That nobody gets on workshop, we have rules about who getslooked at, yada yada yada.  Its out of the new transworld am issue.

Maybe all Pros and Ams are stoked on Fitzgerald ?  Pretty sure Piscopo isnt calling the shots at AWS
[close]

dills the one who said it not piscopo. if fitzgerald can get on then anyone can get on. you just have to be average at skating and know how to clean out dills asshole with your mouth. piscopo had the potential to be one the best so i get why hes on but i just dont see that with fitzgerald.

also his comment about workshop changing riders and not the otherway around is utter bullshit. workshop goes through generations where one or two riders basically captain the ship. it was blenders workshop for memory screen then dyrdeks for timecode then kalis' for photosynthesis and then kirchart's for mind field. now its dill and AVEs turn to captain the ship and basically mold it to what they want. he can deny that but it is true.

I don't know, maybe youre right and one or two guys can influence the direction but I don't think it's at all as deliberate as you may think. Dyrdek wasn't the dude he is now around the time Timecode came out. Wouldn't Lenny Kirk have been more of the influential one? Same for Heath during Mind Field... That dude had to be an inspiration to the rest of the team, but again I don't think Heath would take on the roll of captain, as you put it.

I think Dill just talks a lot. He's been on forever now and seems to care quite a bit about the brand still to this day. I don't know what woke him up, be he's been killing it since Mind Field came out.

I met Berra he said AVE and Dill were trying to get him kicked off for five years before it finally happened. Also, Berra was an okay dude.

So Berra spoke negatively about the two guys that got rid of his cornball do nothing ass, while making himself look like a good guy?

I don't fully recall, but I believe there were long political debates concerning zero/blackbox and a connection to white supremacy; then the civil war and what the politicians at the time truly wanted; then the economy; also something about how gilbert crockett changed his clothes somewhere along the line. Am I missing something? A lot of it was well thought out gipper rants that for the most part I didn't read.

So what's going to happen with the footage that would've been used in Cold War? Was all of it used in that Pawnshop video?

So... anybody have conclusive evidence why Fitz is off Zero? I don't really want to dig through the political debates from earlier.

He was over it, and saw an opportunity to ride for Workshop since he skates with some of the Alien dudes.
