people always say certain pros deserve to get paid to not do a whole lot because of their legacy. why not jerry hsu? what about someone like ba who rides for anti-hero and nike but barely puts out footage these days?
[close]

Because BA’s name alone brings those companies enough revenue to justify paying him. Emerica looked at the numbers, and must have saw that Jerry’s name doesn’t. Therefore if he’s not going to film or promote anything, and his name alone isn’t bringing you that much revenue, then there’s no real financial reason to keep him around and pay him.

Well yeah, should have said “BA’s name probably brings enough revenue”

Quit dry-snitching BA. Hope that dude gets paid forever. If he found a nice quiet place to chill, but still get checks, why you gotta ruin that for him?

Sponsorship wise, Jerry should still be coasting off the Made 2 part through 2019 even though the song/edit did him no favors. Shit was comparable to what AVE did in Propeller if you consider career length/industry status.

Honestly, one or two fillers aside, that part was probably the best thing Jerry did since bag of suck, does not get the credit it deserves.

On this note, how is it possibly in the interest of a brand like Emerica not to put their videos online? Is it a music licensing issue? I'd be super keen to watch Made 2 but it doesn't seem to be online. If I were running a company, I would want all our video productions easily available online in HD (or good quality). Whats the point of making a video if its not accessible? No one is buying hard copies these days.

Fuck yeah! Thanks.

So crazy to think that both Reynolds and Jerry put out such good parts so late in their careers. Rewatching Jerry's part, is madness that Emerica kicked him off.

I like Jerry a lot. He's in your favorite skater's top 10 faves. From a business perspective, he's a B minus level pro in his mid to late 30s that doesn't generate the sales to warrant the lack of output. He was pretty hot when Emerica took him on. Perhaps they can pay newer guys a lot less than what he makes.

Perhaps they saw him leaving chocolate without having any back up plan and a lack luster IG showing as a sign that he doesn’t care...?

no one should feel bad for jerry. he seems to be doing exactly what he wants and even though he may have been upset in the moment about the way things went down at emerica he admits it now makes sense and hes better off overall. nothing is preventing him from having any big sponsors. he just doesnt want it.

Maybe we can get those famous "Jerry" shirts made again, sell them to Jerry fans and donate the profits to Jerry. He'd never have to worry about money ever again.

My favorite Jerry ever is Made 2 Jerry. Awesome fits and just being awesome all around. He's the coolest black cat ever.  Also, I recently bought some Emericas at my local skate outlet including a pair of blue Reynolds 3. I like my blue Reynolds 3 that much that I don't want to skate them. :)

The Jerry shirts have been sitting in customs in Singapore because of a legal dispute over who owns the image of the image of the shirt on the shirt. A whole fucking ship of them I am so fucked.

Someone needs to bite the bullet and pay this man to skateboard. He has alot left to give. I would think Emerica would have just reduced his pay based on his lack of promotion. Still gotta be worth $1000 a month to have Jerry's name associated with your shoes.

The original video in the first post was removed, and on the podcasts site it says the current version is v2.0 and the filename says "redacted"

do we know what was removed?
There was a thread about it but I think it might've gotten deleted? They basically just cut out the part where Jerry was saying the vibe of the Supreme stores was lame and he didn't like going there.
