Is @Sk.A.T.A.N the Euro TM?

I'll freely admit I was dead wrong even if I might have had reasons for my position. But that mass walkout on isle isn't looking too great now. Let's hope everybody finds a good home and thrives, not just the hot Supreme dudes.

why not? because a theoretical board company didn't materialize? there aren't many guys that were on vase that are going to struggle to get on a new company

GOD DAMN CANCEL CULTURE

Casper Brooker on Baker confirmed!!!1!!1!

The brand is called Isle, and they have a video called Vase. You love being wrong all the time I guess?
-
probably for the best this didn’t happen, i don’t think their bland bracketed text and photos of jellyfish run through wacky curves filter settings are visually interesting enough to sustain a board brand

Y’all really upset there isn’t another board brand for you to look at in the shop before buying an antihero?
AD is dope as shit but there are enough board brands. Really weird sentiment on here that if you aren’t on the same team you can’t be friends. Even in the age of all these “HeLLrIDe” trips that be mashups of crews ranging from Grant to Tiago traveling the world drinking at skatespots.
All these dudes that deserve to be on other brands are going to be fine. Shouts out to the Casper thread

Just posted this on his story attributing it to long covid, sounds pretty savage hope he's all good, fingers crossed AD still carries on in some form in the future

Admitting he might get some sort of dementia is terrifying, i hope he gets thru this thing fine.
-
Long Covid is actually terrifying and damn near ripped one of the most important people from me. That’s all I’ll really say about it.
He also changed the caption.
-
So, the guy was really Ill with a somewhat “invisible disability” and was taking too long to get the brand going so the would-be team bounced? What, did they not believe him or something?

Maybe they already quit Isle and Jacob's unfortunate illness delayed things to a point where it wasn't sustainable for some of them to keep waiting? Then when one or two drop out, others follow.

Guess this settles it for everyone saying Casper was stupid for not sticking with the homies
-
Did the board brand rape someone or what??
On the real, this sucks and hopefully Jacob fully recovers! Dude is a skateboarding saint.

Sad that his health issues killed this company. As much as everyone said we didn’t need a new board company it was basically just replacing isle anyway.
Super sick Casper’s on baker. Has any company made such a good turn around as baker has in the last decade. They went from essentially a caricature of them selves with Dee and Cyril and stuff to having a diverse interesting team again and staying extremely relevant.
If only crailtap could’ve done this. Reynolds might be the best company owner in all of skating history at this point. Couple missteps but damn he’s always had amazing judgement.

I said this in the previous thread but there is 100% a hole in the uk scene for a board brand with established pros, Tom Knox, Chris Jones, Kyron etc.
Anyway sucks to hear about the health problems, I hope this doesn't end Atlantic Drift as a whole.

We were wondering what Chris Jones will do for a sponsor now, surely if Isle is still going peeps might go back over to that?
Hopefully Jacob can recover and get back on trips at some point soon, long COVID is gash.
-
Hoping Jacob makes a full recovery, seems to say he's okay now. Still bummed that it didn't work out either way. Yeah, those guys are all good enough to find other board sponsors but still would've liked to see them all stick together.

Bring back Death Box!

Yeah this is sad to hear. I can't help but think if Isle would have made Jake a part owner from the get-go the team may have not broken up. And there would be no desire for another brand. You watch Vase and it's clear that so much of the identity of the brand was due to Mr Harris. It's just a shame. A big loss for the UK/Europe.
-
Jacob Harris is the best filmer of the last decade and I hope he gets better.
The silver lining I'm going to go with is that if he had a brand he would get caught up in the day to day/headache of running it/see less of him and this means he will have more time to put out amazing videos (if and when he gets better).

Gotta love the British understatement saying he got off lightly when this shit cost him the next big Euro skate brand together with his best friends. I'd say sometimes it's OK to acknowledge you got dealt a shit hand and feel a bit sorry for yourself. No AD boards is surely a loss for the Euro skate scene but main thing is obviously he's fine and showing the kind of self care and openness we should foster in our community. Ben forever.

This just bums me out, I would definitely buy these boards. Although it’s a good thing in the end that this happened, obviously jacobs health takes priority

Damn... these boards are so sick
