Jack O'Grady on Ace

I think he's a good fit. Thoughts?

Perfect fit. Go fast, grind loud, wobble while you ride out.

I understand saying this for like a board company but other hardgood teams don't really have a vibe IMO. I feel like camraderie is mostly exclusive to board companies.

I honestly wouldn't care what trucks I'm riding as long as they don't suck.

I agree it pertains more to say a board sponsor or clothing sponsor than other sponsors, but I've always felt Ace has a certain overall type of rider.

At least more so than other one-size-fits all brands like Thunder.

Ace used to (or maybe still does) also sponsor fresh guys like Matt Miller and Raul Navarro. I think a truck company always has to have some outliers on the team just to show their product works for everyone. Eg Duffel and drehoble were on the all fresh venture

Honestly who gives a shit unless it means getting more footage? AF-1s aren't super far off from the Indy Standards he rode so it's probably not that different for him really. The only sponsors that really matter are boards, shoes, clothes- trucks are down there with wheels and bearings but at least Ace does release videos.

I feel like Classics are always on sale.

I nabbed a set of 55s and 44s when they were like $24/pair on skatewarehouse.
