Eli has been skating Becky Factory boards. Don't know much about the company but saw the boards at Exit.

Element? Hope he gets a payday like that

My guess also. Joining Westgate...

Chocolate seems very very unlikely... Can't really picture either on any of the new cool brands (FA, etc., ....). I don't think he's perceived as "cool enough" by those guys (understand : he's not biting the latest new trend like all the NY skaters/models).

Yeah, as long as he's sporting the red bull logo on his hat he will never be added to those teams.  And that logo is disgusting, takes away so much from how god damn amazing he is on a skateboard.

A logo takes away his great style and talent to ride a skateboard?? You people care too much about those little insignificant things. I rather see him with that logo knowing he is getting a good amout of cash than without it.
I once saw him skate in person at the sketchiest spot and i was shocked how easely he was skating it.
I hope he lands on 5boro, would be a sick fit!

Really can't see him going to crailtap, when's the last time they put on some new riders? When did the Trunk boys get on, and has there been anyone since?

It's interesting to think from a sponsor's point of view and think where he is in his career. Do you guys see him as moving to a larger company than expedition or smaller? Zered is one of my top five, I think he's incredible. He seems to have stopped skating big gaps, stairs or rails completely, but he just seems to have moved on to a different style rather than regressing. He still seems to have all the ability.

I could see him on krooked, they don't care too much about corporate shit (bobby is on nike anyway, maybe red bull would be too much, but completely agree with the poster who said he gets a pass.) I could see the quasi guys having an issue with an energy drink sponsor, but I'd love to see him on quasi. 5boro I could see, but he'd probably be taking a big enough pay cut, and I think it's more likely for him to land on a bigger company than expedition than a smaller, and I really don't see him gong back to zoo any time soon. I'm trying to think of his Converse team mate's other board sponsor's.

Tl;dr-sorry I got baked and I'm very interested in speculating Zered's next sponsor.

I don't think he's looking for a bigger paycheck. He strikes me more as someone who would go with a company like 5boro cause they're more authentic. I know Redbull ain't but he's getting paid for that which is like five grand every photo or something with a hat? I thought they had a really good incentive program for their athletes. He talked about it in an interview somewhere.. I'm backing him for 5boro.

PS. Is that him in your sig gif?

Or maybe no board sponsor? The paycheque isnt really too much in the first place probably.

J Casanova was getting 10 grand month. Shit, even if that was your only sponsor paying you, that's pretty good money living in most of the US. Maybe not New York though

I don't think people will every fully comprehend how fucking good Zered is at skateboarding.

I never really paid attention to Zered until one day I randomly found the Zoo York videos on Netflix and binge watched all of them. He seems really rad and I like his style. Definitely embodied the baggy pants/cupsole era to the fullest

I wouldn't say it was a "good fit" really, more of an out-of-left-field addition, which just makes it cooler.

Somebody already pointed out that they have a history of East coast riders, obviously, and for me personally, the Jerry Hsu addition to the team gained them a lot points. This would be along the same line, adding somebody who is long-term established and respected, to appeal to some of the older guys, who may not be crazy about some of the newer additions. Still don't think it will happen, but I think it would be cool if it did.

5 boro or element would make more sense but id be super hyped to see him on chocolate.

They need an east coast switch ripper and girl/chocolate would bring him the recognition he truly deserves.

If he was in the last 5boro vid though holy shit!

Thanks for taking a stab, but crail blows it with East Coast skaters. They are a CA company and never ever get the East Coast thing correct. So...MJ is from North Cakkkalak...woohoo...he's been in CA for too long to even remotely claim EC allegiance...they lost Rizzo...please, tell me where they got it right?
