That doesn't make business sense that Burton would "hold" DNA for a few years, but I'm no business man. And also I agree with everyone that Dayton Ohio is the epicenter of East Coast, despite being 600 miles from the Atlantic Ocean.

It was crazy.It was also the first time I'd seen black guys skating and legit girl skaters.

I do fully back his buying of DNA though, I don't think we will harm these company's.[close]Yeah that would be crazy if he axed it....considering he is attempting to only purchase AWS not DNA. I love how everyone just speculates and blows everything out of proportion on here.

You're saying that he isn't buying all of DNA, other people are saying he is, so who knows what he's actually going to do?

You're saying that he isn't buying all of DNA, other people are saying he is, so who knows what he's actually going to do?[close]Burton COO Mike Rees sent a global email to all at the company mid-afternoon on Wednesday confirming that Burton is discussing the sale. Rees's email: "As some of you may have heard, pro skater Rob Dyrdek made an announcement last night at the Zumiez $100K party that he was buying Alien Workshop. "While Rob's message was definitely premature, we did want to confirm that we are in an open dialog with him about a possible purchase. At this point, please note that nothing is confirmed, and we will absolutely do a formal announcement when and/or if that transition happens."

Dyrdek will have a tough time finding a financial institution to loan him 10+ Million dollars these days especially a skateboard company. He will probably need 40% down instead of the usual 20% down. My guess is he has some other investors involved in this deal.
we're all here for the gayness
I;m sure i;m not the only dc/monster/subaru type guy here
Just a few things to think about:Rob has been investing money for years and years, since way before things got big.He has had a few mtv shows.He has been involved in a few movies.He is either a share holder or well paid employee of dc shoes.He was/is an agent for many professional skaters.He runs street league.He rides for monster energy drinks.There is no shortage of big money in his life. Buying dna in it's entirety from burton is well within his reach. But he is a smart man and will make the deal right.
I love how everyone is quantifying his various incomes, as if the assumption is he paid in cash.
Sweet, Can't wait for all the exclusive Monster and Young and Restless Boards.
Habitat/AWS get so much hype now, back in the day they were more independent style and were big time east coast brands, now they're so cal as shit. fuck em
