, still won't buy em

[BraveUlysses]

DC getting all of these people to show how dominant they are reminds me of the Cold War.

[Tyroneshoelaces]

i don't think there is any worse shoes to skate in than lakai.  i really like the company but every pair i had was pretty shit.   good for him.  get that cash.

[Russel Crowe]

DC is still lame

[Matty T]

Okay.  I have no choice but to put up with Nike, Cons, and Adidas making every new kid that drops a video part look like they're wearing a uniform.  At least the Janoskis, CVO's and Campus are easy on the eyes.  But god damn DC has produced eye sores for so long that it makes Chris Cole look like he picks up his shit from the discount shoe wall at Active.  If you're gonna make something ubiquitous, at least make it attractive.  Quit spending your money on god damned pros that don't fit your aesthetic and put some money into making a shoe that doesn't make my penis retract.  Oh. And the only noteworthy DC ever did after its Love Park glory days was actually making me NOT want to buy PJ Ladd's pro model.  So, in the very worst sense possible, they have succeeded at a challenge previously thought impossible. 

[Swanson]

god skateboarding is turning into a fucking joke... like a god damn government...
buying out all the money makers so in the future you have no choice but to support shit
what a fucking joke this year of sponsorship has been... jesus fucking christ fucking stupid

[Nydoggular]

Fuck this is wack. Fuck DC and their money grubbing corporation.

[kellen]

Don't really care;  I stopped buying their shit after the DC Lynx ended.

[geoff]

i almost bought some dcs from ross today, they were actually pretty cool, 30 bucks too. but i didnt think they would skate well.
but yeah, dc blows

[o JayCub o]

I know a lot of people hate on what DC has become, and I dont really like the fact that they are buying themselves an allstar line up, and kicking people like Pj off. But everyone saying they only make shit shoes need to skate a pair of the Toniks, I bought a pair cause they were on sale for $20 and they are holding up well, and skate really good also. Theres also a few other models they have out that dont look bad either. The Bristols and landaus, both look like they would be good to skate. I mean there are other companies that I would rather support like Fallen, Lakai, and emerica. Its just hard to support them when the last couple pairs of lakais I have bought have basically fallen apart at the seams, and I bought a pair of fallen fortes recently and they skated really awesome until the sole started falling to pieces, but that was my first pair of fallens so maybe I just got a bum pair or something.

[Chipper]

Oh how I miss those.

[VictoriousOG]

I thought this was just a rumor because they mixed up Nick Dompierre with Mike Mo.

The Tonik S is a good selling shoe

[DGKALIS]

lol.... you guys are funny. 

[Chipper]

lol.... you guys are funny. 

Lynx come back?

[thepman]

i think you could make any thread right now claiming any pro skater to be on DC and people will believe it.

if you could choose from every skate shoe currently available (being an unsponsored skater) i dont see a single reason why i should choose any DC shoe. Its like that with so many companies, YES of course the make a couple of decent looking shoes, but they all look like each other. black, vulc, low profile. why not get the original or something that sticks out like the janoski, the cts pro, the campus or an old skool. if the tonic werent on sale, would you really buy it??

[Toivo]

Adidas still has the best skate team and the best skate shoe.

[asakusa75]

[Hercules Rockefeller]
