your enemy is an etch-a-sketch, martin.

wait... asking well paid pro's to pay for something is crazy. damn... while buying bullshit things like luxury cars or bandanas can suck up a lot of cash. you know a bag of doritos and a dasani can really set you back quite a bit. while you're there doing the same thing to watch the "STARS". get fuckin' real you dick riding chode. it's not like they're a state sports team actually drawing revenue for said state. shallow self interest doesn't impress me nor does it allow entitlement.

it's a business venture (i.e. promotion) and i make a wise crack in a less than serious manner and you're assuming ass thinks that i'm ungrateful for a tour that didn't even roll through my town.

It's about respect man, first think of how much publicity these shops are getting for hosting this tour on top of the fact that these riders are kind of like guests at the shop.  You hook up guests with free refreshments when they are busting their ass at the demo.  Doesn't seem to be a big deal to me.

It's not about respect, it's about the razor thin margins on food.  It's the promoter's fault, not some poorly paid hot dog slinger.

it really isn't a big deal, i'm just talking shit for fun. well the shop slangs the product etc... and the stops are probably have something to do with the volume of merchandise and money they make for said distributor/company. motherfuckers have money, bring a fucking jug of water and snacks is all i'm saying do what regular folks do. i guess the shop should of had spicy tuna rolls and fiji water for these stuntwood serious types.

ps... i'm joking about the fiji. spicy tuna however would be the shit... i made myself hungry. fuck.

You should of catered the demo(s) with zero/shit you own money and wrote it off as a business expense homeboy.

wow, you're dropping knowledge; thanks homeboy!!

it was meant to be a joke, ain't no free lunch, homeboy. perhaps i can join the corporate end of your brands with such practical knowledge i'm dropping on you... any openings? i can save you bills while delivering inferior products wait... you already do that. damn.

I've been to thousands of demos and gotten waters/lunches out of the deal!! I guess it is pretty Whitney Houston of me to think the water should be free at a demo.

...then you hit me with a product diss! Most of our boards are made at the same woodshop as Deluxe and Kayo and the rest are made at the best woodshop in China. I'm assuming you don't like me or the BB brands and I appreciate your cunning wit, but if your goal is to diss me, you might want to spit something real cause so far you're off the mark.

I don't think anyone has had a good Zero/Mystery board. And don't you think saying your boards are made in "the best woodshop in China" makes you sound a bit like an oxymoron?

Can't speak for Mystery but I've never stepped on a bad Zero board in my life.  I'm riding one now and it has been one of the hands down best boards I've ever had, albeit I just broke the tail (which was my own fault, plus I've been skating the board for months on end beforehand).

Just because you have the privilege of replying to JT doesn't mean you need to try so hard at keeping the attention on you.  You're making yourself out to be twice the idiot you already are, and that's the last thing you need I assure you.  You remind me of a local park faggot that waits for the top guy there to throw away a broken board so you can go grab it and fuck yourself with it later.

The only ones we're making now are P2's and they feel like a normal board, but they last longer; can't see the beef w that

Aren't Mystery, Slave, and Zero wood the same? Does that mean that Slave and Mystery boards are only gonna be P2 now too? P2 boards are good and a Jon Allie board sounds pretty good right now.
