Creation Welcomes Kenny Reed

[s a d e]

Rase Libre lost Deluxe a half million dollars? Rasa was my favorite when it came out and I feel as though I only had the chance to skate one or two boards before dlx ended it.

Magenta would've been way sicker, but I'm glad this guy has a board sponsor. Too bad about Rasa Libre being out of business. Matt Field should have never left Deluxe.

First off, Matt never left DLX, he was shown the door. Rasa Libre lost $500,000 for DLX. That's the reason it all ended there, plus Matt's relationship with Jim and Mic-e wasn't so good.

Bummed Kenny ended up on this fake company. I really expected him to end up on Magenta, but yeah, I guess he's not quite as cool with those guys as expected. As far as him slacking, that's for sure, he's definitely not the skater he was, but he's still sick and out there doing his own thing.

Rasa is still going strong, aren't they?

the hate only comes from absolute love.

They're out of business now.

I never heard a story about Rasa Libre losing that much money for DLX. I heard Matt left because of differences in how product was wanted to be made, like organic cotton and hemp in clothing, and things like that, and DLX wasn't into it beacuse it was a bit more expensive, so Matt broke out on his own and tried to do shit his own way. Any sources for what your story about Rasa Libre? Also, if Matt Field's relationship with Mic-E and Jim T wasn't so good, then why would they have given him the chance to start the company under Deluxe in the first place?

So deluxe invested $500,000 all together into rasa libre, and when deluxe canned the company, they lost their investment, and wrote it off as a $500,000 loss because rasa libre brought them no profit? So the 500k went no where basically. Is that what you are saying? Or did something else happen?

I dont think that was Matt Fields choice, i dont think they offered him a spot anywhere else after Rasa went under.
