Zoo York cuts skate team?

[Ronald Wilson Reagan]

I would cry tears of joy if Westgate ended up on Real. Have you seen his SF footage in those emerica parts? Imagine regular trips out to San Francisco and regular coverage of him skating the hill spots there. That's really all I would need. The entire rest of the skateboard industry could disappear overnight, and as long as I was getting regular new Westgate SF footage I would be happy.

So, does Chaz go to plan b, or element?

[Upgrayedd]

Chaz starts his own company, "Steeze Skates", it folds within 3 working hours, he promptly leaves the industry.

[asakusa75]

Not saying Huf should retire, but if he did Westgate should get on Real and replace him as the enormous ollie dude. And for the record I am a massive Huf fan.

Darkstar or World

[clamy]

nah, he's going to selfish where he and his teammates try one up each other for the shittiest tattoo.

[cookieboy]

I would love to see westgate on toy machine.

[spool of cord]

Eli on Hopps would be dope

[TheDonutFather]

Does Westgate going back to 5boro not make sense to anyone? I'm surprised they haven't been suggested yet.

[Seamus_McShamebag]

Steve Olson interviewed Andy Kessler in Juice magazine a few years back and I remember thinking Andy's take on Zoo York was little a harsh.  Sounds like Olson was spot on with the "soulless kooks" comment.

[ekayallday]

no one sees them trying to start something up?

[sufodiv]

If chaz doesn't stay on i'm guessing he will either go to plan b or element. But then again I don't really care what happens to him

Just thought of that myself. Because it's sure as hell better than where he is at now.

I mean, who else would want to be stuck in a team with chaz ortiz.

[shit_for_brains]

no disrespect to 5boro, but westgate is a little out of their league at this point.

[brianwilson]

Yeah it might be taking a little step back, but he has to get out of zoo.

[Lordata]

Wesgate on Toy.

Eli Reed to planB or Expedition.

Donny Barley back to Toy.

Zered to the Expedition or Selfish??? haha. expedition.

[Joust Ostrich]

Chaz starts his own company, "Steeze Skates", it folds within 3 working hours, he promptly leaves the industry.

This would be great.  He may become the next Seaholm.

Suski to 5boro maybe, not Westgate.

Westgate on Habitat makes sense to me.  Him, Silas, and Gilette would be a solid trio.

I hope this news doesn't surprise anyone.  Also, the guy in the video, please focus your bong.  Your brain can't handle any more.

[goosey]

i seriously heard that ortiz is about to enter the rap game

[sleepypancakes]

Wesgate on Toy.

Eli Reed to planB or Expedition.

Donny Barley back to Toy.

Zered to the Expedition or Selfish??? haha. expedition.

Donny Barley works for Element in an office now and had like a legacy board or something for them. Westgate should go to Real or Toy. Zered is perfect for Expedition. Or even Cliche in my mind along side Eldridge. Eli won't go to Hopps, even though that would be the sickest thing in a long time, Jahmal doesn't have the money to pay Eli right now. Hope Hopps keeps growing though.

On a side note, did anyone read Steeze Ortiz's interview in the newest thrasher? I finished Josh Borden's stoked and was hoping for another sick one until I saw his name, some golden quotes for your brians

Dan Z: "So what's this video part that you're working on? Who's it for?"
Chaz: "It'll probably be for a Zoo York thing."
Dan Z: "Is anyone else going to be in it?"
Chaz: "No"

Dan Z: "How many contest wins did it take to buy your Benz?"
Chaz: "Like, one"

I can't convey his complete douchiness here. Get the mag and hurt your brain a little.

Dude, I just read that over lunch.  There was a TON of douchiness in that whole interview.

dude doesn't know how to do interviews...


Small children respond to cockiness by purchasing things

[Brown Thunder]

Eli Reed on palace please and thanks

[The Ghost of Lenny Kirk]

Lol i swear this feels like an nba draft/trade deal

Realistically:

Westgate on baker after his contract expires through emerica because baker seems to be on a hunt for new riders. Him on toy would be great if ed templeton makes a case for him though.

Stereo is definitely going to try and pick up one of these guys. Ron deily is probably the easiest pickup. He costs the least out of the group who left. Aaron suski would be a good option too. Hes no longer based in new york anyways.

Deily on traffic would be cool.

Zered is out a shoe deal too so he might get picked up by habitat if he decides to do both programs. If the moneys right. It would be the best fit for him.

Eli reed would be sick on plan b or chocolate but he would need a lot of good footy stacked for their respective videos. He does contests too. He would fit well on either krooked or real. Ideally what id like to see (although it would never happen) is him getting on traffic. He would give oyola a lot more spotlight with contests and hes generally out there doing shit.

Dave willis to palace. I also want to see him pull a terry kennedy and skate to his own rap.

Kevin tierney on coda seems to make a lot more sense.

Travis glover on organika?

[zt]

chaz ortiz on plan b

[MrMojoRising]

You guys are stupid. Zered said in a recent ESPN interview that they're cutting everyone BUT westgate and Chaz

Totally sweet first post.  I'd like to welcome you with a -1 for not reading.

[Wall of Nausea]

Just drop the "Zoo" and call the new company "Mike" York. Or Poo-york. yukkka yukka.

Some lame shit, I will now shit in the pair of Joe Boxers I don't own.

Things would of been different if the Paul Mitchell Group would of bought Zoo York when they had the chance.

[Ronald Wilson Reagan]

As soon as their contracts run out, what do you think is going to happen? They aren't renewing contracts, but aren't cutting people in the middle of theirs.

And people saying baker and Westgate...seriously? Imagine Brandon Westgate in the baker team van....not happening.
