I’ve got one from @Sativa Lung that is lightly skated in the Rowley shape. Pretty sure he was using his own concave for these and the shape looks cool. Was anybody else on the team?

[close]

Pedro barros I think, early on their was an interview with Geoff he spoke about Pedro having the fire or someshit

[close]

I don't know if Pedro was actually on in, I think that was just a guest board. Actually iirc that was around the time that Pedro had like 3 boards out on 3 different companies (freedom, pocket pistols, and someone else I can't recall) haha.

Haven't seen anything from Pedro Barros in years. He was gnarly like ten years ago. Injuries?

I think he just does the Brazilian pro thing of skating primarily contests. There was a recent clip of him on vert which went around. I don’t know if it was old but it was fucking bananas.

[slapcurbsnotwomen]

even Life Extention lasted longer

DOG too I think, who else was on the team besides David Reyes and twuan?

[Allen.]

Just get on toy machine already, enough is enough.

Ya know… this would be cool

both rowley & pedro would be a perfect fit for toy. pedro could be next mike fraiser. I don't recall them having a vert skater since him?

Templeton just needs to put him on Toy Machine

I’d like to think Rowley would sell more boards than some modern pros, but that might be boomer delusion on my part

He'd probably sell more on the first run than Deshawn did during his entire stint on TM

He's NOT interested in a retirement home

Some say Life Extention still lasts to this very day. And by some I mean Kenny Hoyle.

[Hyliannightmare]

Can't believe it lasted this long

Rowley x furby?

[layzieyez]

Freedome was so sick.

I can’t believe there weren’t an avalanche of deck sales coming from the numerous full parts Geoff put out for his brand.

From Hawaii to Georgia, all I ever saw people skating were his decks. How can he pull the plug when his brand has been influencing skating so much?

I think he had that guest board come out after those clips on that Vans video. It felt like for a second Pedro was indeed heating up.

I know he had a set up video where he said he was starting a brand.

PS: Rowley was sending boards and I think that Angel Teeth skater/model/musician had something to do with an aristocat looking graphic.

[ungzilla]

heard he's setting up an onlybanks site

I just interviewed him recently. He has been using profits from his beer brand, LayBack, to build skateparks around Brazil. He's developed a network of AirBnb-style accommodation with things to skate and a bar to unwind at day's end.

god dam lol

a little game to play on the flip website: under each rider on the team page theres a "watch" button that links to a youtube video, see if you can guess the video before clicking

https://flipskateboards.com/pages/team

on another note, they have basically become a copy of Blind. no cohesion, no full lengths, no tours, entirely distributed team, and i doubt any of their riders could even name the whole roster.its also weird to see the younger riders wear t shirts with an OG sorry logo on it when they werent even born when the video came out. the only thing they had going for them were the legacies of the sorry OGs which are gradually fading into obscurity

[radcunt]

Good to know it started apparently

[Atiba Applebum]

He got screwed over by Flip, but still managed to do his own thing for quite a bit.   I may not like much of what post-vegan Rowley likes or is into, but I don’t really feel like piling on

[Prostate Exam]

So he is not willing to hand out Free Dome anymore?

[Síota]

Isn't pedo Ed vegan ? Cannot see him putting on a ex vegan now pro hunter/past his prime Rowley.
Gotta kill em to save em.

I bet they both wish they would have sold a long time ago.

[OwlGreen]

About fucking time they get Geoff and Tom on Palace.

why would palace do that?  why should palace do that?

[brucewillis]

Pedro now owns a board brand, Privê Guest. He's still killing in contests and it's pretty relevant here, still blasting huge airs and 540's.

[Kombuch-A-Holic]

I would love some Flip/Rowley reissues in time for the XLT drop.
