$lave switching to Tum Yeto
« on: February 02, 2013, 10:52:24 AM »
I usually dont like to gossip about shit like this, but a very reliable source was telling me that tum yeto is in effort of buying slave from black box. Apparently the whole team is down for the switch, theres just some problems with buying of inventory. I think this is awesome. Spill your thoughts

Tum Yeto wood sucks my ass.
Before you say the music sucked, have you considered shutting the fuck up?

It's cool you like their shapes, but when you're as fat as me you're a lot more sensitive to quality of wood. Their planks are much weaker than others.

That would be awesome. I feel like Slave would also get more exposure than they do now. And think of the possibility of a Slave/Toy Machine video of any sort. I feel like Slave being through Blackbox wasn't allowing them as much exposure as the brand deserves.

I'm a big boy and Toy Machines never do me wrong. Good move for Slave, this isn't a good sign for Black Box.

Black Box in the past month or so has announced the full launch of New Balance footwear into the skate game and lost their coolest brand in $lave. Yikes.

You sir, are a dreamcrusher.  This beaut is waiting for me when my current mistress shits the bed...



Changed things up from my usual and was hoping it would win me over on Yeto so we'll see how it works out.

tum yeto boards are my favorite.. they for sure use more than one wood shop for their boards as well. the watson boards are are usually flatter and a bit oddly shaped, but they have boards coming from mexico as well which gotta be from generator.

Generator boards are made in the US. Bareback boards are from Mexico though

Not factually correct on either account. I don't necessarily love black box, but at least keep it factual.
Are you a kook? If you would say this, the answer is “YES”
