Grayson Fletchers onn Birdhouse, btw.
-
the purple stain board looked alright, I thought
-
Cause no one gives a shit
-
He’s been on for a minute. I think I mentioned it in the Tate thread, but didn’t think it was worth a mention, cause I honestly didn’t think he’d get a board.
But when was the last time a brand had a vert squad so heavy?
Tate
Schaar
Reese
Gui khury
Grayson
Lizzie
Elliot
Hell even jaws can skate vert
Plus they have a bunch of people of flow right now

Birdhouse, huh? Well, better than arbor, I suppose.

He's a damn hunk so thank you for starting this thread that's oozing with hot, hot heat.

Speaking of birdhouse whatever happened to that Ben Raybourn kid? He used to rip but I stopped skating for like 10 years and when I started up again I haven't really kept up with the industry stuff

Ben Raybourn seems to be doing really well. He’s riding for Metal and IPath and living in Texas.
Check out his Chromeball interview:

Damn those 350 monthly listeners must be raking in the dough. One of my bands got up to around 6000 monthly listeners for a few months and it got us a whopping 90 cents lmfao. Fr though dude is really nice and rips at skating, wishing him the best. Also shoutout Ben Raybourne another super nice dude. Had a random spaghetti dinner with him once. Hope Greyson is gettin paid too.

You also have to get a certain amount of plays (I think it’s 1-5000?) before they start paying.

Good for him, he deserves a decent board sponsor

I'm not one to judge anyone's cringe. But I posted elsewhere that I read his interview in Thrasher (the one with his cover). He was very open about his mental health issues and overall did not seem in a good space. For me that leads to leeway and a bit more empathy in regards to behavior.

I've actually really been wanting to get a birdhouse deck, but my local doesn't have them. I've put a few in my cart on their website before, but haven't been able to pull the trigger.
I remember when I first started skating my brother who already skated had a Tony Hawk Birdhouse board at the time, and honestly I'm yearning for some of that nostalgic adolescent bliss.
-

Birdhouse used to be available in sporting goods stores, but it's been replaced with Tony Hawk boards, which cost around $30-40. My guess is that Tony Hawk Skateboards, Hawk Shoes, and the video game deals bring in enough money to keep Birdhouse going.
It's unfathomable to think that current-day Birdhouse makes profit, but maybe younger kids that are into contests and Woodward dig Birdhouse.

Homie did a sick kickflip into the Vans Combipool (RIP) a couple of weeks ago:

Birdhouse is still a sporting goods beginner prebuilt complete and budget brand overseas. I imagine that licensing is where the bulk of the income comes from.

Is there a link to the interview? Does Thrasher even have interviews posted outside of the physical mag?

Hes honestly a lot more entertaining to watch than most tranny dudes, goes fast as fuck and has a pretty loose style, i fuck with it. Pay the man (he seems pretty dumb but thats OK)
-
He is known for def calling kids at the skatepark in Hawaii the very unfavorable “N” word back in the day. Him and his dad are racist surf trash pieces of shit.
-
He has a really sick style cmon yall
Plagued by surf royalty nepotism but backs it up w insane tricks
Sometimes I just worry like how impact can one dude take from running out all of ur bails on vert? Seems like a leg snapper

Let’s get a list of those “events” . Go ahead…I’ll wait.
He fucked that bowl up before he did his kickflip. Skates pad less. None of you are even dropping in on something that big. Weak little cockroaches trolling in here.

I couldn't give less of a fuck about Grayson Fletcher. Fuck neonazis and all of their ilk.
My post was in reference to the dude who said "He fucked that bowl up before he did his kickflip. Skates pad less. None of you are even dropping in on something that big. Weak little cockroaches trolling in here."

You're the one who made the assumption that I was calling you out instead of the dork who called people cockroaches for not digging Grayson's skating, dingus. I answered your question and even quoted what I was calling out. You coming at me with the assumption that I'm some nazi sympathizer is fucking bullshit.

My 11 year old daughter rides a Lizzie Armanto Birdhouse deck. When she needs a new board I guarantee she'll want another one. She has a few homegirls who skate and I don't think all of them have Lizzy decks but definitely some of them do. I don't know about contest or Woodward fans but young girls are all about Birdhouse.

Virtually every thread about this dude and his video parts has one or two replies about him being racist. He’s also used some controversial music and worn racist black metal band shirts in his parts. That can’t all be just coincidence…

A lot of kids first boards are tony hawk birdhouse completes right
Also Jaws is one of the most known skaters currently I'm sure he sells boards lol
Also I just got back into skating but as far as like old school decks I see people skating at the parks here in AZ it's a fuck ton of Powell followed by Santa Cruz but Birdhouse I would say is like a distant 3rd

I wouldn't doubt it. I doubt it's much of a money maker for him and he definitely has the money to keep it going for as long as he wants. But I do still see birdhouse out in the wild here and there I don't think their like bleeding money or anything.

Christian and 1010 were running pals and were definitely on the same WP wavelength in the 90s. Now the sins of the father and all that but I would say wearing coded NSBM gear and being heard hitting the hard R sorta puts the responsibility on the individual to clarify what they're up to. Meanwhile this dude is hitting himself in the face and ollieing off the vert wall.

Doesn’t it though? I think the most commonly known fact about the band is the dude’s not-so-secret nazi stuff. I’ve seen dudes get physically removed from shows for wearing Burzum shit. So Fletcher is either ok with that, or he’s repping the shirt of a band he knows nothing about, which is just idiotic

I think it might be the latter. He doesn’t seem like the brightest person, judging from his last interview. And it seems whenever a skater wants to look transgressive they either buy a Burzum or Dystopia shirt with no concept of what the music is.
In his last interview he goes on about how he spends 90% of his non-skating time playing weird, addictive video games and chugging hard alcohol until recently. His tone throughout the whole thing is slightly concerning and it seems he has severe depression that he has trouble dealing with. Highly doubt he has some crazy nefarious agenda and if he said shitty things as a kid at the park I’m sure it’s a product of being raised by shitty surf fucks.

They still do budget completes, and budget boards overseas as well.
I think they really started to reinvest in the brand a year or two ago. They stop doing team boards. Shawn is art director. The team size started to expand.

Speaking of birdhouse whatever happened to that Ben Raybourn kid? He used to rip but I stopped skating for like 10 years and when I started up again I haven't really kept up with the industry stuff
Ben Raybourn seems to be doing really well. He’s riding for Metal and IPath and living in Texas.
Check out his Chromeball interview:
https://chromeballincident.blogspot.com/2023/10/chrome-ball-interview-168-ben-raybourn.html?m=1
great interview. ironic how the pressure of trying to skate to the same level as the people around him put him into such a bad place when id rather watch him skate than easily 95% of pros anyway

Hang on, Greyson Fletcher is a nazi? Anyone like to put some proof on this claim? That's a wild accusation
I didn’t say he is a nazi. I said he very casually calls/called a certain ethnicity the hard n word. His dad is a well documented dickhead too
The only way I can prove my story is if you hung out at the skateparks in Hawaii…so I guess I have no proof for you
Yet noone has actually given an example of it...wearing a burzum shirt doesn't mean anything
Doesn’t it though? I think the most commonly known fact about the band is the dude’s not-so-secret nazi stuff. I’ve seen dudes get physically removed from shows for wearing Burzum shit. So Fletcher is either ok with that, or he’s repping the shirt of a band he knows nothing about, which is just idiotic
He probably just likes the band? It's not that deep. Normal people don't obsess over this shit they just live their lives
But like everyone else is saying- he seems very fried and I feel bad that his father is an asshole so I want to give him the benefit of the doubt. But who knows.
I wouldn't wear it personally but only because I don't like their music. If I did then I would

I love these separate the art from the artist guys who can’t imagine a world in which they’re unable to listen to Ignition (Remix)

To answer OP, for obvious reasons.
-
fuck that guy
-
He lacks theology and geometry
-
Would you though? I tend to remember them as that really evil band but forget that one guy is a nazi.
If you have no interest in metal or metal adjacent bands, I'll give you the benefit of the doubt on this one, but if you do, then I call shenanigans on your claim.

I have very limited interest so yeah that’s probably why

Didn’t dude end up shaving his silly homeless “dreads” and beard because it was infested with bugs? Or was that someone else? Either way that recent fs flip vert clip was fucked. Don’t think I’ve ever even seen an interview with the dude but his dad and uncle are/were notoriously edgelord surfers in the 90s.
Honestly not sure if greyson was ever on some edgelord shit or just caught that stray by affiliation. A tragic.

No, OC is not the center of surfing culture. Their behavior comes from the north shore localism, cali surfers kinda made it worst tho.
My theory is that good waves are scarse.
Imagine a bunch os skaters trying to skate a spot thats only there for a few seconds.

I read his Thrasher interview and it sounds like he’s had a volatile upbringing with his dad and substance abuse…..

Ive seen his dad in person amd can verify that hes a nutjob. Honestly the way greyson acts is very true to their whole familys "go big or go home" attitude .

Yo he pulled some more “everybody look at me” shit at another event hahahhaha

if all of skateboarding was like this i would have never taken any part in it.

If anyone should get CTE its this dude.

He doesn’t get CTE. Cte gets the Fletchers. Atleast Greyson has the excuse of being born addicted to meth/Doritos and surge.
That “yo everybody stop everything and look at me!” At comment couldnt be more on point haha that shit is so cooked. The only time that was cool was Hellride 2010 at Autumn bowl when Muska used a rando board and did a frontside flip like 5 feet above the coping first and only try. had on a stone cold type knee brace on and said he had a torn ACL.
But that was Muska. He could have played air guitar and it would have been just as cool.

I disagree. North shore may be the beginnings of localism but SoCal is the home of being jock nazi dickheads and also home to a lot of the industry. Miki Dora is the original and straight out of SoCal.
But you’re right it is about scarcity. Probably about being a bully too because that makes some dudes proud of themselves.

Miki Dora was a straight up racist who cursed our culture forever with some half assed association with recycled fascist imagery. Wow how clever thanks for surf nazis

There’s a great long-form article from a surf mag covering the Fletchers. It’s about five or six years old; I’ll try n find it. Every time I’ve looked before I frustratingly came up empty. It had great insight into the immediate family. There’s definitely a chip on certain shoulders. They’re all pretty fried.. whether by sun or drugs or lack of education or holding on to what they feel they’re owed - I remember the article saying Astrodeck doesn’t turn much of a profit but they hold onto it for legacy. Or maybe spite because they jaw on and on about how “it’s the best” but anybody that quit did so for a fat paycheck and not for better quality gear.
