Title: Enzo of Enjoi
Post by: TastyBurrito on March 07, 2021, 04:17:59 PM
He's off the team page.

I know it was mentioned in the "Deedz of Enjoi" thread. But I think the topic deserves its own post.

I like his skating. Aside from music choice, I enjoyed his last part as well as his pro part. Dude went hard in the paint for Enjoi. Was loyal to them for sure. Stayed flow for close to a decade – when most people would've searched elsewhere – before being put on, then off in two.

Yeah, I'm assuming he's going to a new team. No need to talk shit on Walking. He rules.

I could definitely see Deeds on Uma. However, stoked to see where he goes

Deedz is still on Enjoi. In the thread, it was assumed, via IG video, Deedz was riding a Real deck. The assumer assumed wrong. But I agree, he would fair well in Uma if he left Enjoi.

jackson, if i remember correctly, outscored the entire deathwish team. i've been waiting on him for years to put out a part where he just does everything imaginable, but i'm starting to realize KOTR was probably the only chance to see that

Jackson did outscore the team. But I'll argue if Enzo didn't get hurt early on, he would've taken on his fair share of work.

Is he though? Watched some stuff on YouTube, and 'amazing' is probably the last word I'd use to describe him. He did some nice things, but overall fairly forgettable.

His latest part he does a kickflip bs Crailslide shuv on a vert ramp , gigantic bump to bars, handrails, and super tech ledge tricks. It’s a good one if you missed it. Somebody embed that part, I’m slow.

Quiet announcement. But it looks like Enzo is on KFD boards.

Seems like it's a price point board company.

Bummed. He deserves a legit board sponsor.

But if it puts money in his pocket, it puts money in his pocket.

I'll admit I can't confirm he wasn't dropped. I'm speculating based off the sudden and silent removal from the team page as well as no "thank you and good luck" post from either party led me to believe he was dropped.

feel like he never really brought anything that interesting to the table, flip tricks down big generic socal stair sets does absolutely nothing for me. he was probably dropped because is anyone really looking to buy his board?

also, dude really tried from what i remember on kotr and i don’t think even was am or got announced as am on the show? then gets a board for like maybe a year then stripped away when jose blowjo’ had a board for like a decade for them? i dunno

But, if you will recall: before going pro, Jose Blowjo was also Am for enjoi for the previous decade.
Play the long game, or pump & dump? It’s up to each individual to decide which strategy will yield best results.

KFD is/was a South African skate company that was run under Revolution Distro. Held in high regard over here as they were very active in the scene and was basically the industry as they were Dwindle's distributor as well. The owner moved to Oz about 4yrs ago (now Podium skate distro). They've starting to add some US guys lately but I think it's through their Distro in the US.

They also do Killer and Verb and they are the OZ distro for Fallen, AFAIK. Ronny Sandoval just got on Killer.

Interestingly the Olympic skater for SA (Brandon Valjalo) was supposed to get on KFD just before the event but it never happened. They reworked his graphic as Markovich's by just changing the name.

KFD is great. Nothing ground breaking in the product department but the passion behind them is 100%.

Definitely feel like Enjoi doesn't have the singular "brand identity" of it's early MJ, Barletta, Hsu golden era but they're still sick in my book. Thaynan, Deedz, and Samarria are all sick and Caswell and Louie still rip like crazy. It's honestly kinda nice they're so ignored because the boards end up on sale all the time and they actually put out pretty nice graphics (when they're not putting pandas and dookie on them)... I got this board for $30 last week
