Berrics skate plaza is going to be open this month. They've done more for skateboarding in three years than any of you favorite skaters have in 20+.

Danny Way did more way more

read this shit if you want to see what the kids are saying.

http://search.twitter.com/search?q=%40olsonstuff

Looks like twitter people are backing koston, (most) slap people are backing olson. So #team_handsome wins.

It has to be more to it though, koston can't get that mad just for a plain comment of tumblr.

[close]

Feel free to correct me, but I don't think the Berrics has made a dime. My understanding is that Koston has sunk a lot of his own money into it. That could go a long way to explain his sensitivity about the topic.
So they signed up with that Metal Mullisha marketing firm to not make money? Do they sell tons of ads to break even?

Oh right, it's for the "greater good of skateboarding."

Only the IRS and Koston know the largest source of his income, it may or may not be Berrics, but he must be making something from it.

ahahaa my god this is the most fun I've had reading SLAP in a long time.

Obviously Koston has some pent up anger towards Alex, and that tiny little scoff at the Berrics set him over the edge. I always back Koston but that awful rant was so lame; straight up some Berra shit.

People are sure making a big deal about someone as irrelevant as Alex Olson is to skateboarding.

If its true, koston its a fucking dickhead

Olson & Carroll have always seemed pretty tight. Not sure if that'll have any sway in the (speculated) upcoming Girl drama.

You're missing it, brah. Just because a business is in it for profit doesn't mean it's making money. An extended period of investment before you go "into the black" is par for the course. The Berrics sells some ads and some tees. Is it so hard to believe that it wouldn't offset:

  • Staffing costs (filmers, editors, maintenance, whatever it was Donovan was doing, web developers)
  • Hosting/bandwidth fees
  • Rent on the Building
  • Graphic design
  • The marketing firm you mentioned, which wouldn't be cheap

Seems like a whole lot of fucking ads, boards, and tees to push this baby into profitability, don't you think? And how many Berrics United accounts do you think they sold, after all of that backlash. Five? Ten?
You must be on Team Greater Good. (haha)

Who knows, we can only speculate.  I'll speculate that Berrics generates more for him than his Spitfire check, but that's just my guess.

Wow, this is why I don't like Koston. Olson actually has an opinion and the guy throws an internet bitch fit. I love that his defense of the berrics is "we work hard". Catholic missionaries and Wall Street lobbyists "work hard", but it doesn't mean they're right. The rest of his response was childish name calling. Spoiled brat and neglecting his career? Homeboy has had two covers in the last year alone.

Allow me to insert a personal anecdote about Olson and Koston. I went to one of the demos at Beauty & the Beast 2, and Olson was the first one out skating while the puddles in the park were still drying. He skated the entire time, was having fun, and even battled a line for a good half hour (the one in the tour video with the bs 360 kickflip at the end). Koston showed up about 45 minutes after the demo started, in a fucking Benz or whatever he drives. I honestly cannot remember one trick he made. I vaguely remember him doing a couple of frontside grinds and signing a few autographs. Job well done.

Now of course Koston is a skating legend who has put his time in, that was just one day. But the guy who talked shit on P-rod for going to Nike....and now rides for Nike, the guy who talked shit on Oakley......and now rides for Oakley, the guy who is notorious for complaining and whining about skate spots, the guy partially responsible for one of the worst things about skating today (berrics), and has raked in piles of cash as a result of all this, has no right to call anyone else spoiled. This is ridiculous.

I was just thinking about this. �It was a mini interview in a Skateboarder, a 'one last thing' or whatever it is called. �They asked something to the effect of "what is your biggest mistake"? �and Koston said, riding for Oakley.

Also, didn't he just spend a few days bitchin at Dyrdek about the Street League set up? �Why is he trying to tear down something lil robby worked so hard to create? �

Fuck it. �Team Triple Negative / Handsome it is.

Precisely. Everybody assumes that because Koston's getting paid by Nike that he's got more money than God, but no one realizes that he's still just an employee of every company he rides for, and thus is still a medium-sized fish, financially speaking. If you're a company owner, you're saddled with all the business risk, but you are also blessed with regular amounts of profit if your company is successful. The Berrics, for all it's viewers, as a business is still an internet based entertainment channel and has no substantial way of earning money. Internet advertising is pittance when compared to print, thus all the Newspapers that are going out of business as advertisers move from paper to web. Don't you guys know this? It's in all the papers...

I wish it were more like the old days when there was less shit talking and more fistfights. I would have loved to have heard the stories of how Koston just punched Olson in the face. Kinda like when Billy Pepper punched Phelps and then was banned from Thrasher forever.
Like Daewon said: if skateboarding is a ten story building, Rodney is on eleventh floor.

how many people could possibly follow alex olsens tumblr?  now how many people do you think follow kostons IG?
i would say koston blew up his own spot with this one.

that said, this is scientific evidence why its impossible to stay away slap.
its gravitational pull is too strong aka "heavy"

It's funny. Everytime I've met Koston he seems like spoiled fucking brat.
He's a bitter sarcastic dick. Good skateboarder though.
At least I get to see him suck at Street League and try and cover it up with his "funny moves"

Yeah I met the girl team once and Koston was by far the biggest dick. Not to me personally but there was this kid at this spot who just wanted to say hi and all the guys were really nice to him but koston was just being an arrogant fuck to this kid for some reason. The guy epitomises the dickhead skater cliche
