Oskar posted a video of him with an Emerica shirt on today.

Looks like he’s also on Mountain Dew now too.
-
skating in some indicator highs. must be room since the boss is gonna bounce.
-
Good for Emerica, I can't imagine why Vans wouldn't try and keep him

Wait wait wait . What now?
-
People have been saying Reynolds is leaving Emerica for how long now? It's not happening.
I'm backing Winkowski on though if it's true. Wonder why Vans would never promote him from flow.
-
Also in the US Army.

He never made it past flow? Vans fucking blew it. Dude is so good and he's insanely marketable.
-
Winkowski is there to mentor the boss on his transition
-
I knew they would get a guy just like Herman to replace his spot.
-
this is the only interesting thing emerica has done in ages
-
He deserves to get paid fat, sadly doubt emerica will provide that
-
I wonder if emericas playing the long game? I think companies are waitin out until the olympics to see if they can grow back or not.
-
Ready for some Winkowski high tops.
-
vans not putting on winkowski shows how clueless they are to anything but contests and big rail skating.
-
Never heard of the dude
-
I thoroughly enjoy his skating.
Good for him & emerica.
-
Honestly a good move for emerica if it’s true
-
Renolds literally jut signed A new contract.
Sticking around for a few more years at least.
-
wet hot emerican summer baby
-
Never heard of the dude
You’ve been missing out dude is the sickest.
Vans isn’t the first to blow it with on Erick tho, first there was the welcome shit then when Santa Cruz finally gave him a board the first run was super small and it took them forever to get more out. Not to mention the popsicle they gave him just says fuckin 8ballr on it lol.
-
I remember seeing Reynolds post something along the lines of "best skate ever" in regards to WInkowski-I wouldn't be surprised if he didn't have a big hand in getting him on Emerica
-
I understand if Andrew leaves, but I hope so much they re-release the Reynolds 1 original before he goes.
-
i back it

you're a poet and you don't know it?

Vans was doing nothing for him so Reynolds swooped in and put him on. Reynolds ain't going nowhere. It's that simple.

would be cool to see more diversity on emerica - they've mostly had people from baker and toy machine
-
As stated above: this rules and vans slept hard.

Did any of you guys ever see the youtube video of Erick (when he was on welcome) going into the fridge at the berrics and taking out fruit in a tubberwear labeled Berra, then proceed to eat the fruit?
-
This legitimately makes me want to buy some emericas

Still so funny. I was having trouble finding it. Thank you
-
This must be some mistake. Winkowski isn't on either Baker Boys or Toy Machine.
-
Never heard of the dude
he seems to have impressive upper body strength. also he sat in the van smoking weed on his own when santa cruz came and did a demo at my local

id probably do the same if i was on tour with 10 10
-
he wasn't there luckily

I wonder how Erick feels about being on a team with Jason Jessee, considering his girlfriend is black. Seems like the kind of guy to not hold back and really speak his mind.

Also seems like the kind of guy to not be sure what planet he is on most of the time

Wasn't Jason Jessee suspended from SC and Cons? Or did I make that up? I kinda stopped following the saga tbh.

The most braindead skaters I know are the best handplanters I know. This can't be a coincidence.

indefinitely, but it’s probably over since he took that picture on the same couch as Al Davis

all of the blood rushing to the brain while they're inverted must be taking a toll.

shouldn't it be making him smarter though...
i know at least one person who like hangs himself on a board "to increase bloodflow to his brain"
at any rate he's still a fuckin rube

There should be a thread dedicated to taking all typos and word fuckups and attempting to use them in a sentence, or discuss their alternate meanings.
Tommy sat in the bath so long that the tubberwared him out, he was late to class so he couldn't get his DEG.

i knew something must be up when i watched him struggle to master the complexities of rock-paper-scissors in this game of skate

I moved to Seattle and started taking acid and mushrooms and all the drugs made me start seeing everything as a ramp.
If I'm on acid I'll go higher than I ever did and I will land it. I'm not scared of anything. I understand how everything works and that's pretty much it. I'm feeling the best. Mushrooms are pretty much the same thing but for a shorter time. Acid lasts a long time. Mushrooms are, like, 30 minutes and then you start to trip and can't skate. Last time I skated a vert ramp I did a bunch of ho-ho variations that I had never done and I was on mushrooms. But it seemed like I knew exactly how to do them.

Wait, drugs are fun?

Emerica just posted this flyer, blurred out dude with a fat tipped board. Gotta be Winkowskis first trip with the team.
-
Fat tipped board or master of perspective doing the illustration?
-
Dakota would make more sense though
hmmm

skating in some indicator highs. must be room since the boss is gonna bounce.
I don't have any reason to assume this of chipped tail in particular, but I get the general sense that people want Reynolds to leave emerica to justify their allegiance to corporate skate brands and bolster there "It isn't selling out, they're just trying to feed their families." arguments. In the meantime Reynolds stated that he bought a two million dollar house to help him get in shape for Stay Gold, which suggests Stella is eating fine. Also a lifetime of career choices suggests Reynolds backs the skater owned economy, New Era being a recent exception, but dude has genuinely been rocking them forever and hats aren't an integral aspect of skating in the ways shoes are. I am speculating of course, outside of once having bummed Reynolds a cigarette at Hubba I don't actually know the dude at all.
Winkowski is a great move, and suggests that they are doing well enough to take a risk on someone who isn't a long haired butt rocker. I do a handstand in any circumstance, much less on coping, and I'd definitely buy some Winkowskis.
-
They really need to branch out and sponsor more variety of skateboarders. I’d rather watch Winkowski invert than Victor Aceves do a nose grind down a handrail.

i pretty much agree with everything you said. just wanted to point out another exception (but then again, i guess there's no real "core" phone company out there. at least boost puts on skate contests?):

blurred out dude doesn't really look like Winkowski though, maybe Dakota? Could be a good trip to introduce him as on the team, he'd be so fucking lit. anybody else know any flow guys who might be going?
-
yea he looks like pixels, maybe it's super mario
-
Winkowski isn't dumb. He's, like, really good at sudoku. True story.

I wonder if emericas playing the long game? I think companies are waitin out until the olympics to see if they can grow back or not.
That just blew my mind. Never occurred to me that some brands would be specifically diversifying their riders between street/vert to get seats in different categories specifically for the olympics. The day that skateboarding turns into something the size of soccer of basketball is the day I can finally tell my friends and family to go fuck themselves because I'm watching the playoffs.
He definitely deserves to get some Fuck You money from the big 4 (Vans, Nike, Adidas or Cons). I'm more into street but the fact he skates those boards and pulls off the shit he does blows my mind.
Edit: TLDR- My fucking mind is blown.
-
Don’t forget eniz left emerica recently too leaving a little more room for both Dakota and winkowskI, both are great fits for the team, and kader bounsed ( I’m sure someone mentioned that already)
