dont see him .....
-
david gonzales has the biggest lips i have ever seen
-
Rowley was just talkin about him in his crossfire interview " needs to get of the purple haze", but no way their practiclly inseprable. But he needs to cut that cab and backside shit out, some variation please , you cant just keep winning contests using the same three tricks.
-
Thats a big mistake on their part letting Bastien go,I bet he'll get on a new sponsor quickly tho.It'd be cool to see Bastien on Chocolate or AWS/habitat.

Just what every company wants, a pain in the ass cocky stoner who cheers for himself at a contest.
My guess is blind offered him a shit ton of money.
-
are you sick in your head or something. he should start a new company together with andy mac and corey duffel
-
http://www.blitzdistribution.com/site2/index.html - he's going on tour, maybe they put him on Flip. . .
That little big lipped girls going on that tour as well
-
That big lipped girl can skate better than you mate!
-

Wonder if they used a can opener?

what the fuck, why would you say something like that.... i could see him on AWS, because alien workshop has already gone down the shitter, but there is no way he could be on habitat...
-
I want to know why bastien was one of the featured guys in that thrasher book
-
They really should have replaced Bastien for his brother Agutus now theres someone that actually skates with style.
-
haha, the site has been 'under construction' for seriously around 5 years
thats fucked
-
why would they launch a site when every other section is (COMING SOON)
-
bastien.. maybe stereo?
..everyones gettin on that team.
..but then again, i wouldnt be surprized if baker picks him up.
=\
-
His name is still on the site when I go there, between Rodrigo and Bob's names on that list of pros.
-
B
-
first off, stereos done, giant dropped it, i just thought i'd let you know that. secondly, now that they got rodrigo, they get to kick the other "black guy" off? you racist pricks. hes still on, hes done filming for the flip video pretty much, you will be surprised.
-
WHY THE FUCK ARE YOU LOOKING AT ANOTHER MANS LIPPS TO THE POINT OF YOU HAD TO POST TALKING ABOUT THEM..
THE M4M SKATE SITE IS ~~~~~~~~~> THAT WAY YOU FAG !
-
bastien on chocolate?!? please don't!
-

no, like some one else said no variation, and also the fact that hes been said to be a douche bag.
and stereo done? i hope not.
-
He's not listed, nor can I see any photo's of him amongst the rest of the team photos... Shit looks to me like he's off.
-
that pic seriously looks like my cousin if he were black. like, change his skin tone a bit and voila.
-
call me crazy, but why does no one think bastien would be on cliche? seems a bit more logical than chocolate
-
I think it's Bastiens time to go back to Europe. Didn't he win the best trick at Mystic cup this year again? Maybe Lordz will make a board for him?
-
Cliche? i dont think so.
actually, i dont think he fits on any team, besides flip cause he has been for quite long.
i say the new and improved (?) World Industries. They need someone to win contests.

i was thinking the same...

plan b?
-
plan b would make sense, they need a black rider now that drl is gone.
-

gosh, i hope not.
maybe they will shuffle him over to birdhouse
-
He was still on Flip during the last Mystic Cup, and it was last Sunday, so I think that the webmaster just made a mistake.
-
perhaps the webmaster is stoned too.
-
Yeah, judging by the quality of the website, I doubt it's a completely reliable source of information. Even if he is a total pothead, I doubt they would kick him off. It's nothing compared to what Penny has done over the years, and besides Bastien has amazing talent and is utterly marketable, which is what Flip go for.
-
lots of rumours that bastien is on plan B.
i'm sure people on here don't like him but kids and other pros always seem to be into him.
-
bastien didnt get kicked off
he quit all of his sponsors
-
^^^^ Bastien went Ricky Williams? Sick.
-
he's probably gathered enough cash from contests to be stoned the rest of his life
someone please laugh
-
He may be cocky, but the dude has some serious skills. I can't see him on any other company except Flip
-
he should get on krooked. arrggh
-
plan b would make sense, they need a black rider now that drl is gone.
yea dawg definetely. companies make decisions about what riders they are gonna put on based on race. it doesn't have to do with talent or marketability. no way. they need to have a diversified team and at least one black rider to show they aren't closet racists.
-
it makes sense that someone would leave flip with the amount of pros that they now have. There is only so much money to go around on a team with such big names on it. It would be cool if he formed a new European based team with flo and javier sarmiento but I doubt that will actually happen
-
^ speaking of...what's the deal with javier and a board sponsor?

I see your sarcasm but you obviously dont know shit about the industry.... Skill is probably number 4 on the priority list
-
in barcelona, theres this rumor floating around that bastien was convinced by natives from his home place that if he gave up skating he would become immortal, through some voodoo shit. apparently to test his new found greatness he jumped off a tree and broke both his legs. at least he didnt die!
-
His native place being some small town in the south of France.
It's like a jungle sometimes...

brian wenning was saying apparently bastien was telling alot of people he saw some witch doctor bitch that put some wierd voodoo cast on him when he was young that gives him amazing abilities and if he gets salt water on the wound she cut in his hand he will lose his abilities
sounds like bastien is just one big ball of floating shit, i bet hes actually from south central and just likes to run his mouth. i hope he ends up on hectik.
-
Lyon ain`t small
-
That's ok, cause he's not from Lyon.
-
Bastien quit skateboarding all together!
He quit all of his sponsors to play guitar!
he wont end up on any board co or any of that shit....
-
Do you think Whalecock skateboards will pick him up???
-
no one would kick off bastien, and hes been on flip forever so hes still on, its a fact

Effective immediately:
Due to irreconcilable differences of opinion, Flip Skateboards has decided to terminate sponsorship and support of Bastien Salabanzi.
Although this has been a very difficult decision, we believe it to be in the best long term interests of both parties.
Flip wishes Bastien good health and success in his future.
-
and you heard this where.
-
by email from blitz dist...maybe you should subscribe to their newsletter as well
-
i checked my email, youre right.
bastien is off flip for sure.
-
i heard bastien got on ALIS
-
if he wasn't on quiksilver, i could see him on element.....or is he still on quik?
-
He's a cocky bastard, who irritates the hell out of me by winning all the contest with the same tricks. Bleh
-
nah i have nothing but respect for him. he was ruling contests way before fucking sheckler and lutzka and he rips, you cant deny it. but this is the worst mistake flip has made, he is gonna get picked up by which ever company he goes to he gonna explode and be huge i think, on this one flip fucked up

I'd have to say hard drugs is the worst decision he's made

ive heard industry rumblings about him going to sugar sports..
-

Why cause he's been seen with bags of sugar? ::)
-
hahahaah nice. but yeah there is no fucking chance he is going to sugar sports
-

-
Sugar? ahahahahaha

-

I also heard he got on Alis and everyone on the team left including the team manager. And I also heard they kicked off everyone else so they would afford to tke Bastien. And I also heard that Alis went under.
But the only fact is that the Alis guys are all gone now. Too many rumors...uh.

HE WAS a ego fuck. good for flip killing the Ego cab fliper contest jock.
