Anybody else know anything about Markovich's new company?
Him, Lizard King, James Atkins, Richie Belton and some other guys, I don't remember, I just peeped the catalog real quick. Stoked that Nick Yamasato from Hawaii is a flow dude though.
Sounds like another grand opening, grand closing, but maybe it'll work, maybe not.
I still like Markovich no matter how many companies he's jumped on and off.

The last two companies where not his fault so I don't hold it against him. He is still a great skater.

True... if you remember his video parts in Winona Riders and the 101 videos you'll quickly forget about all the recent company jumps that's he's gone through. What's the wood/distribution company they're using?
-
cough Color cough (one of the best parts he ever filmed and J Wray man that part is still amazing).
-
no....please no.

Oh yeah... definitely Color. My personal favorite parts were from that old G&S video and 101 though. He's been hammering out good video parts for years.

Sorry man, I don't read every thread, and that one was only posted like three hours before mine.
Anyway, thanks for pointing that out.

Jeremiah Babb out of the ATL is on there too, that dude fuckin' rips like no other, expecting big things
-
As much as I like Markovich, I give it 6 months.
-
Kris rips, but Lizard should stay with Think. Good for Babb too though. He deserves coverage.
-
DEH DEE DEE!!!!!

What's up Everybody.
I know I dropped off the map for a while, but I'm back. This past year has been a crazy one for me. I quit Blind, got married, had knee surgery and last but definitely not least I started Crimson Skateboards.
After several months doing a little bit of everything, no that's not true, I've done a lot of everything getting Crimson going but finally my dream of owning a skateboard company and starting it from the ground up came true.
The guys on Crimson are all amazing skateboarders and most importantly, we are all friends. The team is myself, James Atkin, Richie Belton and Lizard King as the Pro's and Rick Eusey, Danny Scher, Jeremiah Babb and Thomas Bonilla on as the AM's. Joey Oregero, Nick Yamasato and Micheal Prince are on as our Flow kids.
I appreciate all the love you have shown me in the past. Take sometime and browse our site. While you're here, check out the promo video and our fall/winter product. Be sure to check in for team updates, news and the latest Crimson happenings.
Bleed Skateboarding,
Kris Markovich

thats from the web site w/ a full promo on there too ... the promo was saved by the last couple tricks but uh ...

oh FUCK YES! Jeremiah is soo sick
-
Tight pants companies other than baker and zero don't work. Havent they learned from Hollywood, Pig, or Hellrose? The emos will eat up that "bleed skateboarding" for a bit though.
-
how come people don't stick around on think for long?
-
Kris rips 101 and his foundation art bars was amazing. metro by berlin WOW....
-
markovich is way overdue for retirement, in fact i am surprised that fool is even in the game at this point. Not many people can go from lakers jerseys to "art guy" within a few years and still be respected at all.
-
yo that littlle danny scher is raw
-
The team is good: Kris, Lizard and Babb. Yay.
Other than that, it looks a bit suspicious...
But good luck to Kris, I hope this would work out for him.
I think he's had his share of bad luck and sinking ships.
-
Or poor business management and burning bridges? One of my all time favourite skateboarders, but with a sorry wake of closed companies and sponsor hopping, unfortunately. Having said that, I like his artwork and I'm stoked to see it on some boards and shirts.
-
8-10 ten months.
-

Crap... I forgot about Art Bars. Yeah... that was a sick part.
-
I've liked Markovich for awhile, he always skates fast so its enjoyable to watch. Not a classic part of his, but I enjoyed his One Step Beyond section also. Seems cool that he's starting his own company although I'm wondering why Lizard would leave Think just after they gave him a pro board. Does someone know the address for their site? I'd like to check that promo out.
-

Art bars is my favorate part from him and yeah him skating to Metro was sick and it was a live version - I think, but I know for sure it aint the studio version.
But I was dissapointed in his Element World tour part.
-
crazy that they used all that footage for a website clip. they should of packed it and put it in the boards or something if theyre not doing that already.
-
What clip??
-
He's referring to the 'promo' that actually lasts three full songs and is pretty long. Its posted on their site and has footy from all the pros and ams.
-
All I get is a logo

Nick Yamasato should have stayed on Natural Koncepts
Lizard should have stayed on Think
I give it about a year......I ain't hatin either, I actually like Kris a lot but his track record is less than stellar. Its also a bad time to start a company right now I don't care who the fuck you got on it.

i agree .

eusey rips and is super nice. about time
-
Lizard isn't on yet, according to the front page news post. i hope he doesn't leave Think.

I'm surprised so many people on the boards actually care about Think. They've had a good team a long time ago (Phil Shao days) but recently that company has just been a stepping stone to move onto bigger and better things (except for maybe going to Darkstar i.e. Adam Dyet).
-
Markovich is a rad skater. So fast, maybe not fast as a train, but comes close. I'm pretty stoked on his art right now.
-
But damn! That clip was boring!
-
this company looks rad, best wishes kris. richie has been fucking ripping.
-
Stuff looks good, nice to see that they have some larger sized boards in the line up.
-

Well Kris has already gone and put out a catalog with Lizard's board in it.
SOMEBODY GOT SOME "SPLAINING TO DO!!
-
richie belton has reached his peak, if they add erik hamamoto they'll be unstoppable.

Word on the streets is that he stayed on Think because the other companies he is on would drop him if he left.
-
Yeah.....I saw the catalog with Lizards board in it....the product looks really good...not sure who is pressing the stuff.....I do like the fact that Markovich is using his own paintings and whatnot for the graphics.....I like his style.....almost Dada influenced...hopefully all will be well.

a friend of mine i skate with is doing the second series of boards(artwork) and there going to be sick, i think the boards may be getting pressed through south central(5boro)
-
5boro wood is sick. The shapes are great.
-
this company looks wack as fuck. fuck markovich's shitty art. that shit is garbage. crimson won't last.
-
Lizard is not on Crimson.
-

Dekline and Indy? I can't imagine that they would care.
-
vox, indy, spitfire?
-
Lilzard still on Think, Indy and Spitfire......
-
of all the skaters to have a bidding war over... lizard king
-
gotta create controversy somehow.....keeps people iinterested in what's gonna happen next.....
-
(http://www2.thrashermagazine.com/mt/archives/lizard_hype_ad.jpg)
-
In this controversy one thing's for certain, Lizard King's pay rate just went up. Let the bidding war begin. How much is he worth anyhow?
-
i'm fucking confused
-
He has footage in the never ending promo on crimson's site. I bet that cheesed off the guys at think.
-
So this was the kickback number 1 for Crimson/Markovich. Too bad. He lost the best name of the roster. There always seems to be bad luck involved when Markovich is making business... Who's gonna step up to Lizzies spot? DJ Chavez? Richie Jackson maybe?
-

King Diamond.
-
in markovich's interview on the skateboarding mag website, he said that lizard king called him up asking to be on the team
-
Neil Diamond
King Diamond.
-
how long until the Nuge is on?
-
nuge fits well on the f squad. don't want to join another flopper like hellrose.
-
nuge and markovich aint gonna be on the same squad anytime soon
-
what about that one kid?
you know, that other dude?
-
Not since the Jason Rothmeyer days has such a bidding war occured....I fucking love it....now if only we could get Lizard King footage in two videos at the same time....
PS. Lizard King....give Jason Rothmeyer a call about how to deal with this.
-

Is freaking sweet.
-
soooo whats going on with lizard king? morkovich must be embarassed aha
-
I like chris,but this company looks so bland and generic.In this time in skateboarding industry I dont see it lasting that long,especially with the 8000 other board companies out there right now
