You saying you would turn down free shit? As long as I didn't have to do something gay I'm sure I would stack the sponsors like a fiend

Damn, I wish had so many sponsor, no need to work and Im set for life, or till mid 30 at least, that would be cool but I have none. I wonder why theotis has so many sponsors, he just turned pro, never won a major event and had one full video part, is it just because he is too damn nice ?

Yes, I would definitely turn down free shit so I don't look like a kook hawking and wearing cheap shit made in China and other third world countries like Meister watches, stance socks, neff, and Markisa, etc....

this "he's nice" thing is as lame as skull graphics in the early 90's. andy roy wasn't a nice person and it was sick. i think theotis is a dumb idiot that doesn't register the pain of sitting in a car with p'rod(or who ever) for 3 hours driving to some crappy ledge listening to all the trials and tribulations of having a massive ego. he just sits there saying "yeah" and "your the greatest p'rod".... ironically his name sells "stupid" amounts of product. he feels like the flame boy of this new era

already happened...jordan flipsyde and the jordan 1 PHAT.
and theotis is doing good, the more free shit the better, than means less shit he has to buy and even more money stacked ontop of the pay checks.
its not quantity of sponsors quality. id take mountain dew over a lesser board company anyday...

If I grew up with next to nothing and had an opportunity to better my life like Theo I wouldn't hesitate to take most deals companies would throw at me. When you have a fam/mom you have to take care of and worry about you would do the same thing. If it wasn't for most of these sponsors most skaters wouldn't be able to skate as much as they do since they would have to get a 9-5.

Almost all of you who bitch about this kinda stuff would accept any of these sponsorships in a heartbeat.
Prove me wrong.

You're truly an idiot if you're gonna mention "cheap shit made in China" and not have Nike on top of that list, and who gives a rats ass how many sponsors he has. At least the ones he has have legit skate teams and take Theotis and the rest of their teams traveling.

I can't believe skaters accept sponsorship from Oakley.
Maybe some of you are too young to remember this, but Oakley blades were THE sunglasses of choice for rollerbladers.

He would be wearing the ASHBURY sunglasses. That is what they do. This thread is dumb.
I've never heard of Markisa, and I'm not really concerned.

shoes, board, clothing. all the other shit you should be able to buy yourself or find somehow; if you're in the industry i bet it isn't too hard to come up on a new pair of trucks or wheels every now and then

So you are saying if someone is on a board company like baker, they should buy their own indys? That makes little sense.
