Damn bro you suck at embedding.

If so, good for him. Get that Nike money, Kyle! Amazing style.

Leeper is sick! But I doubt Nike would fully put him on. Their team is already stacked

You're right but at the same time, what Leeper could offer for Nike would not be an investment for Nike. Don't get me wrong, I like his skating but if you look at the current Nike team, they are all the "popular pros" or the "long time respected pros". But who knows, maybe Kyle will come up!

Or maybe he just bought a pair of Nikes. He may be off Etnies, but it's not safe to assume that he's on Nike for sure. So I guess the only power move here is Stereo making vinyl cruisers, kids will definitely eat that shit up.

I would never buy a cruiser that I can't ollie up a curb with. I would feel like such a scrub getting off my board every time I came to a curb.

his output since that one really good transworld part has been either absent or so low key that a lot of people forget about him. etnies probably didn't renew his contract.

who even rides for etnies? i know bledsoe has been there for awhile, sheckler of course, cairo and nick garcia, but who else? they've seemed like a sponsor waiting room for a long time, ever since they brought emerica and eS into the pictures all those years ago. does devine calloway still ride for them? or anyone?

He's currently still on Stereo. And I think Quiksilver dropped everyone except for Reese, so it's not like just Kyle got dropped.

Looks like fun to me, would love to get one.

Exactly - I used to have this shitty 27 inch Gravity Skateboards mini cruiser years ago w soft wheels. Loved it.

I'm gona have to trade in my cruiser for one of these, but I don't like how there is no grip tape.

Anyone actually have one of these or taken one out for a spin at all?

Also - Kyle is sick as fuck - always thought the dude can shred. Leeper did the stunt doubling for J. Mascis in that Dinosaur Jr song:

And of course - him killing it in the rain skate video he did for Etnies:

(Insert Pro Here) off (insert company here) on nike. I feel like I've been hearing this a lot lately.

those cruisers are actually more fun and useable than i thought, but its so weird since you always have the feeling that its gonna break. but it doesnt. how he does that downhill on it is beyond me though, with my size 11 feet i could rather use them like this:
