^ Then search the archives. We've gone through the whole thing ad nauseum.

As far as what happened, Osiris went from lame to having a good team when they hired this guy Cuong to be the TM. The dude was sick, had a good eye for talent, and people seemed to like him.
For some unknown reason, Osiris didn't realize that he was the ONLY reason that they actually were starting to have a legtimate who was bringing the company out from the shadows of "the storm" and all that "The aftermath" wackness, so they fired him.

What happened next? Everybody left, and Osiris is working its way back to being not worth buying or paying attention to. Good job dudes! Definitely worth it to fire that dude and put up billboards of Corey Duffell instead, morons.

Cuong is back as TM as of this new year. It shows in the way the team has now been built up again.

rattray and stu graham left aswell
skating is all about choosing your outfit very deliberately, going out in public. looking super sick. and then riding your board a little bit

it is a sad day if stu graham has left osiris, he has been on the team for a while and even has some dire tattoo's to prove his commitment.

Btw, Mike Ternasky was the guy behind H-Street. After he died, Tony Mag took it over and that's pretty much when it stopped being good.

I don't know much else about Tony, other than that no one seems to like him. I saw him do a vert demo at Kezar in SF in the 80s and he killed it.

H street died long before Mike Ternasky. It was mostly Magnusson at H street, but Ternasky was part of it. When the team got all big and bloated Ternasky decided to start over with just a small team of absolute killers, plan b.

they came out with the osiris bronx, thats what happened. worse shoe ever, by the worst company ever. i've never in my entire life seen a skater actually skate osiris shoes, seriously. i hope someone that works for osiris reads this thread, and realizes how fucking shitty osiris is, and changes everything about it, cuz shit is  straight up embarassing.NSS and airspeed are more legit than osiris at this point, fuck osiris, and everything they do

Stu Graham is still listed on Osiris according to the internet.. no way he's getting on anything better, so if he really left he's as bright as he looks.

Although i do admit, shoes like the D3 and Bronx are the ugliest shit ever, i was referring to the TM thing and i got my answer, thanks guys. Is there anywhere i can read the conversation with james and shurikken where he called shuriken a N____r?
