also this: https://instagram.com/p/BZMkrpeAORS/ (https://instagram.com/p/BZMkrpeAORS/). last picture. tyson peterson on fa and mossy oak?
full disclosure i dont know the guy who posted that at all and it feels really weird linking a stranger's instagram post to the world. what a time to be alive.

Would suck for Chocolate if he left, but would be a great fit on Hockey.

In another thread i talked about how rowan already denied FA before so he wouldnt leave baker now, I might have been wrong though because I saw an insta story of him skating the silver hockey board today.

man that's one of the spots where i grew up as a kid. my dad lived a block away and bought me a flame boy board just to be able to follow my brother around and keep up with his crew. didn't start trying tricks till a few years later but chaparral was like an emb for me as a kid. awesome to just see that photo of the curved ledge/3 block and reminisce.

Can't say he doesn't fit on Hockey even though I want to try my hardest to delegitimize the brand because I'm a fucking hater. I liked him on chocolate but I always thought it was a weird fit.

Let's look at this list and be perfectly honest, we all know who is staying and who could leave.
With all the contest coverage lately, Raven is the most likely candidate.

To be honest, I think anyone with a Lakai connect would be unlikely to leave unless they have another sweet shoe deal lined up. Although, Raven could easily go to Diamond shoes, but I'd be surprised to see Diamond putting him on so he could leave Chocolate.
My guess is Jerry. Chico is there for life, and I can't see anyone else having the appeal to get on a cool company (who doesn't ride for Lakai and have a pro shoe with them) right now outside of Kenny Anderson.

Jerry pretty much just got on. He's not getting any younger either, I'd say Chocolate is his retirement position. If someone's gone, it's Raven.

He put out a full part 18 months ago, and is pretty legendary. Gino hadn't put out a full part in 12 years and bounced to what people would deem a cool company. Skaters with Jerry's track record are always in demand even if they are slightly producing.

Raven to Who Fucking Cares. Confirmed.

Anti Hero or Doom Sayers

Who knows. That wallet chain is tight. Pretty much a guarantee with that thing hanging around.

Raven would fit best on some kind of major league sports team I feel like

whatever that is on Nolan Johnson's head looks pretty alright, drullet or something. pointandclick spending too much time indoors.

Umbrella Skateboards confirmed.
This is a great move for FA, shitty one for the crail camp. Berle's a total powerhouse. Crail camp can't catch a break these days.
Also, only acceptable dreads on white people are crust punk rat tail dreads but that died out when trust punks cried wolf.

This would be such a disappointment, but when i read that someone else was leaving my first instinct was Kenny.
-

nope.

Can't imagine Kenny leaving, isn't he known to be extremely loyal to his sponsors? I mean he waited for Planet Earth to fold until going to Crailtap.

loyalty at 26 and loyalty at 40 are much different things..especially when you have kids and money is involved

I know Crail is struggling but is any board company really paying these days, at least a noticeable amount difference wise (not talking an extra 100 to 200 a month). Kenny has Cons which is clearly his primary source of income by a wide margin. I can see companies like Element doing it on the backs of their apparel and previously DGK, past that I can't see you making significantly more on royalties with numbers over Chocolate.
At this point, it seems your board brand just legitimizes you and gives you a platform to get big shoe sponsors. Seems more board sponsor moves are more motivated by wanting to hang-out with your friends, people being wronged, or they don't like the new direction.

THIS. no clue on speculation of who is leaving but girl/choco have marooned themselves on Crail Island and some people may need to leave to take a shoe contract that will pay their bills.

Elijah is on 917 because I saw him on their Insta story.
confirmed and unconfirmed

I saw him yesterday with Bill Strobeck and a bunch of FA kids in New York. He was skating an FA AVE board so he might be filming something with them or he’s just on vacation and skating FA boards. Half the Girl/Chocolate team skated Anti Hero boards anyway so it might not mean anything.
I think it would be a cool fit if true though.
-
As long as there is more footage of him, I don't really care where he ends up.
Dude is so fucking good.
-
Vans orchestrated power moves?
Is Vans taking a page from the Nike/Adidas playbook to destroy Crail by leveraging riders shoe checks?
I'd say so if Berle actually rode for Lakai.
-
Elijah Berle is a hipster at heart (see his Foundation days); he can't resist the gravitational pull of the Supreme camp.
-
I think he'd fit hockey or Antihero, be sick to see him on a tour with Antihero

I've tried to draw my own Cindy board once every year or so forever. Never satisfying enough. Wouldn't call Otherness trendy either. But it's the only brand I've bought 6 boards from at once in more than 20 years.
Elijah on Hockey I could easily see. Hopefully not though. Chocolate needs to put out more footy. Doesn't have to be fancy or long. The Weekdays are great, but I need more.
Raven on the other hand could easily go to Football Skateboards. I'd it just his build? Or why does he come across super jockish?

Otherness is Marc Johnsons company, i think Thom Hornung handles the business side of things but Marc isn't just a rider.
-
Remember the thread of all the names Marc has copywritten? Wasn't Otherness on that list? Either way, I agree with you. Thom runs shit, Marc isn't just a guest, and just like that, we forgot about Elijah.
Need more fresh Elijah footage either way.
Until then, I'm rewatching Barker curb dancing super OG spot

Saw on someones story on IG that Elijah was hanging in NY wearing an FA tee.
Think its a forgone conclusion now.
Thats a big loss for Chocolate.

They're using the same wood as deluxe now. If you go to a shop and it's still shitty crail is most likely just old stock.
They still use the same shapes though, which I don't like personally.

I love their 8.375x31.825 and their 8.5x31.825 If they're on the same wood as deluxe it might be game over for other brands for me.

Does same shapes mean also same concaves and those flat parts behind the truck, before the tail starts to curve?

So, no one knows if he quit Chocolate or not?
-

2 diff things. shape is just the oval part around it.. 2d template. concave and "flat parts" are caused by the mold and crail boards have that flat part typically because they have short wheelbase.
if they moved woodshops the concave will def change but probably will find somethin similar.
-

Pure speculation,but I'm sure a Strobeck edit or something will tell

Saw him this past week with an FA board.

They fucked themselves by using shitty wood for too long and not coming out with enough content to keep the kids attention.
I really do wonder how much different it would be if they used good wood.
I'd currently be riding a girl/chocolate board if that were the case.
They're using the same wood as deluxe now. If you go to a shop and it's still shitty crail is most likely just old stock.
They still use the same shapes though, which I don't like personally.
You mean Generator/Bareback? Source?
Yup. Source would be my local shop stocking them.
No way! Crailtap has always had my favorite shapes but the wood has been pretty shit. This changes everything.

Skateboarders younger than 18 make up most of the market, so they count more than we do at this point lol. It's pretty much run by 14 year olds with their parents money, they're the ones who are keeping this ship afloat.

raven is one of the best skaters i don't give two shits about. Outside of an hour at denmark it's hard to care.
Numbers gets hate but if you have seen 1st and Hope you'd know that LA skating with the long lens and kenny anderson is fucking amazing. i'd love to see him cruising in that cinematic style for a 10 minute clip

Everywhere I've lived the skate scene consists of a pretty even mix of <18 and >18 year old skaters. The majority of young kids ride scooters, which might not be accurate of other places but I bet adult skaters make up a good size of the market.

Elijah should have never been on Chocolate to begin with, so it's a long time coming imo.
Rick, Mike, Megan and Spike need to get it together and fire Sam Smyth.

He never really fit Chocolate's vibe when he got on, but he was absolutely a worthy addition to the Crailtap family, bu the may have fit better on Girl.

I just came here to say there are no Elijah or Jerry boards in this series, but should've known SLAPs super sleuths already cracked the case.
Also, when Chocolate makes the news headline say "New Chocolate wood" it can be very misleading and cause massive excitement followed quickly by more massive disappointment.

i could definitely see Jerry leaving due to the whole Marc Johnson debacle and the way Marc was treated, almost certainly to Baker if so

I think it's the same wall he grinds in his Vans part. I was stunned that trick didn't get more mention after the video released. Every time I watch that part it boggles my brain how he casually threw that down. Most people wouldn't even make half way up that wall.

He changes his steelo up so frequently, like a less intense Jim Greco. And I guess now he will be rocking vintage tee shirts and Supreme gear. Fly free little bird

There's also not an Eldridge or Roberts board. Idk if I saw a Stevie Perez either. Jerry and Elijah have one offs and boards in the out west and LA series though. Really hope Jerry doesn't leave too. Seems like Elijah is a done deal. Ive noticed some of the bigger name pros are getting two sizes of certain boards. Crails prob trying to boost royalties for bigger names pros. If any one else is leaving, I would prefer it to be Malto. With as many ppl who have left the past 4 years you would think they would try and overhaul the teams to present something fresh instead of keeping the homies on for way too long. Like obviously Carroll rickk and Chico deserve to still have their boards. I think it's time to let Jeron move on, same with Eldridge, Jesus, and mike mo...
I thought about the fact that not every one is in every series but i would assume Jerry would be considered one of the top pros at chocolate and have a board in every series, i could be wrong though.

IDk man it seems like everytime you hear about Dwindle it's them letting someone go or shutting down a brand, probaly not the best ship to be on, i'm sure Jerry Hsu would be somewhat insulated but idk. Was Jerry the brand manager over there before he left? Part of the Chocolate deal mightve been tojust focus on skateboarding and not the business side of things.
-
Matt Eversole was the brand manager over at Enjoi through 2013, the team and the sense of humor conveyed in the ads was mostly thanks to his contribution to the brand. When Dwindle forced him out in 2013 (I think they had their hearts set on making the panda the new hot logo in every mall shop, or something along those lines), Jerry bounced along with him, and Louie took over as brand manager -- hence, the reason the team's been in flux these past few years. Enjoi seems to be stable now, but Oververt is still a pretty unfortunate chapter in their history.

i had it confirmed for me that the mass market crail boards (big mall accounts, etc..) are still using the china factory. the way it was said though made it seem like they were running another wood shop for smaller runs.. maybe skate shops?

Thank god nobody cared what I looked like when I was a teenager. Not a single photo and no proof.
I looked like a mixture between an emo kid and a skinhead. I don't know how but I did it.

Not that it's a big deal, but it's just because they're often named together like that. There are multiple edits called "Sean and Sage" or "Sage and Sean".

That is a fucking terrible move for them but would probably be smart for Raven.
Elijah and Tershy never could be on Chocolate...put both on just say how mad chocolate managers are.
But seriously. Where would be a good place for Raven to land? Literally the only thing I can think of is possibly Real but even that seems kind of weird.

There is no way in hell he would've gotten on any current Crailtap company if he didn't have the last name Tershy. With the exception of his vaguely hip-hop aesthetic he couldn't be more different than anyone else on Girl/Chocolate.

Even heard him talking with his friends about going to an alternative location to smoke weed because he didn't want to do it around the younger kids.

If this is true, I am stoked. I seriously hate when people talk aloud about smoking weed or "getting fucked up". There are other people around, sometimes very impressionable youth. And I agree with those that are leaning toward the idea Berle is cool; I really can't see him being on the too cool for school tip.

so, is it confirmed?
he's still on the chocolate site.

FA not hockey
-

There's no way that he's not getting on FA/Hockey at this point. My guess is that he agreed with Crail to wait until a certain date to make the official move so that they can move through his product. I mean, those guys definitely aren't doing hot and the last thing they need is another MJ situation.

I can attest to the fact that Raven is a genuinely cool human. Met him and the Our Life crew at my local in Memphis about a year ago when they made a pit stop on the way to Patlanta's wedding.
Super humble and friendly. Down for a casual conversation. Asked him the dumbest question ever ("excuse me, but are you Raven Tershy?") and he just chuckled and said "yeah, man. What's up? Nice to meet you." Talked a little bit about skating and traveling.
Also, his "warm up" tricks were absolutely fucked up.
Definitely something to witness in real life.

True... I mean the best part of skate culture is that it constantly changes, so I'm also into the google look that you describe... So I guess maybe a better way to describe Chocolate graphics is "timeless?"

MJ's situation was a debacle because they had a whole bunch of shoes under his name they had to unload, which is why Lakai and shoe companies in general always have contracts. The reason it blew up was because Crailtap thought they could get one last run out of the shoes and let Marc leave quietly (after continually dropping his pay). Then Adidas offered Marc a deal and asked him to be in their new video. Marc was inbetween a rock and a hard place, partially due to unreasonable asks by crail. Simply put, Adidas was going to be his new check and he felt obligated to do it, which makes sense. He probably could have been more upfront about it with Crailtap, but how he was treated in regards to getting continually smaller paychecks and basically told he should find a new deal.
Its a shitty situation seeing Crailtap fall apart like that, but after hearing both sides of the story, I tend to side with Marc on this one. Crail's demands seemed a bit unreasonable. Plus, Koston going on record that he never planned to ever leave Girl and start a new company at 40 (which seems related to what happened with Altamont/Fourstar) and Guy leaving, makes me think there was a lot of desperation in the Crail camp, and MJ leaving like that put a vulnerable company in an even riskier situation. It may have been a dick move by MJ, but I think what they were asking of him in the first place was unreasonable and was out of desperation.
Boards can always be rescreened, its not like selling a shoe with someones name on it. Shops tend to get fucked over more in regards to getting boards that are hard to sell due to team changes, which is why people try to be respectful about it.

Seems Crailtap and a couple other brands (mainly DLX) have an unwritten rule not to poach each other's riders. Wouldn't be surprised if FA/Hockey are now part of that.

Forgot about that. So who knows. I feel Gino is a bit different. It wouldn't surprise me if he was a guy Crailtap was cutting decks and his pay check due to lack of productivity, compared to taking the arguably one of their more marketable names right now.

I think that since you pulled the whole concept out of your ass these made up theories definitely support it. Good job.

Confirmed on chocolate insta stories. Jerry Hsu is also out. I can't believe he left without a Crail part

Pretty sure it been known for awhile that DLX and Crail don't poach each other's riders. Was probably mostly the Mick-E factor, but that's why they never put Huf on despite him going on tours with them (Chocolate Europe tour).

whoa...if jerry and elijah both go to Hockey that might be one of the biggest moves of the past few years. the FA/Hockey camp is becoming legendary very quick

Has there been a Jerry speculation thread? I remember someone saying another "trendy" company.
For some reason I feel like hes going to otherness?
-
I feel like Jerry will be on Baker. A feeling based on not much.
-
I knew that act of aggression against MJ would not stand
-
I don't know what Sci Fi Fantasy is, but Jerry reps it a lot. Maybe Boys of Summer will be a board company and Sci Fi Fantasy will be its sister company and everyone will be divvying up the same small piece of an undercooked (underbaked?) pie.
-
Chocolate blowed it when they kicked of Devine.
Also, any of these new riders like Tershy, Berle, Jerry and Perez never fitted on the team.
It would be Tiago, Ribeiro and Durrant.

Sci-fi fantasy seems to be specifically Jerry's thang from what I can tell. Maybe he is gonna make boards next? I've been trying to buy a hat but can't find em online anywhere

Gino was just getting straight up board royalties for years before he left Choco. His board production wasn't cut since there was still demand for it, his order numbers remained relatively the same throughout that time.

Jerry back on enjoi? Feel like that ship has sailed its course though. Who knows, he might pull an Arto.

Jerry was taken off the site at the exact same time as Elijah. They were both up as of a week ago. So, I wonder where he lands. Sucks for Crail.
-
Dang so curious about where Jerry will end up at...I think otherness would be a really bad call.

Chocolate wasn't the lucky number 3 for him and Marc, is he going to give it a 4th try?
-
Ouch! Really sad to see them BOTH go at the same time and it's a huge hit to crail/chocolate IMO. Jerry had to have been moving boards since some of his were coming out in multiple sizes.
Obviously Elijah is going to FA/Hockey. Hockeys a better fit IMO. With Jerry leaving, as mentioned above, enjoi would be nice but I too think that ship had sailed. Could see Baker bc of Emerica/Spanly. Just hope he doesn't turn sci-fi fantasy into a board brand.

I don't think he will go to Otherness, dude is internet famous! Enjoi maybe,but not likely and its all speculation otherwise.

1 - Baker
2 - Baker

Jerry on Baker does not make sense to me, Baker's roster is so fucking large at this point I dunno if cutting checks for another aging pro would be a good financial move. I think Jerry might just chill for awhile and see what comes to him. Just me though.

In reference to Jerry, not Elijah.
That's just what Otherness always uses. That's why I put more than the 2-3 that once had the negative connotation. But I always wondered if Marc, or someone else at Otherness was aware of the Jewish reference, or if it was just a Twitter style trendiness.

I mean how long will people be circle jerking their shitty ms paint graphics and cringey, subtlety angsty, visual diarrhea on every deck? Skateboarding is weird, the most pretentious, judgemental pricks and their fans are the ones who are viewed as cool, laid back and “for the culture”. Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Nah brah it's all good because in Dill's EL he makes it a point to tell the world how good he's doing financially since he started FA as a board brand... It must be so wierd for someone like him to actually have some money. Makes sense him hooking up with a gold digger. Without her, he wouldn't know what to spend his $ on! (besides cigs of course)

Yeah, that's Jerry's brand. seems like it'd be weird to make it a board company though?
FA/Hockey camp doesn't seem plausible, and the only Baker connection is Emerica, feel like it'd be when Leo got on for a half hour and then left. Would love to see him back with Louie
People said the same thing about Omar and Doomsayers.
Could Jerry be going to 917? Just saw Vincent Touzery put up a photo of Jerry's name on his IG story, further perpetuating this dumb ass trend of announcing a new dude on the team through a fucking photo that lasts for 24 hrs, if it's true.
i saw that, it looks like he was just watching bag of suck
I think you're right. Weird timing though.
Jerry was seen riding a Hockey board, it was mentioned in another thread.

Gosh, this looks familiar. It reeks of Dill. If this is evidence of Dill moonlighting as a life coach, I don't know what it.
"AVE and I did this a few years ago, it was SICK!"
The *best* and I mean *very best* part about this announcement is that he first wrote it out in pencil then went over it in ink...
You know, in case he made any mistakes... 😭😭😭

I hear when someone goes to FA that Dill makes them remove all their previous coverage from the internet/existence and erase all footage they've had prior. FA or nothing baby!

It's common knowledge that when you get on FA Dill brands you with a secret masonic emblem and puts you through a process of psychological torture and sexual degradation until you become completely subservient to him. This is all coming out now Chloe Sevigny and that girl from Smallville have been recruiting for him for years.

But how soon though? Because it would have taken at least a month or so to produce them and maybe another couple of weeks to distribute them? I know this has been in the pipeline since late September, but i'd be amazed if it was next week.

I bet production started right away. You want product available for around the announcement since that's when demand will be highest. By announcement I mean print/web production ad and not an instagram post with a logo on a shirt.

Most of the riders for FA rip pretty hard, but I'm not their biggest fan. With that said, you know the next Elijah footage is going to have the collective skate audience creaming their pants and we're going to hear a lot of "He's such a good fit on FA", etc. It's shitty that they may have poached him from Chocolate, but at least they gave him a bit of a window to move stock.

In that opening scene there are two child rapists in it. The hot dog guy the doc talks about and Gary Goddard who Anthony Edwards (“Goose”) came forward in the past few weeks to talk about how he was raped by him when he was younger. Not to mention Bryan Singer had to settle when it came to light he filmed underage boys showering in the nude for Apt Pupil.

But seriously, Elijah is corny as hell when it comes to his style. He’s way too wrapped up in the fashion/costume aspect of being a pro. He’s constantly switching his style, depending on what brand he rides for, and now that he’s rocking the wife beater and highwater slacks, a la Dill in 2013, it’s just too much.

Look, I think his skating is great, and I'm hyped to see whatever footage he puts out. But, I do think he can be and somewhat should be clowned on for his fashion styke. If one of my friends trend hopped like that, they'd be mocked. This isn't really like guys like Piscopo or Louie who looked completely different as groms and changed up as they got older to what they currently wear. It just seems like trend chasing in the Mikey Taylor sense. I'll probably watch and enjoy Elijah's skating regardless of what he wears (unless he goes to a Borat style mankini), but it is worthy of mocking.

I don’t know shit about fashion but those pants are almost as wack as those red and black Garrett Hill pants.
What’s with the trend of people skating with their shirt tucked in? They got a job interview to go to or some shit? If you skate with your shirt tucked in you don’t look like Dylan Rieder, you probably just look like a nerd.
where have you been for the last 5 years? lol

did SLAP ever have a real discussion on how bad is shoe actually is? That red colorway is fucking terrible.

Danny said it really well, but yeah, there's a huge difference between "I'm twenty four and growing comfortable in my tastes and hobbies, and my wardrobe has begun to reflect that," (I.E. Gilbert Crockett) and "I'm twenty four with a new sponsor, so I'm gonna change my shit up completely overnight." He's too old to rely on whatever's in his box to give him character and an identity. It's very forced, it takes away from his skating, and it makes him the Mikey Taylor of his generation.

i get what you're saying here, but i would say for a number of us, other than a bit of variance in how the above fits, this has been the most comfortable and practical "fit" from ever since...

I agree. Unless you went through some seriously wack phases, you can easily get by with dressing pretty much the same for your entire life.

Danny said it really well, but yeah, there's a huge difference between "I'm twenty four and growing comfortable in my tastes and hobbies, and my wardrobe has begun to reflect that," (I.E. Gilbert Crockett) and "I'm twenty four with a new sponsor, so I'm gonna change my shit up completely overnight." He's too old to rely on whatever's in his box to give him character and an identity. It's very forced, it takes away from his skating, and it makes him the Mikey Taylor of his generation.

Most people grow up in how they dress, don't trend hop though. If he started dressing more like a regular adult he wouldn't be mocked, he just went from copying Duffel, to dressing hesh, to dressing like a supreme goofball.
in his defense, he's also like, 26.
he dressed like duffel at 15, like a lot of us did. he dressed hesh at 21, like a lot of us did. he's dressing like a douche now, like too many do.
his fits have never bothered me.
except those FA pants. those gotta go.
Look, I think his skating is great, and I'm hyped to see whatever footage he puts out. But, I do think he can be and somewhat should be clowned on for his fashion styke. If one of my friends trend hopped like that, they'd be mocked. This isn't really like guys like Piscopo or Louie who looked completely different as groms and changed up as they got older to what they currently wear. It just seems like trend chasing in the Mikey Taylor sense. I'll probably watch and enjoy Elijah's skating regardless of what he wears (unless he goes to a Borat style mankini), but it is worthy of mocking.
But dude, youre kind of a kook for paying so much attention. Skating doesnt need the fashion police, just go skate yourself.
Skateboarding has always been about what people wear, shut up.
alright, that's a pretty fair counterpoint

Why get upset about this guy following skate trends when every one of you do the exact same thing?

i liked his month long cowboy/rancher phase he went through during his transition onto FA. he went all in with the new silverado and the lasso.

Seriously, been wearing the same gear/fit for skating since I was a kid. Important thing to note here is "when skating". Work/lifestyle gear has changed considerably.
Those FA pants (just about any FA pants I've seen) are straight rubbish; FA and Supreme take the kook runway show vibe and think it's acceptable to wear that shit out in the real world and consider it free marketi...er fashion.

Is it real people skating it or people whose outlets and attention are based on promoting brands?

I’m guessing he copped some kind of c and d over his comments in the TNT thread, as he disappeared exactly thereafter.

For what it's worth the few people I've seen with them in the wild spoke highly of them.

I’m one of those weirdos that likes Elijah’s shoe (and TNT’s for that matter), but doesn’t care for Vans.
I also don’t see anything wrong with Elijah’s fashion sense, and feel like it’s much ado about nothing. I’d rather the kid be more of a fashionable fuccboi than a homogenous grain of sand.
