I do believe that these are the end days. I was quite sad to hear the news from a good friend and Crail Rep. Let us bow our heads.

IMO fourstar always had the best team, but none of the clothes worth buying... It won't change much for me, except I will miss the  fourstar trips videos.

Not sure of the pullout date. But one sure thing is that a larger shit storm exists. With MJ leaving Lakai things can't be going well for the rest of the herd.

fourstar will go down as a classic company, not for the clothes, but for the team and consistently amazing tour videos.

plus the best ads

Reynolds/4 Star did the bucket hat thing back in The End days. Too ahead of its time.

skateboarding is so fucked... Get ready for Nike, Adidas and Mountain Dew to headline the 2020 olympic skateboard championships. All other skate companies are dead... Other than the board companies that Nike allows... I'm sorry, i'm drunk and am pissed about the news of Mj leaving lakai... but seriously, I can see it now, High school varsity skateboard teams, we let shitty sports brands take over skateboarding.

this happens every decade, i doubt skateboarding will be as popular as it is now in ten years, skateboarders will reclaim the industry, core shops will survive

One of the best tour videos



Best tour video of all-time! So bummed if the news is true, I've had quite a bit of their stuff through the years. My favourite was an artist special t-shirt with the sillouette of the Tokyo skyline.

I was actually at that demo in Tokyo. I skated all day on the Saturday, then got hammered in a club in Roppongi and bought a pill off a Columbian guy that turned out to be full of acid. Fully thought the stairs in the nightclub were flowing with water. Me and my buddy were staying in one of those capsule hotels so I had to sit about drinking beer until 8am until it had worn off enough to go to sleep in the thing. Was still pretty fucked up at the demo. It was heartbreaking, I still can't imagine a heavier team to see at a demo but it fucking rained. At least we got to see BA skate. I know everyone says BA is gay but when I grabbed him for a photo he was like "watch out l'm kind of sweaty". Didn't seem that open to physical contact! Maybe he is just not into drunk ginger Scottish guys on ecstasy/acid?

On a brighter side, kids on steroids will be able to flip their boards over a whole bunch of stairs. Next level stuff.

I think gay people are also self conscious of when they are sweaty dude. Sounds like he was just being a decent human being.

That's kind of sick that you're drunk right now. I wish I was drunk.

Also I know this happens every 10 years, but I think this is the one. We pushed so hard to get over this wall and make skateboarding big, and now we finally got over the wall. The Dam has broken and I think skateboarding is here to stay. It is a mainstream activity now, like snowboarding. It won't die again. It will probably shrink and grow cyclically, just like everything does, but we won't see a bottoming out of skateboarding like we saw in decades prior.

NO gay people are at their most comfortable when they're drenched in sweat and grossing everybody out.

If I were gay that would be my go to. BA must be frigid.

You don't honestly think that 1998 was the first time a bucket hat was worn in skateboarding or popular culture do you? It goes in and out of fashion in cycles.
Are you a kook? If you would say this, the answer is “YES”
I quit skating for a time due to piling out

Agreed. I don't understand the problem with their quality...it's a 50$ pair of pants/shirt. I thought the quality was fine.
