Elijah Berle on FA?

[doublesteveburger]

Didn't somebody mention Kevin Rodriguez starting a new brand under the f.a. umbrella?

Umbrella Skateboards confirmed.

This is a great move for FA, shitty one for the crail camp. Berle's a total powerhouse. Crail camp can't catch a break these days.


Also, only acceptable dreads on white people are crust punk rat tail dreads but that died out when trust punks cried wolf.

This would be such a disappointment, but when i read that someone else was leaving my first instinct was Kenny.

nope.

[Silky Johnson]

Can't imagine Kenny leaving, isn't he known to be extremely loyal to his sponsors? I mean he waited for Planet Earth to fold until going to Crailtap.

loyalty at 26 and loyalty at 40 are much different things..especially when you have kids and money is involved

[IHOP]

I know Crail is struggling but is any board company really paying these days, at least a noticeable amount difference wise (not talking an extra 100 to 200 a month). Kenny has Cons which is clearly his primary source of income by a wide margin. I can see companies like Element doing it on the backs of their apparel and previously DGK, past that I can't see you making significantly more on royalties with numbers over Chocolate.

At this point, it seems your board brand just legitimizes you and gives you a platform to get big shoe sponsors. Seems more board sponsor moves are more motivated by wanting to hang-out with your friends, people being wronged, or they don't like the new direction.

THIS. no clue on speculation of who is leaving but girl/choco have marooned themselves on Crail Island and some people may need to leave to take a shoe contract that will pay their bills.

[Francis Xavier]

Elijah is on 917 because I saw him on their Insta story.
confirmed and unconfirmed

Sounds like Girl is looking to acquire a big name from the outside.

Charlie Watts?

Vans orchestrated power moves?

[Eggie Vedder]

I saw him yesterday with Bill Strobeck and a bunch of FA kids in New York. He was skating an FA AVE board so he might be filming something with them or he’s just on vacation and skating FA boards. Half the Girl/Chocolate team skated Anti Hero boards anyway so it might not mean anything.

I think it would be a cool fit if true though.

[mattchew]

As long as there is more footage of him, I don't really care where he ends up.
Dude is so fucking good.

[Robert Baratheon]

Vans orchestrated power moves?

Is Vans taking a page from the Nike/Adidas playbook to destroy Crail by leveraging riders shoe checks?

I'd say so if Berle actually rode for Lakai.

[augustmoon]

Elijah Berle is a hipster at heart (see his Foundation days); he can't resist the gravitational pull of the Supreme camp.

[expired]

I think he'd fit hockey or Antihero, be sick to see him on a tour with Antihero

All i've been waiting for is another Beauty and the Beast.

He's going to be on Hockey, and another Chocolate rider just dipped as well, going to be on another trendy new board brand

Jerry on Otherness, Marc is off.

i never thought Marc was on, but more a guest board situation, but I left a comment asking about a reissue of the Shannon May "Cindy Crawford" graphic and he referred to Otherness as "we".....

moral of the story: they're reissuing the Shannon May Cindy Crawford board!!!

This right here^^^
I've tried to draw my own Cindy board once every year or so forever. Never satisfying enough. Wouldn't call Otherness trendy either. But it's the only brand I've bought 6 boards from at once in more than 20 years.

Elijah on Hockey I could easily see. Hopefully not though. Chocolate needs to put out more footy. Doesn't have to be fancy or long. The Weekdays are great, but I need more.

Raven on the other hand could easily go to Football Skateboards. I'd it just his build? Or why does he come across super jockish?

Otherness is Marc Johnsons company, i think Thom Hornung handles the business side of things but Marc isn't just a rider.

[Shifty Flip]

Remember the thread of all the names Marc has copywritten? Wasn't Otherness on that list? Either way, I agree with you. Thom runs shit, Marc isn't just a guest, and just like that, we forgot about Elijah.
Need more fresh Elijah footage either way.
Until then, I'm rewatching Barker curb dancing super OG spot

[Paletta]

Saw on someones story on IG that Elijah was hanging in NY wearing an FA tee.
Think its a forgone conclusion now.
Thats a big loss for Chocolate.
They really need some impressive fresh blood as the "Trunk Boys" don't seem to have breathed life into the company like they were expected to

They fucked themselves by using shitty wood for too long and not coming out with enough content to keep the kids attention.
