Mike Carroll on the future of Crailtap

[Johnny Rad]

MC Talking about what that Kasper dude did at the end of the interview almost confirms what Sporting-company apologists keep denying. The shoe companies are powerful enough now to be trading dudes between board companies because a marketing guy in a cubicle has drawn up an "image plan strategy" for a "hot new prospect" or some bullshit like that.

Jenkem is like TMZ of skateboarding.

[close]

Ride Channel disagrees. Jenkem at least has quotes from the horses mouth. Fucking Ride Channel can't wait to copy and paste their article into their website saying they had breaking news.

[close]

yeah this couldn't be further from accurate. jenkem is good shit. ride channel is garbage. if they hired me their title blocks may actually be worth reading.

marc johnson just got kicked off chocolate
no more christmas carroll's for marc.

Marc Johnson really Fudged up this time
Chocolate melts Marc off the team amid scandal

[Atiba Applebum]

mj is skateboarding so bojack horseman now.

[castillo's curls]

Oh yeah? What’s that?
I have a 20-year theory. When we started celebrating 20 years of Girl, Brian [Anderson] and Alex [Olson] quit. When we started celebrating 20 years of Chocolate, Gino [Iannucci] quit. No good things happen at 20 years.

This answer makes me think that the Fourstar rumor must be true. Fourstar was founded in 1996 ...

[straight]

also im suprised how many people are viewing this thread

[mattchew]

However idk what Jerry Hsu is going to do

Drop an incredible part in Emerica - Made 2 and keep skating for chocolate because he has nothing to do with this?

[pointandclick]

Jenkem traffic overload, site down

slap is struggling too.

[givecigstosurfgroms]

 MJ is worshiped but everyone is that's being thrown out the window because when Mike Carroll speaks people listen.  You see Carroll was there forming the sport, as soon as that ground work was laid down a year later along shows up marc johnson on the scene.  Carrols an OG and MJ is a robot in comparison.

I'm curious how Carroll feels about Guy, he really only mentions how Eric deserved more in the question about those two leaving Girl.

[close]

I was also curious about this.

Well Guy did drop off for like a decade and in that time Koston was the best street skater. The face of Girl was Rick, Carroll and Koston - I think it reflects that rather than diminishing Guy

You know it's drama, but it sound real good.

Oh man, that made me laugh.

Funny, reflecting over the last 30 years, it occurs to me that watching money enter skateboarding has been like watching cancer moving through the body. This crailtap shit feels like we just lost a major limb.

On the one hand, I respect a strong "no spoilers" policy...

hahahaha. perfect.

[ZEBRA]

What a gnarly interview. I like how some people are saying how shitty it is for Carrol to do this, but probably love the 90's World days of Rocco taking over.

I don't doubt that theory of these big brands trying to take people out. That's how these corporate companies are run for the most part.

I think I'll be buying a Girl or Chocolate soon. Haha.

[Robert Baratheon]

Ol Dirty Carroll likes it raw.

I really thought it was progressing into a 'best wishes' type of send off and it then turned into the Red Wedding.

Spectacular.

A testament to how many people don't lurk and don't care about what we say here.

[wake and bacon]

ride channel next week

"you won't believe what MJ and BA did with the strap-on Carroll sent!"

[Green Bastard]

Ride Channel is probably taking most of the server space

To all the industry people lurking here:

Hi,

My name is GAY and I just found out I'm losing my job. I'm good at washing dishes and/or cleaning grout. I'm a sound engineer by trade, but I'm willing to do anything...and I do mean ANYTHING, for a living.

Please hit me up if you have any openings at your company.

Core brands only please.

While everyone from Crail is in here think we could get a run of these as a throwback of sorts in an upcoming season:

[ttching!]

[doublesteveburger]

When routine bites hard,
And ambitions are low.
And resentment rides high,
But emotions won't grow.
And we're changing our ways, taking different roads.

Then Marc, Marc will tear us apart again.
Marc, Marc will tear us apart again.

2016 is officially the year corporate sports brands like Nike and Adidas are destroying skateboarding industry and ruining people relationships and friendships.
