Off Nike SB and on DC ???
Possibly...
**Title change
-
He is still on the Nike team page
-
He is still on the Nike team page
They don't even update their team page. Ishod and Corey aren;t on there.
Like i said rumor, not actually confirmed.
-
Cole AND O'Neil? What are they trying to prove here?
-
dumb
-
do they even make a vulc shoe? i can't imagine shane wearing some cupsoled dc's.
-
Why would he leave the biggest shoe company in the world for DC?
-

ya dc's not into vulc, all cupsole....
it just doesnt seem like dc could ever have more money than fucking nike, and if its not about money then why in the world would anyone want to skate for dc, let alone leave nike for it. stick to posting hubba ads nerd
-
Dc doesn't have more money than nike, but they probably have more money for him.
-
still dont think so...nuggets like youtube berrics person wonderkid
-
He's still expendable to a company like nike though. the whole team is except for p rod. At dc he'd be head nigga in charge.
-
5$ he's not.
-
5$ he's not.
Where's FGNP to offer TShirts
-
it just seems like nike isnt dumb enough to let go of such a marketable person, especially with faggy street league wins and shit, also the fact that he rides for skatemental which is basically nike skateboards, so dc means new board sponsor too
-
yea I'm not saying he's on. In fact, i highly doubt it, but i could definitely it being possible

It's a sad day in skateboarding when I'm actually bummed that someone is leaving NIKE for DC. I mean sure that goes without saying these days but remember when DC was awesome? Sure its a decade ago but still.

IF he got on DC then he would actually have a chance of getting a pro shoe, I doubt he would get one if he was on Nike.
I'm not saying he's on DC, just a chance. Like Chris Cole on DC rumor.

i highly doubt this but who knows now a days haha.
But shane's been on Nike SB for so long and absolutely loves them and they look after them so much that I highly doubt he's going to DC..
and he already had an offer for Plan B ages ago which he turned down. Guy's had so many offers which he's turned down as he only wants to ride for what he absolutely loves and not chasing a paycheck.. and i know at his age now he's doing pretty damn good for himself.
but hell, who knows haha (well besides him)

It's absolutely true! From someone close to Nugget, DC approached Nugget after Street League, made him an offer. Nike countered, which basically started a bidding war, with DC parting with a BIG chunk of change to sign him. Basically came down to Shane getting a pro shoe immediately from DC with no absolute promise of a pro model from Nike.
Personally I feel like Nike gave Nugget a name and without them, he might still be in Australia trying to make it. No doubt the kid has talent, but Nike gave him the opportunity to travel, skate with dudes like P-Rod, Stefan, and the rest of the team, and basically learn from the best in the biz. Just like the rest of DC's skate team, Nugget is just going to get lost in the shuffle over there. Especially if the Cole rumors are true, he may get an ad to announce him, and then down into DC obscurity he will go. I personally feel like skating for DC is like signing your skate career's death certificate, but hopefully it does work out for him...

Yeah, Pro shoe right away if he signed with DC. A long shot if he stayed on Nike, But you never know, If omar can get a shoe, then anyone else on the team could get one also. I respect Omar, but i still ponder why he has gotten a pro model. What's he been up to these days? Any future video parts from him?
-
nugget is proper - i back what ever decision he makes.
i like the nike team/image, but i'd love to see dc get back to what it used to be in the carroll/howard/rudy days.
nike is gonna run into team problems like this eventually if they dont make more pro shoes, things like over looking brian anderson and giving omar a shoe and a shoe that's dated just is out right rude. prod, koston, anderson, mountain, janoski, hewitt should all have shoes (not just color ways)....followed by marnell & nugget.
-
Hope this isnt true, Dc is lame.
-
on a related note-i heard about janoski leaving for gravis...might be possible because of the analog/burton connection.
does anyone know something about this?
-
i highly doubt this but who knows now a days haha.

In a skatetalk episode (I think the one watson was on it) patrick odell started making a kids clue game to find out the name about a new pro whos shoe sponsor didn't wanted him to turn pro, it was shane. Probably now nike takes care of him cause they realize that he was marketable after all the street league shit...
...anyway DC sucks (their shoes and itself as brand)
-
janoski to gravis is old. thats how him and omar got their pro shoes. they were gonna go to gravis, so nike gave them pro models to stay
-
thanks mbcls

-
Dc doesn't have more money than nike, but they probably have more money for him.
True. They'd hype him up beyond belief - he's a bit lost with all the dudes at nike.
-
by no means am I a fan of DC shoes, nor have I been for quite some time, but if people are complaining about how lame they are, then why be upset if they're making changes and adding great names to their team? The people at DC obviously understand they need to bulk up their pro team and hopefully with more additions (like nugget if this is true) their footwear/image will improve and maybe a resurrection of a 2000 era DC will become a reality with new blood?
-
Can't see it happening, he just fits in too well at Nike. I don't think the dude would leave the company that brought him to America, just for some more dough.
-
i dont think theres any way for dc to be poppin again ever, unless they change their logo cuz nobody wants to see that ish on their shoes

This is all Tony Hawk's fault.

For me it does not really matter who their riders are, I like quite a few of their current riders. Just cant stand the brand itself.
-
i hope not!
dc will never get its old image back, not with rally, fmx, snowboarding, huge logos on fat teenagers and an entire team of people milking it.

very true indeed, although i don't agree with you about the team. Nick Dompiere and Kalis are far from milking it

this thread title suggests homosexuality. "nugget on" would be less ambiguous
-
Im guessing that if he does go to DC he will probably be off SkateMental shortly after.
-
isn't the dream to be pro and have your own pro model shoe, it would be better for him to get a pro shoe rather than be 1 guy in a 100 man team. Either way I don't believe this.
-

SkateMental seems like sucha cool company, but how often do you even see a kid riding em?
-
nike seems like they are doing it right i dont think shane deserves a shoe quite yet and thats what nike is probably saying in due time he will get his shoe i am sure, if nike was in it for the money they will definitely give shane a shoe asap because he is the most marketable kid in skateboarding at the moment

i'm starting to see skate mental show up more these days
-
Although this topics a rumor, thatd probably be how it goes down. On DC then plan b soon after. Mental needs to make itself knwn
-
it doesnt matter if people actually buy the boards, its fucking nike skateboards they'll probably be alright...And ya it may be every kids dream to get a shoe, but lets be honest are you gonna pick the nike shoe or some dirty ass dc's, and people saying if he goes to dc he's gonna "run things", again who the fuck wants to run shit at dc, He may be "1 guy in a 100 man team" but as far as nikes concerned I'm sure he's one of the most valuable dudes they have, besides p-rod of course, And realistically it would only make sense that he's next in line for a pro shoe, only other dude I could think would be maybe BA
-
Either way. In my book Skate Mental and Fourstar are still skater owned and legit companies. If he stays with them i think he still will have some crdibillity. And if he gets a little more cash at DC and a shoe then who cares. And he skates so I don't see him getting lost in any shuffle. Dc and Nike both suck. Doesn't most big companies suck in some way? I just bought his thunder truck so i'm going into this topic biased.
-
Oh yeah, I heard from same source that Nugget is head to toe DC, meaning apparel and footwear, which leaves him off Fourstar as well. I can see him joining his bff's P-Rod and Torey on Plan-B and then falling into obscurity....
-

PJ left fourstar for DC apparel too right? If he does leave skate mental, then maybe They'll add Dan Plunkett to the pro squad. Since it's just Staba, Beach, Motta and Shane right now.

Goddamn how fucking terrible is DC? Can't they tell they are so behind the times? They make 1 shoe (the Tonik) that basically the entire team skates, yet instead of making shoes that are similar to it and relevant, they push shit like this Dyrdek high top strappy puke bullshit. Seriously DC are you trying to destroy what miniscule amount of skateboard respect you have left? The only reason I give them any respect is because of shoes like the Howard, Stevie, and Kalis models from the late 90s/earlys 2000s. But they keep this shit up and I'll forget how rad those shoes were and write them the fuck off....

I know this shit is goofy in these times but that's Jason Kidd's pro shoe back in like the mid-90's and that shit was a hot seller because of the design. Also remember that skate shoes were pretty bizarre back then too. It's not too long ago when skate companies started to just bite shit off of Vans.

Isn't this the best selling "skate" shoe of all time?

I'm sure they can fairly easily. 6, 7 years ago i thought i'd never buy a pair of nikes again and i've owned several in the past few years. Remember 5+ years ago when vans were focusing more on putting out pro shoes like the Fowl and the those ugly steve cab shoes? I'd say they flipped their image pretty successfully

DC's skate line shoes ar fine. The ones posted on this thread are some fashion/hipster/jock line shoes which are hideous.

kind of off topic but in the new transworld he does a tre flip noseslide 270 heel

well they are sort of an icon of just how preposterous skate "fashion" can get.
it would be funny if they made some kind of lean vulc version just to fuck with everybody...and get money from the goons.
also if dc got cole and nugget and put out a line that only proper shops could carry that didn't have the logo just DCSHOECOUSA on them, and they weren't shite and felipe got a bangin pro model and a bunch of other shit they might could come back a little...maybe.

You definitely should pick up snowboarding. Since you already mastered transition skating in mere months, imagine how easy snowboarding would be for you. That shit is attached to your feet, for christ's sake! Just go off them jumps like a motherfucker, have the entire snowboard industry on its knees in a week.

And he can do 4 foot high frontside airs and back crailslides on 8 foot bowls.

do people understand that when moves are made by companies, it takes time for it to actually happen, and is not immediately going to be on the company website?...

Exactly. There are contracts with obligations. You're not just like "I don't want to be on your team anymore, see ya." Especially with companies like Nike and DC. These shits don't happen overnight.

im gonna disagree. its kinda like when you and your girl breakup, the first thing you do is go to facebook and change your status to single. same thing.
-
no dude, there are contracts to be fulfilled and if you don't , they either don't pay you or you can get sued.
-
Yeah....it's called a breach of contract. It's pretty much stupid if you just start sporting another company when you aren't legally sponsored by them. Plus I doubt Shane wants to have Nike breathing on his neck trying to sue him for going to DC. And why not just wait it out. If this is true, Shane is getting paid by Nike till the end of his contract and then will get a pay increase (hopefully) by DC when he gets on with them.

I remember the days when companies would find out their riders switched companies from 411 grapevine with SLB lol

You're comparing a facebook status to the intricacies of contracts that have developed in the skate world? Nike and DC will have shit like NBA contracts, not "Shane O'Neill has changed his contract status to DC."

Yeah I know of just flow riders who were on contracts being threatened to be sued for breach of contract for changing sponsors.. so you can imagine with 'bigger name' it would be even gnarlier

i think the dude means board graphics, vibe/aesthetic, how eclectic the team is, etc. based on raw talent alone, of course Plan B is ahead by far, but i sure as fuck would rather be riding a John Motta pro model over a Sheckler or Pudwill one.

Did Janoski and Shane have a baby? Or first ever pro model collaboration with two different skaters, but in one shoe

Maybe it is one of those team colorways. Shane seems to only skate Janoski's.
-
Ever since Kalis quit his low-key hate on Shane and is now backing "this kid" I have no doubt that Shane is on DC.

sorry to correct you tate, but that combo has already happened in a dc shoe, don't remember the name though. it was a mckay/way combo with some velcro strap!

still no confirmation? another SLAP intervention ala Lutzka - Element in the making?

I have no way to prove it but I was informed that Shane did leave for dc and Malto will be on nike in january.

I can't see malto on nike without them loosing some heads - the team is way too stacked. Someone like dan murphy is gone.
-
He got on because of stefan and koston.And the tm for etnies is gone that he followed so his contract is up and he was out.
I like how you think Nike couldn't afford someone or there was no room.
-
Malto's getting paid!
I don't actually care where Shane and Malto end up, I just wanna see quality footy on a regular basis
-
But it gives us dorks something to complain about when it's raining all day.
-
If you think about it, Shane and Malto have to thank Dyrdek and street league for this big time moves. Doubt it that without the wins, both companies would've make the moves.
-
He was still wearing janoskis yesterday. Unless he's deliberately not wearing DC til some contract starts or ends.

the team is way too stacked- yea, it would be a bad thing to add another dude like Malto. Terrible.
Skate salaries and marketing budgets at NIKE are comparable to finding 10 bucks in your pants after you do the laundry. Spare change.

True. Drop one basketball jock making 9 million or whatever, then, buy half of skateboarding. Nike doesn't sweat it.

Ok , maybe no thank him, but the STreet League exposure has to do with it...Especially since there are going to be 6 dates now in 2011

If he leaves he'll be the only guy on Skate Mental with a different shoe sponsor.

that wont happen, if he's off one he's off the other

that's the reason they continue to exist i think.....even though alot of skaters say they hate them and whatevs, who wouldn't want to watch those guys do "BIG" tricks in person. They dont suck some of their video parts aren't great but ultimately you can go and see 10 guys go and get tech on smaller stuff then kickflip lipslide a huge rail. every try for seven tries or whatever the format be.
-
It's ok to hate the idea but seriously it does not count until you are there, it really is a different experience..
and Colin pretty much confirmed that plan b and dc are his new sponsors, he kept talking about (denying it) it on skatetalk.
-
dc yes plan b not even

was just starting to think it was the janosksi's that make him and ckennedy skate so good and was planning on buying a pair, guess ill be taking my business elsewhere
-
These changes don't seem like they would fit. I can't see Malto on Nike. it'd be sick but i doubt it'll happen. As for O'Neil on DC that just sounds like a horrible idea for him. where's the actual proof for any of this?
-
this is true and will be confirmed after jan. 1st they offered him close to 2 million for 3 or 4 years and a few pro modles which nike wasnt gonna match...so he left. chris cole has a similar deal but with more money

i cant see shane skating in dc's unless they make a complete janoski rip off which is very likely i do not see malto leaving etnies any time soon though hes got his homies over at etnies bledsoe and mikey taylor they are always putting out videos of him riding around on bikes and shit they support him over there it seems but who knows

I could see him skating these. They actually skate pretty well besides thin/shitty insoles.

couple mil and some pro models, anyone would take it. and he kinda fits on plan b (guys who can do everything+ on command team)
also just to keep things in perspective nike gave lebron like 90 mil before he played his first minute of pro ball.

FOUND THIS ON THE SKATE MENTAL SITE. I GUESS WE'LL BE SEEING HIM STAY ON THE MENTAL. I WONDER IF HE'LL BE OFF 4-STAR?
12/14 nike does not own skate mental
We get a handful of emails weekly asking us if Nike owns Skate Mental. Nike does not own Skate Mental. I?m pretty sure if Nike owned us we would eating much finer food and would be driving Stretched Hummers with Titties surrounding us. Those boxes at the baseball game that have food and those good views. Wiping our asses with hundred dollar bills. You get the picture.

that may not be adding much to the oneill-dc-rumours, but seeing jack curtin (FINALLY) on fallen, maybe even with a pro shoe, may be a hint that a heavy hitter with a (incredibly ugly) pro-shoe may have left the fallen building. even though i cannot say how crappy it would be if cole would sell out that damn much.

When I first heard the Chris Cole DC rumor I thought it was so farfetched. But then recently he got on Monster and now on skatetalk they said he is officially on Matador beef jerky. This rumor seems increasingly more likely.

wearing well-made shoes is an obviously 'tool' move if there is a visible swoosh on the side. you know these things tate.
