To me, Adio's like that old aunt we all had who lived in the nursing home for so long. ?

You knew it was coming one day.

I remember in like 7th grade when all the dudes in my school rocked some Jeremy Wray joints. I was like "...dang"

They used to be popular, but I doubt that most skater kids now can even remember when Adio was cool. Hate to say it, but nobody, maybe even the team riders, will miss them.

Creager was talking about it.

I blame Hoffart. He was on Powell and it tanked. Then he was recently added to the Adio team and it tanked. Bones better boot him while they stil can.

I used to watch that video mostly of Britney Spears that came free with a magazine, that was pretty good. Kenny Anderson had a sick short part to Stevie Wonder, "Isn't she lovely." I was hoping the title of this thread was their next video.

i had like 20 pairs of these

popsiclesandskatin · « **Reply #16 on:** November 22, 2010, 09:03:28 PM »

adios were the only pair of shoes that you could skate perfect straight out of the box, i had me some hawk, wrays, and dompierres, but now they suck, my buddy got a pair cause he knew i used to be psyched on them and the grip pretty much just ripped right off.
that free video they put out was good stuff.

Closest adio shoes that I wanted was Danny Montoya pro model. But i never owned a pair of adio's. They had a good team when "one step beyond"came out

hoffart basically put that powell team together and helped make sure that video turned out the way it did so i would have to disagree with that statement. if the other riders had stayed they basically had their own company where they could do whatever they wanted and could make their own rules and get paid to do it. adio fell apart because even if they did have all the best skaters theyd still blow it. theres no real direction to anything they do over there.

I skated the first jeremy wrays, because they were on sales. I've always been the poorest kid so I went for it, when I had to.

mooraga · « **Reply #22 on:** November 23, 2010, 04:50:51 AM »

not a big surprise
too bad for creager cause he finally got on the team

vince the stud · « **Reply #24 on:** November 23, 2010, 06:44:03 AM »

most of they shoes sucked i admit...but they used to have a solid team and started to pump good shoes.

just change the fucking name of the brand and start from scratch with the same team

jamie thomas 5.0's yes i remember and i had many pairs... seems like they turned in the jeremy wrays which were the only other adio shoe i bought..

bummed on poor creager, back on lakai flow i guess $:-\$

idealhandmades · « **Reply #27 on:** November 23, 2010, 09:57:23 AM »

had one pair of Kennys that everyone had. I remember them fitting AMAZING, but skating like shit for some reason.
i remember wanting a pair of the Deans for a minute cause they looked kinda like chucks, but then I read a review that they were super stiff and skated like garbage.
Adios Adio. (and fuck me for typing that)
