Grant is riding an anti-hero board in this video. Him leaving alien workshop wouldn't be too far of a stretch after Dill and Ave left. What do you guys think?

I've heard this before and I hope it's true, but how can you even tell it's an Antihero deck? I remember a video of him being posted where he's riding a krooked board while still on AWS... so maybe it's just a similar case?
-
you have some quick eyes. i can't see his board at all except a part of his nose at the beginning when he snaps an ollie. looked like it could be an Anti Hero. Imma go jack off now.

that is the place, it is an anti-hero. you can care enough to do that. actually i thought you would be the kind of person to self pleasure over a trivial team change. this was all for you pal.

I really wish people would exercise a little more restraint on these boards and not make a thread for every little bong-rattled impulse that their brain regurgitated.

You should make think more about the situation that warrants people to think about a "board," Jason Dill and AVE have left Alien Workshop, and I bet the other "players" aren't dying to stay.
Some other people should exercise some control and not say thing for every regular "opinion" that their brain happened to form in a barrage of judgement.
From what I can see, as Thrasher and Anti-Hero are one in the same, and with Grant Taylor being a SOTY, it would make perfect sense for him to go to Anti-Hero.
Maybe you need to think more before you assume someone doesn't use logic.
I guess skateboarders don't use logic.

Or perhaps armed with the knowledge that skateboards do in fact break break and since "Thrasher and Antihero are one in the same", and considering it was a thrasher trip; maybe he just borrowed a board to keep skating after one broke.
This just in JT to DGK:

Anti-hero is marketed such a genius way that you can essentially ride for any company and get away with repping some of their product occasionally. Granted the Beauty and the Beast tour(s) provide a g-pass for the whole crailtap squad, I still doubt "the Workshop" would care if Grant broke a board and got a clip on a borrowed anti-hero deck. That is the most likely scenario, and I doubt he'd move when Dill and AVE leaving will just increase board sales for himself, this "gossip" we discuss is all business at the end of the day.
-
Jake Phelps slam at the end was something.
Something awesome.
I re-watched that probably ten times. I'm assuming he had a beer or two prior..
-
I highly doubt GT will stay after Dyrdek made that Metal Mullisha whatever it is hes doing thing. Grant on anti hero is just perfect.

Grant is entering Jason Jessee/Steve Claar territory with frontside ollies like that
-
I was at Thrasher's Skate Rock today hanging out with the Antihero dudes and everyone else that was there and asked Andy Roy and Tony Miorana about Grant getting on the team and they both told me that they're stealing him from Alien as soon as Skate Rock is over.
I don't know about you, but Grant on Anti Hero sounds like a perfect match.
-
Can definitely see him on there. Don't really see him as being a lifer though, which all those dudes are. I don't know. Just kinda weird to me.
Not doubting shit though when it comes to people jumping ship over at Alien. I could see everyone leaving except for Mikey Taylor. Haha
-
gonna have to cut that Alien tattoo off his finger now
Rob buys Alien and everyone leaves......
-
If this is true thatd be cool.
-
Damn AWS must be hurting. thats 3 of their bigger name riders gone in a very short period of time. Possibly even more if Dill & AVE are starting a company and take a couple guys with them. Grant would definitely be HUGE for anti-hero tho.
-
that's tight, its a perfect fit
-
wow RIP Alien Workshop... :-[

Hes a "lifer" for sure. Some dude tried to sue him and his dad for like a million dollars cause they were doing some gnarly graffiti on some shit hahaha
-
yeah i bet they would like to steal him but they most likely arent. why is it dill and ave leaving = everyone else leaving
-
been said, but a board with grantihero script would sell like crazy.
-
yeah i bet they would like to steal him but they most likely arent. why is it dill and ave leaving = everyone else leaving
They would have had to leave for a reason which I'm sure is at least somewhat legitimate and if it has to do with no longer liking Alien then they probably arent the only ones. And also just for fear of being the last dude on a dead team. I bet Dylan goes with Dill and Ave on their new thing too.

God I hope Alien Workshop doesn't wind up being the American version of Blueprint.
-
If it does happen, he'll fit in perfectly with the team.
Rob buys Alien and everyone leaves......
It seemed like people were pretty hyped on Rob buying the company when it happened. But still, if a bunch of riders do end up leaving, I don't think that Alien will fully go under for a long, long time.
God I hope Alien Workshop doesn't wind up being the American version of Blueprint.

Actually, it still sounds like you are. Also, you should have but a question mark at the end of your second sentence.
-

The instant I closed that other thread, here you are covering this one too. Hissy fit confirmed.
-
I TOLD YOU FUCKERS. Who's throwing hissy fits now. Not me or you.
You are. This is a hissy fit when you make it a point to go on multiple threads to insist you aren't having one.
-
ill believe it when i see it.
-
Well, on the upside...if you are having a hissy fit, you've got some big shoes to fill (see embed). Meaning, the hissy fit level you've reached here is probably sub 1 on the 1-10 hissy fit scale (1 being the least severe hissy fit, and 10 being fullblown uncotrolled hissy fit). Now, this is probably around a solid 8.8 or 9 on the hissy fit scale.

T-mo and Andy Roy having some drinks in their system and saying that is one thing but when Julien Stranger says that I will be stoked
-
Grant got the alien tattoo covered with the black flag logo.
True story.
-
Phelps should probably stop skating. That was bad. He should atleast stop ollieing
-
Grant is tight with Thrasher which is tight with Anti Hero...it just makes sense.
with all these people "fleeing" workshop - I hope the eagle picks up Fitzgerald too...doubt it though. Getting on Anti Hero is like getting recruited by the FBI.
Either way - Raney and now the rumor of Grant coming along...the 1-8 is doing big things.
-
At this point, it's going to be more shocking to see who actually stays on Workshop than who quits.
-
Maybe this will be like Toy Machine and they lose everyone except a rider or two and have to rebuild from there. Then maybe the pretentiousness of the brand will be less so
-
T-mo and Andy Roy having some drinks in their system and saying that is one thing but when Julien Stranger says that I will be stoked
Julien was there and I asked him about it. He said they've been talking about it and that Grant seems like he's really into the idea of being on. So, who knows. Within the next few weeks we could see a Granti-Hero deck.
Also, Andy Roy and Phelps were some of the nicest people ever. So was T-Mo. Had about a 30 minute conversation with him about skating, life, and him waking up drunk every morning.

I TOLD YOU FUCKERS. Who's throwing hissy fits now. Not me or you.
hahahahahaha, I am having a hissy fit right this second. I went to multiple stupid threads to have a few stupid hissy fits and I could not give less of a fuck. did you like that hissy fit?
Please expand on the amount of fucks you have to give.
And doomguy, you make the Antihero team sound so approachable. Remember in bonus footage when that european kid walks up and asks if they're the Antihero team?
"Anti what? Never heard of it."
That is a great request, and I would be happy to expound. Well I give so little fucks that I am willing to make myself look like an absolute person. I am giving you time right, that alone makes it look like I give some fucks. Though, even though I keep entertaining the pals whiny insults, I care so little that it looks like I care.
Here's a little poem:
Hello you guys
please give me more
negative reputation
honestly
I think you guys should show me some more hate
So please consider saying more mean things

this is a great movie. if I had to tell you my true feelings, it would be in a poem
Just like this:
I got called out for having a hissy fit
How can you tell my tone through the intronet
I keep instigating more responses
would should if anything show I am trying to get reactions
I am not trying to get reactions
I am just trying to get interactions

Grant isn't going anywhere. He just got offers. Alien pays well.
-
Can definitely see him on there. Don't really see him as being a lifer though, which all those dudes are. I don't know. Just kinda weird to me.
Not doubting shit though when it comes to people jumping ship over at Alien. I could see everyone leaving except for Mikey Taylor. Haha
heck yea, its very fitting for him. and Mikey would be the only one to stay ha

I was watching the newest Atlanta Hates Us edit on youtube and noticed that his board looked spray painted black. Don't care really, either way...just kind of suspect with the rumblings in this thread.

that's tight, its a perfect fit
That sounds like something Andy Roy would know about.

Grant has been offered to ride for Anti Hero numerous times, he knows those dudes pretty well and the offer has been on the table. Not that I couldn't see it happening but I've heard he's staying on Workshop. Of course Anti Hero would wanna 'steal' him from Alien...who wouldn't? The fact is if Grant left Workshop to ride for Anti Hero, that wouldn't be 'stealing' and that simple comment is not any kind of confirmation of anything except that they want Grant on their team. Again who wouldn't? Grants even been known to skate other boards for the shapes so that could be why the one in the video grab is spray painted, because it might not be a workshop. He's been on Alien forever, and he didn't seem to be super tight with Ave & Dill, so them leaving is of no consequence. Plus he stands out on more so on Workshop. Again I'm not saying it couldn't happen, I'm just pointing out this isn't confirmed and he's been made the offer plenty has hasn't jumped on it. Why would he now? This comment could've simply been a joke.....

A lot of what you said seems pretty accurate except for one thing: Others aren't leaving the workshop because Dill and AVE left. Dill and AVE left a company they held dear because SOMETHING IS WRONG AT DNA. Just because he isn't tight with those two doesn't mean he isn't getting fucked over in the same way they were.

This made my day. Awesome skateboarding by little Grant.
As far as the Anti Hero ramblings go. I don't think there's any chance Grant will leave Alien for Anti Hero.
It's a great company but there's a gew factors to keep in mind.
- First of I don't think Grant would shine as much on Anti Hero as he does on Alien. There's a lot gnarly dudes on Anti Hero that skate very similar to him. Nothing wrong with that, but you get the point.
- Second I think that Alien pays well and they turned him pro. I think Grant IS pretty loyal so he won't leave any time soon. I can't really see Dill and AVE kicking it with Grant either...
- Third, Anti Hero is a company that seems they always get a "pass". I've seens tons of other pro's ride their boards without being a team member. And it always seems to be tolerated. I think they get a lot of love from everyone...
Grant leaving Alien? I don't really think so...

Lol, grant sucks? Bitch please. Dude skated the first drop kink 3 years ago and people are only catching up to him now.

Ok, and you're basing this assumption off Ave & Dill leaving obviously, that's what it goes back to. I can tell you right now that being tight with Ave & Dill and them leaving would cause someone else to leave because it already has and will be announced soon. No one was getting fucking over, nothing at DNA has 'changed' as far as team is concerned. There did seem to be some distribution changes and some new weird affiliations but the companies are being run the same. Even when Burton owned them, nothing really changed except for the owner. Dyrdek's ownership is similar, except the changes we all know, which some are weird, I agree. Ave & Dill just want to do their own thing while they are still relevant and have the chance, they are probably banking off the hype of the Vans video and their parts to boost their brand. I wish them the best, I've looked up to them for almost 20 years and still enjoy watching them skate no matter what tricks they're doing.
It's the same with the guys leaving Habitat, they got an opportunity they're more psyched on and are taking it. I think some of it also has to do with Habitat shoes being over with so they don't feel they have as stuck to the brand. I think this is true in Austyn's case for sure, which is the only person who I've actually confirmed actually left Habitat....everything else is rumors at the moment.
DNA is doing very well, it's certainly not a sinking ship. All of this talk started getting hyped because Ave & Dill leaving, then others copy their move and follow suit or vice versa, because I don't know for sure what order things took place in but it really doesn't matter.
Workshop is rad, and it will always be rad as long as Chris Carter and Mike Hill are still involved.

Your post seems pretty reasonable for the most part and I couldn't agree more that Workshop and Habitat are both rad and DNA isn't going anyway. That said, I don't follow your part about Habitat. It's completely contradictory. You say the dudes were offered a great deal and took it, but then say Austyn is really the only one leaving and the rest is rumor. Which is it? Then your last sentence is a complete doozie. I don't even know where to begin with that.
If the Janoski/Garcia/Angel thing is indeed true I wish them the best. Habitat will be just fine if/when those guys leave because it helps them tighten up a little bit. Habitat still has Castrucci at the helm and a pro team that features Silas and Suciu with Guru and Dela. I fully back that. Getz and Gall will always sell boards.

Yeah...I don't know I just make up shit. It's already been speculated in another thread and is true, however I'm not gonna get into it because I was told in confidence and I don't feel right putting other people shit out there, especially if I don't know them.
Also I don't know if any if the other habitat shit is true or not, I haven't had confirmation and I personally doubt it's true. I was just saying that if it were true it's probably do to an opportunity rather than something wrong with DNA.

Spoke with Thomas, Grant is not leaving anytime soon. Offers have come from a lot more companies than just Anti Hero, which isn't really that surprising. Whatever is going on with Dill and Ave has nothing to do with Grant, doesn't care.

I wonder if Thomas is in on it. He might be just feeding you misinformation to maintain confidentiality. I remember when I met him and Adam Luxford at his original shop location and talking with him over the years until I left Georgia. It wouldn't be too far fetched for him to do that.

Wouldn't be surprised if Alien became history thanks to Dyrdek
-
Heard from a rep today that Dyrdek already sold DNA and that's the cause of all this. And apparently the new Dill Ave thing is a reboot of an old brand with 'soul' in the name but neither of us could remember which one.
-
I think DNA disbanding sounds great oddly enough. New faces on new teams or new companies, and allow both companies to go out with a good legacy. They lost their soul on the original Burton Deal, they havent been the same since. Just been Slowly getting worse and worse although maintaining rad teams. Id rather see the younger top tier guys define a new company rather than trying to reinvent an already extremely successful brand.
-
Hahahaha I can't believe people actually think Alien is going under, it's one of the most successful board companies out there. Yeah ave and dill left...with absolutely no plan whatsoever and nothing in the works(off to a great start) and then the guy who never should've been on Workshop in the first place follows them and it's the end of DNA? Really? A rep told you? Fucking Awesome? Come on.....

this. i did love terpening but he wasnt on for long, so its not such a loss. dill and ave will probably have their last part in the vans video anyways so they'd just be selling boards.
i think alien will survive with Dylan,Gilbert, Jake, Omar, Bledsoe, Fitzgerald, Donovon, and Mikey. (who are all on the updated team page)

Never said that Alien was going under. Just that Dyrdek sold it already. Fool loves making money.

It only makes sense that people are fleeing a brand that recently collaborated with the website of a nut-job who thinks the government staged the Newtown school shootings, was responsible for the Boston bombings and created this week's tornado in Oklahoma. Any company irresponsible enough to endorse such an ignorant, crazy fool like Alex Jones deserves to die slowly while others watch.

Sounds like someone's been watching a little too much Rachel Maddow. The clips she used were taken out of context. I don't see how you're surprised with that collaboration unless you can't read into Mike Hill's art.....

These graphics arent new either they are mid 90s originals still used today. At its core workshop has a conspiracy based "question everything" message within their graphics. So Alien hasnt changed as much as people would like to think. Just because they did a collaboration doesn't mean they endorse everything Alex Jones says and albeit a loudmouth sensationalist, he's not crazy and certainly not a republican(as Maddow would have you believe) he bashes them too. However now the media see some crazy guy yelling who criticizes Obama and peg him a right winger in an attempt to discredit their political enemies...don't you see how you too fell into this trap? You'd probably fit into that "sheeple" category.
You should probably look into Gulf of Tonkin, operation northwoods, gladio & Ajax, and recently the underwear bomber and fast and furious....those are admitted government conspiracies. Then you'll see why people like Alex Jones question everything and don't just take the government & mainstream corporate medias word for it. Weather modification has existed since at least the 1960s, look it up, just because you didnt know that doesn't make it a conspiracy theory. You should listen to the entire clip of what he said instead of the snip its taken out of context on TV to demonize him. A caller suggested that weather modification by the government could've caused the tornado in Oklahoma, and he agrees that technology exists...that's as far as it went. It's not bad to think for yourself and come to your own conclusions....
Anyway I know you won't look into any of that stuff, you're perfectly content believing everything the government and their lap dogs have to say and that's fine, but if you don't care to look into anything for yourself it's not really fair to criticize people who do. The fact is noone knows for sure what happened except those involved in an incident and neither of us where so everything is a theory regardless of it's its made "official" or not.

Govt conspiracies are so 90s...

Mk ultra would be a cool name for a board company.

Im glad it's not john or gilbert... Even without ave en dill, alien has still got a solid team. Grant kills it, omar is cool, heath is still on,and dylan just murders it.
I always liked the message of the workshop. Especially at the time when brands like hook ups, acme, and that stuff were around. They were more serious, graphically they were also ahead of their time. Meaning that they took a completely different approach.
I always thought gravette would be a good fit for alien as well (or anti hero)... Looks like a fun dude, his skating is amazing and he just kills it. And i think hed fit in with everyone...
Ah well, just thinking out loud...
Peace.

I'm sure Nike pays grant VERY well.
Board sponsors are almost nothing now. He should ride for AH. Get his snuggle on.

Nike does pay very well, my old neighbour is am for them...

TMKF, you are saying all of those conspiracies, which have nothing to do with Rachel Maddow, are completely rational?
I don't think even Alex Jones believes his bullshit at this point. I think he just wants more listeners, and thinks that everytime he declares something a government conspiracy that he'll get more listeners, so he declares everything one. He's a caricature of a conspiracy theorist at this point.
My favorite Alex Jones conspiracy is this one: He's paid off and given stories to report by the government in order to be a red herring to anybody who actually wants to take a critical view of their government. Put him front and center, let him take the crazy views, then point specifically to him and say "See, they are all crazy"
Oh, and I've said it 700 times, but I'll say it again. Alien isn't falling apart because Dill left, Dill left because Alien is falling apart. Dude wouldn't just pick up and leave for the hell of it.
-
Alien hasn't been the same since they got rid of Don Pendleton. Since then they have cannibalized their old images and made not so awesome new graphics.

Summed up beautifully. That said, in a perfect world I'd like to believe the same thing but I also don't put much stock into Dill's ability to forecast or see bigger perspectives. Frankly, it reeks of a move made out of spur of the moment spite.

100% agree here.
-
My problem with alien is theyre clinging to the past too hard. Dropping pendleton in itself wasnt a big deal its the fact they never got a solid secondary art director after letting him go that really hurt them.
Also, Im not even sure how dill would know its "falling apart". Dill doesnt go to dayton enough to even say that and im not sure dyrdek screamed "total failure" over a couple of phone conversations. benny films and edits very well, its not him, the riders are killing it, its not that, dyrdeks owned workshop for about a year and company hasnt done anything different, theyre even better at slinging boards since learning from burtons system so its not sales. so whats falling apart? Hes mad at the art department? Thats reasonable but thats not "falling apart". Hopefully he unloads in an interview or something because it makes no sense to me. If it was really that bad everyone wouldve left. Kalis at least had some respect and explained himself.
Dill and ave leaving is a godsend for the other riders to get the shine and influence on the company they deserved. I can understand the obvious negative but theres a huge upside to losing large pillars like that. Also, no offense but terpening leaving is a little funny to me because hes been flow for almost a decade before even getting on as an am.
-
I'll take it from the fact that you are talking about what is going on in Dayton and saying Alien hasn't changed in the same post that you have no fucking clue what you are talking about.

ya i dont understand why kevin left, dude was on flow since early 2000's. basically got lucky

No I'm not saying either side is "rational". The reason I bring up Maddow, who I'm sure is your girl or your boy or whatever, is because it just so happens what that dude was talking about are the few items Maddow brought up on her shows the past week to attack Alex Jones. I'm simply saying he puts other questions out there on these topics and shows possible government connections as well as motives. I'm not saying he's right or that I agree with him on everything but I like to questions things too, and obviously the people over at Alien most likely Mike Hill do too.
Your second point and "favorite Alex Jones theory" is a relevant concern and question. I don't take anyone at their word unless they build up trust. Pretty much what you're saying is that Alex Jones is part of a counter intelligence program(cointelpro) which again is a relevant concern, however if this were in fact true why would the establishment media attack and demonize him so much? Even Fox does and he's supposedly "an arm of the Republican party" and "a crazy right winger" right? They did the same with Ron Paul. This is somewhat proof to me that he isn't cointelpro, as well as just building trust over the years with what he covers that ends up coming true. Back in 2007 I hated the guy but over the years he's consistently covered real issues and given many people a platform to get important news and information out. I did give him a chance at first because he's so aggressive...I can relate to his frustration though. I'm sure even you'd be down with some of the guests he has on his show.
I think Dill left because he was always "too cool" but before he was "too cool" and fucking up with his drug and alcohol abuse and never skating. I think in the past year or so since all that changed his ego went from "too cool" to "ultra cool" and at think he figured him and Ave were "too cool" for Workshop. Or maybe they just wanted to do their own thing while they are still relevant. They have new parts coming up in the Vans video and maybe they don't see themselves doing this for much longer and instead of retiring from a company they want to retire with a company. Either way I like both of those guys and enjoy their skating. If they do some hipster "fucking awesome" brand out of supreme I'm not gonna back it though. I still really back Alien and don't think anything has really changed, I just think people are still in show somewhat with the drastic team changes over there.
-

Yeah this was a really bad decision on Dyrdek's part but all it does is make them like any other company, I don't see how it will really hurt them, just doesn't make them as special. They are still going to run shit out of Dayton though, just no more distribution out of there. However it could be a slippery slope...
-

the most important part of the company is still in dayton and run by the same people that have always been running it?

You assume too much about me. I don't have cable and most of the media I get is from online sources like truthout, al jazeera, RT. The only mainstream media I listen to is NPR. I'm not the MSNBC liberal cliche, I'm the other one.
Alex Jones isn't being put out there to be mocked because of his left/right leanings, but because of his non-mainstream thing. He is the one to point to in mockery when people point out that corporate media is bullshit. People jump right to "Oh, sorry I don't listen to crazy Alex Jones and infowars...everything is a conspiracy right?" When that's not really the case.
For the record though, I do hope that everything isn't going to shit at Alien/DNA. When I was a teenager, I pretty much exclusively rode (pre sellout) Element and Alien. It would be really weird if both of them became embarassments

Dyrdek licensed AWS, Habitat & Reflex to the La Jolla Group very shortly after acquiring it from Burton. The same company that owns Metal Mulisha, Rusty, The Berrics, O?Neill, FMF & more. They aren't listed on TLG's site because they thought it would take away from their core image. I think that had something to do with it.

yeah thats some bitch shit. getting put on one of the best teams when he was practically unknown, just to split... im just glad it wasnt jake or gilbert
The dude was on flow for 8+ years before even being am, and now this shit (there has to be something internal, with this many people rumored to be splitting.) Kevin has potential, and im sure he's tired of feeling like he's on the backburner.

As awesome as Anti-Hero is, this is kind of bittersweet knowing that there will be much less footage of him now.
I don't feel like that's true anymore. They haven't put out a full length video in a while, but there's been lots of webclips on Thrasher with Antihero riders in them.
-
alien is hurtin
-
Yeah AW is as far as cool riders go. I heard Crockett tried to leave as well.
-
damn what a huge bummer. at least its anti-hero though.
-
If this is true, it will suck for AWS. Glad it's anti hero though and not plan b or something lame like that...
-
What could possibly be happening at Alien that makes all these guys wanna leave? I mean, some dudes are out there riding for companies that "forget" to pay their riders. I'm sure Alien is able to pay all the riders just fine, so who's behind the scenes fucking everything up?
Either way, everybody knew that Grant would end up on Anti-Hero sooner or later, it seems like he's done all he can do at Alien.

Everyone leaving, the exodus from the workshop that (I don't care what you say) started with Ave and Dill leaving and taking Terpening with them. Then Mikey Taylor got either kicked off or left or whatever, then Jake Johnson still seems to be a wildcard in the idea that I think he's cashing Alien checks and skating whatever he feels like or is given by others. I've heard rumors of Gilbert trying to leave, and now Grant's completely gone and on Anti Hero. I could see dylan. leaving too at some point. Or maybe he'll be alien's westgate, the only worthwhile dude on the team. Alien still lists Heath on their website as a pro too...but we all know he isn't filming, and when he's spotted skating it's usually on a Baker board.
-
Grant is a perfect addition - best team/best skater.
Somebody get AWS some tissues...

Kinda would have wanted to see him on something else. Anti-Hero just seems a bit too obvious for me. If that makes any sense. Afraid he's gonna blend in too much, while on Alien he stood out pretty well.
-
Pros dont make shit off board royalties.. Why would they care what "team" they ride for?

Well maybe to have excuses to go on trips with people they vibe with?
Alien seems to be going through the same thing that Toy did when everyone was leaving...except they didn't have an anchor like Ed at the center. It'd be very sad to see it go.

He was aliens last hope, specially with threads of dylan on fukcing awesome now and crockett wanting to leave. Grant on Anti hero is awesome though he fits in perfect.

Does this mean less street Grant? :(

I saw a pic from a couple of days ago and he was on a workshop deck.
Do you ever check your PMs? You probably should. I sent you one a week ago, just wondering if you got it.
-

it means more raw street Grant! :)

Most insider types have told me that deck companies are mainly good for coverage and establishing a marketable image to get more profitable sponsorships like shoes and clothing.
-
Dyrdek bought AWS back from Burtone snowbrds and then sold it to himself at Street Leagues to pocket some $$$ and it's going to be a mall brand soon so thats why everyones leaving for other companys.
Hes a business man just like Jaime "Chief" Thomas who was southern californas business man of the year and then laid all his skaters/employees of for the better bottom line.
If you love something, make $1million dollars off of it and get out. Then you can say you still do it for the love. Or something. Fuck it

When did Crockett say he wanted out?

As much as I love AWS, Grant leaving was a HUUUUUUGE blow for them.
They should get Westgate on there...

Gilbert FA hopeful...

I hope this means we get some GT/Tershy doubles in the next Beauty and the Beast.

You didnt think a person who won skater of the year had a following? he came out of nowhere when he won it but he's been gettin coverage since.
-
He didn't even come from nowhere when he won that. He's had big name sponsors since he was like 13 and I think his dad was an old pro.

not to mention his debacle part was fucking sick
-
he was the prototype ATV kid and then literally a year or so later everybody was trying to get an ATV dude on their team. there were obviously guys who were doing it before him but grant really went all out and got a whole new generation of people into it. theres no question why he got that SOTY. dude was innovating on rails and on tranny. hes a true ATV.
i always looked at this current generation of alien as a band apart. not really a team just a bunch of dudes doing their own shit, they dont do demos theyre just in the streets somewhere doing tricks. its almost weird to even see them do a demo in the first place. case & point: those mind field demos. its crazy that those guys were even on the same team together. maybe grant just wanted to kick it with a crew instead of constantly doing shit solo. i guess thats fair. still sucks tho.
-

Not really. We just like people who skate transition AND street. Curren is probably technically better (I've never met either). Grant is still so fun to watch and Anti Hero is a great fit.

Gilbert FA hopeful...
Image-wise, Crockett on FA would be odd and I think it would suck. I know he's friends with Dill/AVE personally, but FA (as a company) has now established themselves as a cool guy, boutique brand selling $60 decks, $80 hoodies, and $40 tees. Crockett on the other hand is a raw cat, white tees and jeans destroying some of the crustiest spots and skateboarding in the street being an 'everyman'. There's no high fashion, no pretentious bullshit, just raw skateboarding.
I hope Crockett sticks it out on Workshop. They could build everything around him and he could potentially do something really special with it.

Funny, I didn't see it that way at all. I never felt the love between Gilbert and Dyrdek, Mikey and Jake, Heath and anyone...

at least alien still has gilbert, JJ, and dylan. dylan leaving for FA is already ruled out and i read hes happy where hes at

seeing grant taylor skating for approximately 10 minutes when pretty much everything he did was nbd and first try on the spot, doing shit most vet locals thought wouldn't even be possible and at the same time shitting on every other pro at that demo big time made him an instant legend for me. 10 minutes that made every other pro skater at that demo looking like they just started tic tacking.
-
any chance he is just homies with them and is part of the crew? you dont necessarily have to ride for them to skate with them. I think he would have been formally announced already if were true. plus he still has new alien boards that havent hit shops yet
-
This hole fuckin GT on AH thing got me more stoked to skate than any videopart or clip in years! I feel like he`s gonna be on antihero for a long time and fuckin make skateboarding way more interesting than its been lately because of all bullshit. This is the best possible skater/sponsorshipdeal ever. And i kinda feel sorry for AWS because i just started to get into them after the transworld part and all of those life splicing clips.. but it was somebody else who fucked up things than the ridrs sooo....fuck
-
It makes me think the rumor about the bastardization and selling out the brand to wal-mart or wherever must have some merit. There is no mass exodus from Habitat and they've gone through the same DNA ownership shifts as Workshop.

well when he was on AWS all of his footage was via thrasher so it doesn`t really change anything, does it?

Actually i think grant?s goin to make antihero even bigger thing in skateboarding world... hopefully

Anti Hero will definitely get a boost for sure. I feel like the company really needed this. They have a lot of OG riders but they need a new blood to really show the company what's up. Too bad Pfanner just isn't doing it.
I hope they make a good graphic for his new pro deck. That shit is going to be a classic for sure.
-
^raney is that dude. grants great too obviously tho
-
^raney is that dude. grants great too obviously tho
Raney is sick. Raney is not Grant though. See Grant in person, you'll see what I mean, just like a previous poster said-I too saw him just absolutely take over a demo, every pro there sat down and watched him. He doesn't bail. Also, street Grant is way underrated-I think people have forgotten about his destruction of weird, terrifying rails others aren't stepping to.

when they film for videos they all go on trips together as a team and when not on trips they all mostly skate together. alien just went on a trip through the midwest not long ago actually.

I love skating transition and watching people skate transition and street. But he just doesn't do it for me at all. I'm just a typical asshole, I don't care too much for anti-hero either. Grant Taylor is a great skateboarder don't get me wrong. Him changing board sponsors just doesn't seem like that big of a deal other than so many people leaving alien. Alien is a thousand times better than anti-hero in my opinion.
-
I've been a supporter of the Alien Workshop since I first saw Photosynthesis--back when it was on an orange VHS. But lets face it, fellas, Alien isn't what it used to be. I still think the years from Memory Screen to Photosynthesis and a few beyond that were really their best. There was such a good mix of styles and personalities. When I look at Alien now, I kind of just see a bunch of dudes that all look the same--minus Tyler (who doesn't seem to put much out anymore) and Grant. That nice combo of fresh and hesh dudes on the same team is gone. I'd like to see Grant go to Anti-Hero. It's a perfect fit.

I hope Alien puts out a longer video project while that Benny dude's still at the helm. Those life splicing edits and the Cinematographer Project section were all top notch. Even with the exodus of riders a promo with the current team would be insane.

He didn't even come from nowhere when he won that. He's had big name sponsors since he was like 13 and I think his dad was an old pro.
He's been hooked up for a while no? his dad owns a shop in ATL and still skates, I remember seeing old volcom ads when he was like 14 or something. He definitely fits on anti-hero for sure.
side note: why does Volcom suck? they arguably have the best team in skateboarding, put out quality edits, make decent shit yet I still feel like they suck...

i didnt even mean that negatively, i thought that actually made alien kinda sick. its a different way of having a team. everybody is just off being epic at whatever it is they like doing. grant embodied that as much as kalis or dill did so thats why its such a bummer hes leaving (if its true). kalis did his own shit, that guy wasnt sitting around waiting for bo turner or neil blender to tell him how to live, he just did his thing, same goes for heath and danny way and anybody else that was on. you cant have your entire younger team sitting around hoping dill is there to hold your hand. if grant needs a crew then by all means, anti hero is one of the best, theres nothing to be mad about, but overall i think the team is in a better place by not having any older riders on right now. its time for the newer pros to step up and spread their wings. you cant perpetually live in the 90s and the early 00s. sometimes you just have to move on and do new shit.

You are expecting a official press release from Anti Hero? That might not happen buddy... But hey I'd never thought Julien Stranger would dress up as Andy Roy for Halloween as corny as that is but that went down. Raney didn't have a intro ad or whatever the fuck they just gave him a ad doing a backside air in a pool. But this is GT and it's got a few people talking who knows... who cares be cool or don't.

I love Raney Beres. He's probably my favorite transition skater. All of the footage he produces is pure gold. Everything he does looks awesome, and he fucking charges. With that said, Raney going from being flow to am is not even in the same league as Grant Taylor getting on the 18.

I wouldn't say that. He's the one in this video, they introduce him in the beginning, and he shows up again at 5:20 for a super gnarly frontside grind and some other gnarly shit. His style is amazing. Its perfect for the type of skating he does.

I don't have a preference, but if you think Vans/VFcorp is better than Nike, you need a reality check.
Julien wants his friends to make a living from skating.

Nike had a similar design called Los Agulia?

Chris Nieratko said in his Vice post about Hewitt being kicked off Nike
My take is that there will always be corporate involvement. Most of us get our checks from one corporation or another. It is what it is. I work for Vans. And although they?re owned by a larger, publicly traded corporation, for as long as I?ve been there the philosophy has always been "skateboarding is paramount." The culture of skateboarding is what we are about. And that culture must be preserved. So when we as a skateboarding community allow these visiting corporations to dictate our code of conduct, things have gone too far. It might be an idealist way to look at things, but I don?t think the guy with the most money should get to decide what we are and aren?t allowed to say and do.
Vans is owned by a huge corporation, but Skateboarding comes first because that is what built the brand.

anti hero is sick, they have a good thing going to make a gnarly full length video now after the vans video is done, another tent city type would be rad. workshop needs to call it quits already they had a long run but mindfield was in 2009, seen rob dyrdek alien boards at a gas station one time now thats blowing it, element wouldn't even go that far

well think about the new bloods versus old dude ratio on the team, now they have raney, pfanner, grant, pat mclain? I think the beauty and the beast tours could count as anti hero videos imo. they have had good online videos plus the skate rock stuff and thrash n burn tours etc.

I thought the Dylan thing was that he went on a trial-run tour and had a serious personality clash with one of the AH guys (my gut tells me Trujillo) and everyone came to the consensus that it wasn't going to move forward. I think it was his Epicly Later'd where he said that.

Image-wise, Crockett on FA would be odd and I think it would suck. I know he's friends with Dill/AVE personally, but FA (as a company) has now established themselves as a cool guy, boutique brand selling $60 decks, $80 hoodies, and $40 tees. Crockett on the other hand is a raw cat, white tees and jeans destroying some of the crustiest spots and skateboarding in the street being an 'everyman'. There's no high fashion, no pretentious bullshit, just raw skateboarding.
I hope Crockett sticks it out on Workshop. They could build everything around him and he could potentially do something really special with it.
As far as Gilbert Crockett goes, ASIDE from his skating, your take on his vibe as a seasoned rugged man with a union job is laughable. You're buying his fantasy. The guy is the biggest cliched, classic-Americana-with-little-integrity, non-blue collar 20-something of today; chambray work shirts, fuckin' cuffed raw selvedge denim and white pocket t-shirts, all of his overnight "traditional" eagle and snake and shady lady tattoos from 1942. Gilbert Crockett puts in genuine raw work in the streets as a skateboarder, but he's some suburban kid in 2013 in a well-defined costume. And above all, fuck that jaunty little captain's hat. That Old Dominion part was the sickest skating he's ever done, but the dude is still Fallen Gilby, underneath it all.
Well put. I agree with everything you said here, Droopy.

Image-wise, Crockett on FA would be odd and I think it would suck. I know he's friends with Dill/AVE personally, but FA (as a company) has now established themselves as a cool guy, boutique brand selling $60 decks, $80 hoodies, and $40 tees. Crockett on the other hand is a raw cat, white tees and jeans destroying some of the crustiest spots and skateboarding in the street being an 'everyman'. There's no high fashion, no pretentious bullshit, just raw skateboarding.
I hope Crockett sticks it out on Workshop. They could build everything around him and he could potentially do something really special with it.
As far as Gilbert Crockett goes, ASIDE from his skating, your take on his vibe as a seasoned rugged man with a union job is laughable. You're buying his fantasy. The guy is the biggest cliched, classic-Americana-with-little-integrity, non-blue collar 20-something of today; chambray work shirts, fuckin' cuffed raw selvedge denim and white pocket t-shirts, all of his overnight "traditional" eagle and snake and shady lady tattoos from 1942. Gilbert Crockett puts in genuine raw work in the streets as a skateboarder, but he's some suburban kid in 2013 in a well-defined costume. And above all, fuck that jaunty little captain's hat. That Old Dominion part was the sickest skating he's ever done, but the dude is still Fallen Gilby, underneath it all.
Well put. I agree with everything you said here, Droopy.
Lay off Gilby fools! He's not trying to be anything by just wearing white t-shirts, people complaining about skate fashion is getting dumber and dumber.

That dylan on AH shit was like back in like 2006 or some shit, when ever rasa closed down. Before he was the "Dylan." as you know him now., team handsome poster boy or what not. So he basically would'a pulled a "berle" like you guys say donovan piscopo did to fit the AH image.....and if that would have happend the term would probly be "whoa that guy wears flannels and khakis and half cabs and shit, he pulled a "dylan"

Bullshit. By the time A time to shine came out it was very clear that Dylan. was a trend hopper, switching up his style depending on what was cool in skating at the time. Flannels and dickies or not, he was never an antihero guy. Antihero is about skating raw street and fucked up tranny, and has been even before that was cool, and will remain to be after it isn't again. That's pretty much THE thing that makes antihero so rad. They don't give a fuck about anything but getting gnarly and remaining true to their vision of skateboarding. I've had mixed experiences meeting guys from the antihero crew, but one thing I know for sure, is they don't mesh well with people who try to hard to be cool

Dude give the guy a break. When A Time to Shine came out he was still relatively young. Like a lot of young guys they are still trying to find themselves and experiment with fashion. So okay he didn't fit the Antihero mold. So what. He can still skate some raw spots and can shred a bowl. At least he skate everything. You're also making the assumption that they don't like him or have you actually seen them shit on him? I don't get the impression at all that Dylan thinks he's cool, but rather just being himself.

wow you fail. I know some dudes ? who dress/skate exactly like Dylan . You know how many fucking phases of clothing trends these types of dudes go through before they get to this stage? A lot. It's what girls like now so you're more likely to get laid if you dress like that. All of a sudden they give a shit about art and photography and exclusively upload black and white 35mm film pics to their instagrams. It'll be a rare ocassion you find them with neither a cigarette nor coffee In either hand and they're likely to be found wearing some stupid straw hat or fedora to play into their "folk" and "lo fi" image when in reality they're trust fund kids. So next time you see that local guy at the skatepark wearing a wifebeater and some pants rolled up halfway to his knee to show off how well his socks are matching with his belt, just remember: these dudes are not original.

How is that dumb? It's dead on. Are you one of them cybernet goblins?
Leet, although I've enjoyed some of your posts and you are a respected Slap Pal, I'm starting to think things are getting a little kooky with you..so here are some soft punches thrown your way myself being a goblin and all.
Right off the bat...I'm assuming you are Austin Arnold, correct?
https://www.facebook.com/austin.arnold.3139 (https://www.facebook.com/austin.arnold.3139) <--- ??? My harsh words stem from two things- one, if you are Austin, you commented on Guy Mariano's page with You're mediocre at best. ....And that to me instantly certified you into kook category #1. The highest honor of kookery.
If I'm mistaken, I'll gladly take back these sentiments, but other than shock value, calling Mariano mediocre (on his social media platform no less) is just plain stupid. It pretty much defines internet trolling. Hopefully you can add some light to this because objectively it appears you were just being obtuse. I hope I'm wrong, I want to continue liking you.
The second thing I take issue with is your agreement with "Ronald Reagan's" post where he takes Dylan. to task for what he believes to be his reasoning for not being Anti-Hero worthy. Opinions are great and I'm not saying that because I don't agree with yours that automatically makes you an idiot- it's more than that. It largely comes from drinking the Kool-Aid that Anti-Hero is something more than it is- which is a very successful selling skate brand. Today, I saw more kids in Anti-Hero uniforms (rolled up dickies/converse or vans/beanies/ and AntiHero decks) at LES in NYC than I did riding around on Plan B or other companies deemed less core. I love Anti-Hero, but their fame now is almost like seeing your favorite band blowing up and hitting the big time. It kinda makes you squirm a little bit seeing all these kids on the wagon...
Since about 99% of the Slap Community, myself included, have/has no fucking clue as to the goings on of a skate company behind the scenes, we should be the last people to define companies and their intentions- but yet, we do it and it's pretty fun to gossip and get excited in the process---- and Ronald tried to do just that- and a lot of people ate it up.
But if you take a few seconds and break things down, Ron's comment really loses it's footing-
In our adolescent days we are ALL trend hoppers because we haven't yet found our own style/personality so we adopt as to what we like.
I've already posted in more detail as to why we shouldn't hate on others' fashion choices when they are still in the midst of finding their own style in a thread about P.Rod. See below for a refresher if you like:

So what does this mean and where am I going with this?
My thought process is this- if he was being considered by the 18's notorious voting process, he was already deemed a candidate. That in itself contradicts the idea that he is not AntiHero worthy. Boom, done.
Further, Dylan. has created a new style in skateboarding. When you see someone dressed like him at your local park you instantly think he's biting Dylan's look. DYLANS LOOK. If he was a trend hopper in the past, he sure as shit is a trend starter now and that's pretty fucking punk rock and dare I say it, AntiHero worthy.
We have also spent all this time talking about Dylan's fashion but nothing really of his skating. He is fucking GNARLY. His Dylan. part was one of the heaviest parts of all time. I've seen his skating in person and he shuts shit down. Everyone pretty much stops what they are doing to watch him fucking demolish transition, gaps, and flatground. And he seems to do this while flipping off conventional means of the skate industry. That to me, at any rate, is pretty bad ass and worthy of stoke, fingernails painted or not.
and now....let's get back to GRANT!

How is that dumb? It's dead on. Are you one of them cybernet goblins?
Leet, although I've enjoyed some of your posts and you are a respected Slap Pal, I'm starting to think things are getting a little kooky with you..so here are some soft punches thrown your way myself being a goblin and all.
Right off the bat...I'm assuming you are Austin Arnold, correct?
https://www.facebook.com/austin.arnold.3139 (https://www.facebook.com/austin.arnold.3139) <--- ??? My harsh words stem from two things- one, if you are Austin, you commented on Guy Mariano's page with You're mediocre at best. ....And that to me instantly certified you into kook category #1. The highest honor of kookery.
If I'm mistaken, I'll gladly take back these sentiments, but other than shock value, calling Mariano mediocre (on his social media platform no less) is just plain stupid. It pretty much defines internet trolling. Hopefully you can add some light to this because objectively it appears you were just being obtuse. I hope I'm wrong, I want to continue liking you.
The second thing I take issue with is your agreement with "Ronald Reagan's" post where he takes Dylan. to task for what he believes to be his reasoning for not being Anti-Hero worthy. Opinions are great and I'm not saying that because I don't agree with yours that automatically makes you an idiot- it's more than that. It largely comes from drinking the Kool-Aid that Anti-Hero is something more than it is- which is a very successful selling skate brand. Today, I saw more kids in Anti-Hero uniforms (rolled up dickies/converse or vans/beanies/ and AntiHero decks) at LES in NYC than I did riding around on Plan B or other companies deemed less core. I love Anti-Hero, but their fame now is almost like seeing your favorite band blowing up and hitting the big time. It kinda makes you squirm a little bit seeing all these kids on the wagon...
Since about 99% of the Slap Community, myself included, have/has no fucking clue as to the goings on of a skate company behind the scenes, we should be the last people to define companies and their intentions- but yet, we do it and it's pretty fun to gossip and get excited in the process---- and Ronald tried to do just that- and a lot of people ate it up.
But if you take a few seconds and break things down, Ron's comment really loses it's footing-
In our adolescent days we are ALL trend hoppers because we haven't yet found our own style/personality so we adopt as to what we like.
I've already posted in more detail as to why we shouldn't hate on others' fashion choices when they are still in the midst of finding their own style in a thread about P.Rod. See below for a refresher if you like:

I can't watch Dylan skate anymore. The overly exaggerated, forced style is outrageous. The A Time to Shine part was his pinnacle--nice long, flowing lines. Since then, he's been more focused on fashion and making sure he over-emphasizes every landing with his arms and 1930's dock worker haircut. The energy his lines used to have is gone.
That being said, Grant is a skateboarders-skateborder. He rips and let's his skating do the talking. Jeans that fit, shorts, a tee shirt, whatever, he's there to shred. I look at it like this: when you see someone like Lady Gaga perform; she has all these over-the-top costumes, dancers, lights and other bullshit. It's all there because she's really not the strongest of singers or performers. She needs all the bells and whistles to distract the audience from her mediocre talent. Now take a guy like Neil Young, for the most part, just a dude on stage with a guitar; sometimes a band behind him. He's a thousand times the artist/talent that Lady Gaga could ever hope to be, but since he chose to be a singer and not a personality, the attention will always go to her and help keep her relevant. There's a reason that dudes like Neil and his songs have lasted 30-plus years and will go on to be remembered and listened to for another 30--it's legit talent, no BS.
Now, whether he ends up staying with the Workshop or going to Anti-Hero (which is a rad fit), Grant and his skating will always out last the many trends and pitfalls other dudes often get caught up in. Don't get me wrong, Dylan has tremendous talent, he just needs to get back to being a Neil Young like Grant and not a Lady Gaga...and that's the bottom line, cuz' Stone Cold said so!

Are there enough fans of skateboarding out there who don't ride skateboards to allow for a label like "skateboarder's-skateboarder" to even make sense?

Alright junior, did you get it all out? Now sit the fuck down and learn about how fucking stupid you are. First, Dylan. is openly all about "fashion," which does not simply mean dressing well, but keeping up with what is "in fashion" and what is "out of fashion." He openly goes with that approach. If he wants to, that's fine, but you are ignorant as shit if you think he just happens to change his mind about how to dress at the exact same time fashion magazines do.
Now lets talk about antihero- your entire premise there is a complete failure- how long have you been skating? How many antihero videos have you seen? If you've been skating more than 6 months you should realize that these guys have been skating and even dressing the same way for years. During some periods, it has made them cool, during some periods it has made them "out of fashion." Right now, them doing their thing happens to be cool, not because they aimed to skate and dress in some way for somebody else's approval- its who and how they have been since the 90's- but because other people happened to decide that what they did was cool. Read that sentence again and process it- just because something is popular, doesn't mean they tried to act that way to be cool, sometimes people just like what you do. If suddenly being the scumfuck dirts that they are becomes uncool, then they'll be uncool, and won't give a fuck. How do I know? Its how they have operated for their entire existence.
Now, take a step back and think about those two paragraphs. Do you see anything in common about the two entities just discussed? No? ok then, you finally get it. If you still don't, that's ok, just shut up because you are wrong.
Also, that's not l33tg33k you fucking idiot.

I can't watch Dylan skate anymore. The overly exaggerated, forced style is outrageous. The A Time to Shine part was his pinnacle--nice long, flowing lines. Since then, he's been more focused on fashion and making sure he over-emphasizes every landing with his arms and 1930's dock worker haircut. The energy his lines used to have is gone.
That being said, Grant is a skateboarders-skateborder. He rips and let's his skating do the talking. Jeans that fit, shorts, a tee shirt, whatever, he's there to shred. I look at it like this: when you see someone like Lady Gaga perform; she has all these over-the-top costumes, dancers, lights and other bullshit. It's all there because she's really not the strongest of singers or performers. She needs all the bells and whistles to distract the audience from her mediocre talent. Now take a guy like Neil Young, for the most part, just a dude on stage with a guitar; sometimes a band behind him. He's a thousand times the artist/talent that Lady Gaga could ever hope to be, but since he chose to be a singer and not a personality, the attention will always go to her and help keep her relevant. There's a reason that dudes like Neil and his songs have lasted 30-plus years and will go on to be remembered and listened to for another 30--it's legit talent, no BS.
Now, whether he ends up staying with the Workshop or going to Anti-Hero (which is a rad fit), Grant and his skating will always out last the many trends and pitfalls other dudes often get caught up in. Don't get me wrong, Dylan has tremendous talent, he just needs to get back to being a Neil Young like Grant and not a Lady Gaga...and that's the bottom line, cuz' Stone Cold said so!
dude the lights and costumes are part of the performance that help enhance it and make it a great show,and she can sing live, pick someone else to compare to neil like a rapper or something. gaga may suck but she is actually pretty damn talented. and I get where your coming from but 17 year old dylan was just that , a 17 year old , people grow up. the reason we dont judge grant is cause there were only a few major ads of his when he was a little grom and then by the first full part he was the grant taylor we know now. http://www.alienworkshop.com/renderImageThumbs.aspx?fileID=1587 (http://www.alienworkshop.com/renderImageThumbs.aspx?fileID=1587) this was the only ad I could find of young grant.

No, just no. You lost all credibility when you said lady gaga was talented. That dude was spot on and you're just missing the point. Grant doesn't give half a fuck about what is cool right now, he just does his own thing and that is what makes him cool because he is being himself. Dylan on the other hand purposely and admittedly tries to appeal to people through the way he dresses and acts, making him uncool because he is not being himself. Grant>Dylan on all sides of this issue.

WTF is going on in here? I assure you if I ever said Mariano is mediocre, I was joking. I don't remember saying that, but I certainly could have as I am into trolling on facebook. You're going to have to link me the page with the supposed post. I truly don't know where you're getting that from. His skill is and has always been undeniable. I have definitely said that I'm not into his skating though. I don't find Fully Flared and later Mariano visually appealing. Sue me. Other than that, Reagan is 100% right.

Again, Leet, I'm happy you addressed this, and as I specifically stated, I'm happy to take back those sentiments if you're saying you didn't post that comment, or, aren't the facebook profile I posted. On Mariano's facebook page, where he posted he has a new announcement, I scrolled down and found the comment with a profile having all of your pictures (or at least pictures you've posted on Slap that I may have in error attributed to you).
I'll get to Ronald in a hot second.

Oh Ronnie, thanks for the name calling, you're truly a gem.
Instead of the harsh words, let's just exchange some ideas and kick the hate which you seemingly have for me- I'm passionate about skating and I know that can come off as me just being an internet blow hard. Sorry to pop your testicles.
Firstly, since you asked-I've been skating since the mid-90's (I'm 30) and have been lucky enough to share skate sessions with some of the Anti Hero team numerous times in California (I'm a Ca transplant that now lives in NYC). Frank has liked and commented on my insta numerous times and I fucking love 18 and Deluxe for that matter. I only name drop in this instance because I feel I have a similar mindset to that older, outsider type of skateboarder that was so popular in the 90's, and I still have found appreciation for the new, bizarre trends we have seen with Dylan leading the scene.
I personally think 18's the greatest skate team. Period. If you got that twisted, I'm sorry. I never meant to give the impression that just because they are the flavor of the week, that they specifically have changed or have flip flopped style to capitalize their recent surge in popularity.
My point was- anti fashion is still a fashion, and antihero is sure enough very fashionable- so much so, it's become iconic.
And to that point, in a sea of anti-hero wannabees where literally 3 in 5 kids are dressing like their Anti-Hero Heros (how's that for irony), a guy like Dylan. really stands out. I know it may be hard to think like this, but these days guys like Alex Olson and Dylan's fashion sense are the punk rock icons of this era. I know it's hard to associate the newest GQ ads with Dylan as anything close punk rock, but it's a mentality that's going against the norm. Street League doesn't help my point either, but I guess Frank having a segment on the Berrics cancels each other out.
This new 'model/fashion/skateboarder' mindset is something as skateboarders, we are all trying to wrap our minds around, albeit most of the skate scene is uncomfortable with this or unwilling. Dylan does it regardless of the majority of skaters approving his ways- and that to me, is the same punk rock or individuality that I think Anti-Hero praises. Again, just my opinion.
I don't think this line of thinking makes me regular, or the worst poster, or someone who doesn't understand AntiHero, or needs a lesson in skate history. I just think Anti-Hero is bigger than the public's definition of their brand, and they don't share the same limited mindsets that a lot of Slap users attribute to them.
And like my last post, I'll end with the fact that Dylan rips fucking hard. His skating is unreal. He shreds. No one would give two shits about his little skinny rolled up pants if he couldn't ollie impossible over a waist high bench.
I'm sure this will just bring on more hate, but as I said, I love to skate, and love Slap, and sometimes having opinions kills vibes.

I'm not saying Dylan.'s skating isn't good. I'm just saying he wouldn't fit on Antihero the same way Tony Trujillo wouldn't fit on DGK. He's got this modern cosmpolitan metrosexual thing going on, and Antihero has a dirty, intentionally stale, fuck your trends thing going on.

What is there to disagree about here???
-
I agree that by looks alone Dylan. doesn't fit the AH squad. And I also can get behind the example of Trujillo and DGK despite the fact that I think it's a little over simplified;
For me (and apparently I'm alone here and that's OK), I feel since AH is more about a fuck you mindset than it is about what someone is wearing, then surely Dylan. could be an exception- Just a thought.

I could see Dylan spending extra time making the holes on his shirt more noticeable and trying on outfits before he goes on about his day. Where as Julien Stranger has probably skated the same pair of brown dickies his whole skate career and when it got hot he made them cut offs. I know this was a while back before Dylan became so fashion trendy so people need to look at Dylan a few years back compared to now and base their decision on the Dylan that actualy wanted to be on Anti-Hero. By now though Im sure hes not even interested in anything Anti-Hero has going on.
Anywho..... Any other new grant pics to discuss his involvement on 18 or is it too late to make this thread about Grant again?

The clothing is just the most obvious example, I think his whole personality is different. I couldn't see him putting in work at a DIY spot or drinking a wizard staff and passing out in a tent,
to bring it back to Grant, I could definitely see him doing that. Though I've been enjoying the Raney appreciation much more than the grant speculation, anybody got anything new on that front?

i seriously don't get how you think Dylan would fit on Anti Hero. he's like the polar opposite of their entire image/vibe.
a pretentious, pseudo-intellectual, trendy hipster dude just doesn't scream AH to me.

WTF is going on in here? I assure you if I ever said Mariano is mediocre, I was joking. I don't remember saying that, but I certainly could have as I am into trolling on facebook. You're going to have to link me the page with the supposed post. I truly don't know where you're getting that from. His skill is and has always been undeniable. I have definitely said that I'm not into his skating though. I don't find Fully Flared and later Mariano visually appealing. Sue me. Other than that, Reagan is 100% right.
Again, Leet, I'm happy you addressed this, and as I specifically stated, I'm happy to take back those sentiments if you're saying you didn't post that comment, or, aren't the facebook profile I posted. On Mariano's facebook page, where he posted he has a new announcement, I scrolled down and found the comment with a profile having all of your pictures (or at least pictures you've posted on Slap that I may have in error attributed to you).
I'll get to Ronald in a hot second.
No, no, no. That's definitely my account. I just don't remember typing that, although it is something I would say to laugh at the responses. I belong to a troll group on facebook that hits a lot of other pages so it's not outside my character to do so. I was pretty drunk that day. I seriously don't remember that at all, but I'm glad it's there. The responses were great. Some dude wrote a whole paragraph. Are you Chris Brannon? People get mad at the most inconsequential things. If you need to know how I really feel, refer to my first response to you.

No. We don't. You are nitpicking in hopes you have uncovered something, but you haven't.

I can't watch Dylan skate anymore. The overly exaggerated, forced style is outrageous. The A Time to Shine part was his pinnacle--nice long, flowing lines. Since then, he's been more focused on fashion and making sure he over-emphasizes every landing with his arms and 1930's dock worker haircut. The energy his lines used to have is gone.
That being said, Grant is a skateboarders-skateborder. He rips and let's his skating do the talking. Jeans that fit, shorts, a tee shirt, whatever, he's there to shred. I look at it like this: when you see someone like Lady Gaga perform; she has all these over-the-top costumes, dancers, lights and other bullshit. It's all there because she's really not the strongest of singers or performers. She needs all the bells and whistles to distract the audience from her mediocre talent. Now take a guy like Neil Young, for the most part, just a dude on stage with a guitar; sometimes a band behind him. He's a thousand times the artist/talent that Lady Gaga could ever hope to be, but since he chose to be a singer and not a personality, the attention will always go to her and help keep her relevant. There's a reason that dudes like Neil and his songs have lasted 30-plus years and will go on to be remembered and listened to for another 30--it's legit talent, no BS.
Now, whether he ends up staying with the Workshop or going to Anti-Hero (which is a rad fit), Grant and his skating will always out last the many trends and pitfalls other dudes often get caught up in. Don't get me wrong, Dylan has tremendous talent, he just needs to get back to being a Neil Young like Grant and not a Lady Gaga...and that's the bottom line, cuz' Stone Cold said so!
You reek of Dadcore.
By the way, Bowie wore ridiculous outfits too, and he's better than Neil Young.

He is riding a Krooked board in the new Thrasher Spitfire ad, Phelps and TNT said he's on, on the Thrasher radio show. It's all more than confirmed by slap pals. So end the thread or re title it would Dylan fit on Anti Hero.

You kinda nailed the fact that Bowie writes pop songs but There's nothing challenging about Bowie. If you think Berlin. Is forgettable you either have never heard it, or are not that smart. It's a record that fucks me up. Its a dark complex record about child abuse, messily ending relationships and serious heartache. But yeah whatever 'Lets Dance!' Just because it was more popular on the charts doesn't mean it's better. The fact you call 'Coney Island' adult schlock and mention songs like 'heroes' and 'last dance' without a hint of irony tells me your record collection is probably really really boring.

I think the trppy-ness of Sister Ray makes it enjoyable to me at times and White light White heat is pretty cool too. Pale Blue Eyes is my personal favorite.

Neither Bowie nor Lou Reed were the greatest ever, though they both had some amazing songs. Both of them produced a lot of garbage too, and both of them are hip names to throw out there so you can pretend like you have good taste in music. Comparing Bowie to Neil Young is a joke, and I don't even really like Neil Young, but I respect him.

The thing about Bowie records that no one ever admits is that 1. You probably only own ziggy and low or Aladdin insane. 2. You never listen to them and 3 there's only about 3 good songs on each album.
Who ever said that bullshit about Lou only having one classic album is an idiot. Berlin,new York, Sally can't dance, Coney Island Baby and even metal machine music are all classics to people who listen to Rock music in the non skate video context. People who think the Pixies are a good band love bullshit, like Bowie.� Lou Reed is more culturally relevant and interesting than Bowie could ever hope to be. The best thing Bowie ever did was that duet with Bing Crosby.
YEAH RIGHT!
Lou Reed's only classic album is Transformer, and Bowie is all over that.� �Coney Island Baby? Adult Contemporary schlock. Street Hassle, Berlin, etc.all forgettable.� Metal Machine Music is universally regarded as pseudo artistic garbage made by a man who's creative well had truly run dry. The list goes on, he never topped Transformer.� Meanwhile after Hunky Dory, Bowie made Ziggy, then Aladdin Sane, Diamond Dogs,� Low, Heroes, Station to Station, Young Americans, even Let's Dance holds up.
As for cultural relevance...Lou Reed's last work was a T'ai Chi accompaniment and Lulu.� He must have been trolling because you can't get anymore irrelevant than that.� Bowie on the other hand released a good album this year.
Lou Reed has just been a "cool" name to say since VU were overlooked in their time.
You kinda nailed the fact that Bowie writes pop songs but There's nothing challenging about Bowie. If you think Berlin. Is forgettable you either have never heard it, or are not that smart. It's a record that fucks me up. Its a dark complex record about child abuse, messily ending relationships and serious heartache. But yeah whatever 'Lets Dance!' Just because it was more popular on the charts doesn't mean it's better. The fact you call 'Coney Island' adult schlock and mention songs like 'heroes' and 'last dance' without a hint of irony tells me your record collection is probably really really boring.
You're right, Lou Reed is challenging. In the worst way possible. "Let me bore you to death, with my NY cool".
He coasted on baby boomer nostalgia, in the same way all those 60's bands did. He's the alternative Eric Clapton.
Again I repeat, T'ai Chi, and Lulu.

Neil Young, a guy in a flannel singing his "feelings". He's a good guitar player though.

Do you really want to get into insulting the clothing these guys wear?
I'll take Neil Young singing about "his feelings" and about politics and social issues over David Bowie singing about nothing any day. Please don't tell me Ziggy Stardust the rockstar fighting spiders from mars is a song about anything.

David Bowie and Neil Young are so different that I don't even know what you're arguing about.
-
so grant taylors neil young and dylan reider is bowie? whos lou reed?
-
wait no dylan is lou reed. alex olson is bowie.
-
Yeah making albums with Metallica is a little weak but how the fuck you gonna make fun of Tai chi?
Plus. You were really reaching there with the Clapton comment, that whole sentence made no sense. Making Metal Machine Music at te height of his commercial success, yeah, really going for nostalgia there.

To all you saying Dylan doesn't fit Anti-hero's image, what about Andrew Allen? He's just as "hip" and "fashion-oriented", especially these days.

Everytime I see him skating it's mostly some dickie-ish chinos and a flannel or a t shirt. Plus he's not a huge douche so there's that

he's not in the same realm as Dylan in terms of fashion, he's more in the Supreme "fashion" camp: highwater dickies, blank t's or hip buttonups, asymmetrical hip haircut. He's just as hip as all those other Supreme dudes

Yeah ok I see what you're saying. It just seems like Dylan doesn't have the AH mindset. But then again maybe that mindset is just a mirage. Idk.

Guy Kampfen used a Siouxsie song. And there ain't nothing wrong with watching a Duffel part with some Siouxsie. Duffman is gnarly.

Everything about this is so amazing. As people have said just the filmer not being able to handle what he's seeing and laughing and the way he does the frontside kickflips just 100% board control and comfort. This guy can do anything he wants on a skateboard I think he's doing what we all wish we could do.
Haven't really seen it to this level since Cardiel. It's great that he's on Antihero.
