If Blood Wizard is too corporate for Jerry then Im not sure there is anything out there for him. he seems too old to be pissing on his pro model. where is he gonna go pro now? my guess is nobody picks him ups so he tries to start his own board company. will Jerry take the Throne shape decks with him, or does BW own the shape and is gonna rename it the Mutineer.

Jerry gave me a ride to SFO one time... We had a 2 hour trip and it was out of his way. We had a seriously rad talk the entire way. He was ripping the whole time we skated and seemed like he had a solid outlook on skateboarding. For a year or so I wondered what had happened to him and then "metal" Jerry surfaced. He went on his own path and I can't fault him for that.... It's a bummer when things spiral out of control for people, I hope he gets back to it and starts ripping again because he was an animal!

thats what i'm trying to figure out if he's talking about senn or toad or both of them.
BOTH have other jobs. Senn does like fishing expeditions or something in Hawaii, and Toad is an electrician or whatever that other dude said.
Toad is rad and a legend and used to put on the greatest event in skateboarding (chili bowl).
Senn is a legend and SOTY.
Both have to work other jobs to get their organic veggies.
The fact that Jerry thinks he deserves to get by only from the income he gets from that company when those guys can’t is ridiculous.
Worth noting: a friend of mine from SD recently told
me Nick Merlino works in a grocery store to get by. That dude has pulled some epic shit and rides for a much more well-established brand.
The fact is, most pros don’t get by on board company salaries- including the rich ones who get much more money from shoe, clothing, and energy drink people.
To me it sounds like reality hit Jerry that he wasn’t buying a mansion with blood wizard royalties, and rather than face reality and make changes he needed to in order to survive, he lashed out at the people who can’t pay him what he wishes he could get.
The reality will set in though. Here’s the thing: people upset with being underpaid at a job who are worth more get other options and take them, they don’t quit with an angry public letter and no new sponsor. Aaron Herrington didn’t decide Blood Wizard wasn’t good enough and decide to publicly angrily quit without another sponsor, he just ended up on Polar because he liked that opportunity more. Happens all the time with other pros as they outgrow small sponsors. Usually “you don’t pay me enough I’m worth more you greedy assholes!” doesn’t go well. Ask Keelan Dadd or (allegedly) Brian Emmers
Also, if Toad owns a multimillion dollar property in SF, I wouldn’t be shocked if the dude bought before the boom. I have a friend whose parents sold a house in Potrero Hill (sf neighborhood) for like $2.7 million that they bought for under $100k in the 90’s. Back then being near projects and a short walk from 24th st. brought the price down...not anymore!

toad has his own electrical contracting business for a LONG time.  anywhere he lives is because of the money he's made working his ass off, not from Blood Wizard.  If you think he lives in a "mansion" because of BW, you're as delusional as Jerry.
[close]

thats what i'm trying to figure out if he's talking about senn or toad or both of them.
[close]
BOTH have other jobs. Senn does like fishing expeditions or something in Hawaii, and Toad is an electrician or whatever that other dude said.
Toad is rad and a legend and used to put on the greatest event in skateboarding (chili bowl).
Senn is a legend and SOTY.
Both have to work other jobs to get their organic veggies.
The fact that Jerry thinks he deserves to get by only from the income he gets from that company when those guys can’t is ridiculous.
Worth noting: a friend of mine from SD recently told
me Nick Merlino works in a grocery store to get by. That dude has pulled some epic shit and rides for a much more well-established brand.
The fact is, most pros don’t get by on board company salaries- including the rich ones who get much more money from shoe, clothing, and energy drink people.
To me it sounds like reality hit Jerry that he wasn’t buying a mansion with blood wizard royalties, and rather than face reality and make changes he needed to in order to survive, he lashed out at the people who can’t pay him what he wishes he could get.
The reality will set in though. Here’s the thing: people upset with being underpaid at a job who are worth more get other options and take them, they don’t quit with an angry public letter and no new sponsor. Aaron Herrington didn’t decide Blood Wizard wasn’t good enough and decide to publicly angrily quit without another sponsor, he just ended up on Polar because he liked that opportunity more. Happens all the time with other pros as they outgrow small sponsors. Usually “you don’t pay me enough I’m worth more you greedy assholes!” doesn’t go well. Ask Keelan Dadd or (allegedly) Brian Emmers
Also, if Toad owns a multimillion dollar property in SF, I wouldn’t be shocked if the dude bought before the boom. I have a friend whose parents sold a house in Potrero Hill (sf neighborhood) for like $2.7 million that they bought for under $100k in the 90’s. Back then being near projects and a short walk from 24th st. brought the price down...not anymore!

Gip, please, shut the fuck up. You don't need to act like you know exactly what is going on in every situation. I grew up skating with some of the Blood Wizard pros, and I'm not going to share specifics, but riders are getting fucked.

I'm not defending Gurney's response, but whoever said he's making $700 a month is an idiot. Also, yea, Merlino and all of Foundation is getting fucked over. I guarantee Sincalair's salary is more than the whole team makes while he still works for Nike. That has nothing to do with the riders but the upper management, which is the same as Blood Wizard.

But, but, he bought before the boom! Fuck off Gipper. You just look for controversy to share your bullshit opinions.

This. Gip, your opinion isn't worth anything.

Fucked over? How much money do you think blood wizard is raking in? Does your friend do the books at blood wizard or just complain he doesn’t make as much as he deserves? Idiot. Do you think all of these companies have all sorts of money that they are just hiding? You have zero evidence anybody is getting fucked over, there just ain’t that much money in going pro for a tiny brand whose owners have main jobs aside from this project.
And you aren’t the only one who knows blood wizard pros, just apparently the ones who expect to get rich off of blood wizard checks.
If your friends are “getting fucked” they should just go get paid properly for their talent with all of those other offers coming in at market rate, right? I mean, with all the openings for “guy to get paid to ride a skateboard” out there, clearly blood wizard isn’t paying enough to keep them around.
I never claimed to know it all, but the whole situation has been insanely public and its not hard to figure out that in a situation where a dude publicly quits a sponsor for “fucking him over” and has no other real sponsors that he probably shouldn’t talk shit to the only people WILLING TO PAY HIM TO RIDE A SKATEBOARD.
Just a thought.

He’s not just ‘getting paid to ride a skateboard’, he’s getting paid to SELL skateboards. That means cultivating a following, putting out parts, and trying to set himself apart from a ton of other pros.

As such, if he isn’t being paid a proportionate amount to what is being sold, then there is s problem.

None of us have those details, so it’s hard to judge.

All these problems, the industry ‘protecting’ problematic pros, sweatshop labor, non-skate corporations coming in to milk the scene, boards meant to break in a month, are all connected to the way we’ve been taught to believe that we need to get away with anything we can, as long as it turns a profit.

It would be nice if dudes like Gurney, and every other pissed off pro went in to build something more cooperative and less exploitive. I’d fucking back that with my cash.

Lemme clear a couple of things up for you guys who really are uninformed, yet making statements like you know.

* Chris Senn is NOT an owner in BW.  It's Toad and Justin.  Both have had lucrative employment WAY before they ever started BW and have used their own money at times when board sales weren't generating enough to keep things going. 

* Toad's house is NOT in San francisco

* The median price for a home the Bay Area is $935,000.  That's NOT a mansion.  That's an average home.

* Toad will ALWAYS be a better skateboarder than Jerry Gurney ever will be.

None of us have those details, so it’s hard to judge.

All these problems, the industry ‘protecting’ problematic pros, sweatshop labor, non-skate corporations coming in to milk the scene, boards meant to break in a month, are all connected to the way we’ve been taught to believe that we need to get away with anything we can, as long as it turns a profit.

It would be nice if dudes like Gurney, and every other pissed off pro went in to build something more cooperative and less exploitive. I’d fucking back that with my cash.
Lol, are you just finding out about how capitalism works? If he isn’t being paid proportional to what is being sold it just means he doesn’t own the company. You need to google “surplus labor,” because its literally the foundation of our economic system.
And again, lets go over how salary prices work: an employer/contractor offers an employee a certain amount of money for a task or job. The employee decides whether or not to take that job. If he says yes, the salary is set, if he says no, the employer either offers more or the employee looks for other opportunities. If the potential employee can not find other opportunities, then the highest potential salary is their worth. If Jerry gets on another company for more money, he was right that he deserved more. If he doesn’t, then blood wizard wasn’t screwing him.
Lemme clear a couple of things up for you guys who really are uninformed, yet making statements like you know.

* Chris Senn is NOT an owner in BW.  It's Toad and Justin.  Both have had lucrative employment WAY before they ever started BW and have used their own money at times when board sales weren't generating enough to keep things going. 

* Toad's house is NOT in San francisco

* The median price for a home the Bay Area is $935,000.  That's NOT a mansion.  That's an average home.

* Toad will ALWAYS be a better skateboarder than Jerry Gurney ever will be.
I didn’t think Senn was an owner, thanks for clearing that up.
100% agreed on Toad>Gurney
How dare those greedy bastards sink their own money into BW! Jerry’s right, what greedy assholes

She says that he would do anything for money and at a party he actually licked another guy's asshole for $11.

Irrelevant, and yet Oddity was the best deck company video I've seen in years and I still watch it regularly. Been buying Foundation ever since. Although I was strictly Toy Machine before that, so it wasn't much of a switch. I hope KOTR gives them a boost. Was hoping they'd win the thing, but they've been losing a lot of easy points so far over stupid shit like not being able to pee or eat a burrito.

Jerry could have worked a part/full time job for extra cash and health benefits, while earning his $700 a month from Bloodwizard.  And he surely was receiving big boxes of product each month....which could have earned him an extra $200 or $300 dollars.  He most likely could have made ends meet without too much stress, if he had just played his cards right.

Seems like a bad fit for a guy who's sober. In fact I am pretty confused about the whole weed thing. I was pretty certain he only smokes cigarettes these days yet his Devil's Lettuce page claims he's a daily stoner.

I still think the funniest Gurney story I’ve read on here was that he showed up to a contest and just bonelessed every single obstacle the entire time. I also don’t know how you could live with yourself if you are eating dudes asses at parties for only $11 bucks. A meal at Chipotle is more expensive than the price of eating a mans leather cheerio and that’s insane.

I know a girl who went to high school with him back when he looked like McLovin.
She says that he would do anything for money and at a party he actually licked another guy's asshole for $11.
This became a running thing he'd do and eventually everyone came to accept that he loved to eat other boy's asses.

There's a Toad licking joke in here but I can't be bothered.

Fucking hell that was perfect.

You can smoke weed and still be sober. Sober means you don't do actual drugs.

DL isn't even a deck company it's a mid grade cannabis company.

It just surprises me because he's never pictured smoking weed since he got sober and he talked about it specifically in the past.

there's the term 'clean and sober' for abstaining from all. in some cultures it's known as straight XX fucking edge but clean refers to drugs and sober refers to alcohol so your friend is kind of right even if it's on the cusp of lies of omission.

Yeah if you have mental illness weed definitely will bring it out of you. Starts to usually manifest itself more around the age I'd assume Jerry is too. Early to mid 20's. That's how we learnt one of our buddies was schizophrenic. Weed started making him hear voices n shit.
