I really think this is the end of the line for him shoe sponsor wise.


Also, no more pro model for trapasso?

[theloniousmonk]

Trapasso 2 drops next month, he's already hittin it in em, by the looks of that video on his page.

[Beer Keg Peg Leg]

good work man, pretty sure this has only been posted 4 fucking times

[iwshilvdnfinland]

he deserves it.  don't wanna produce?  then you don't deserve that paper.

[Ronald Wilson Reagan]

I get the hate, but still like the stuff he's putting out now. I am still kind of hoping he'll come through with a part that is at least fun to watch in the Chocolate video. And let's not turn it into that argument, I get it, benches, he has almost nothing in things you would expect him to, some of the tricks he puts out aren't particularly tough. I get all of  that but still think some of the footage he puts out is fun to watch, like that (red) part.
Again, not starting a fight, just putting that perspective out there.

This is great news. Good footy 8423094809234 years ago doesn't warrant pro.

i like it all too.  but i think we can all argue that pops is hardly being "professional" coverage wise.  maybe he'll shock us in the chocolate video, but i'm not holding my breath.

i just want I.E. / Mosaic Pops back : (

I feel the same way, although the occasional clip or photo of his that surfaces can sometimes be a bit lackluster, I still enjoy his skating.  I am really looking forward to his Chocolate part, and judging ads and photos he's had there should be at least be a couple decent tricks in it.


I'm being overly optimistic in all likelihood, but I hope him getting kicked off motivates him to get out and do some shit.

[Ronald Wilson Reagan]

That's what I'm saying. I get how its not really professional or whatever, though at the same time skateboarding works in weird ways so its hard to define professional. I guess its more that I'm hoping for good things, as distant as the hope may be, and seeing this is a bummer in that sense. It doesn't bode well for "shutting the haters up"

[alonelikeastone]

NO MORE Ethan Fowler... DAMN ... bummer high alright... JASON JESSEE is on though... Awesome high!!!

I definitely agree with both posts.  I think we all want that I.E./Mosaic Pops back.

Is rediculously ironic for them to cut pops and add jason jesse. Id rather see 6 ollies a year than one frontside air every 10.

pappalardo and wenning should start their own shoe company

Looks like he's been hitting the streets a bit, always hyped on trapasso footy

[thepman]

Jessee gets way more coverage than pops. You've got to remember Jessee extends far wider than the skate world. Putting him on is a great move, give him a pro shoe and it will fly off the shelves.

I dont think somebody can make enough shoes for the amount of paper bags.

[The Ghost of Lenny Kirk]

Helll have a couple great tricks subdued by a lot of average to mediocre ones. 2 and a half minutes. Mostly annoying. He doesnt care. Why should i?

[sametelt]

I always thought his shoe sold good enough for Converse not to care about his lack of output. They should put Pontus fully on.
