Has this been discussed here? I don’t really care much one way or the other who he skates for, but I read his interview in Thrasher this morning and figured some people here would be interested.

You already posted what everyone will post.

Disorder seems like a good fit. Not that cool, but very good at skateboarding.
-
Well deserved Clive is gnarly
-
Clive deserved better but I hope he’s getting a check. He deserves a check

I assumed he was done as a pro. Very happy to see Clive getting paid. Read the Thrasher interview and he seems comfortable with his lane in skateboarding and embracing the Jah. Good for him
-
so whos on birdhouse?
-
Great he didn't retire, dude's one of my favorites. Deserves better though
-
History will judge us for how we treated Clive Dixon.
The man nose blunted Staples Center.
In the early 2000s he'd be put up there with Heath and Rowley but you fucks bought F.A DECKS and now Jason Dill has his own epicly latered.
I'm going to watch that Prine part now
-
so whos on birdhouse?
I doubt Birdhouse would let Jaws and/or Lizzie go. Probably their biggest names in board sales aside from the Hawk Man.
-
so whos on birdhouse?
Hawk, Sloan, Lizzie, Jaws, Felipe, Hale, Clint, DLoy, & Reese Sulk, still a decent crew. but could use some new umph. I feel like Lizzie, felipe and Sloan are carrying the roster in terms of relevancy. Jaws has been hurt for a minute.
Despite the kookiness of the brand, disorder has a solid team with Clive, Roos, Nyjah, Alex Sorgente, and Domo. All the videos are sick. It's a good change for Clive. Birdhouse is one of my favorite brands, but he'll probably get more shine on Disorder.

crazy he was on vans flow after he did that blunt on clipper and the thrasher cover.

I agree. Clive fit Birdhouse, but he needs a place to shine. I kinda of low key hoped he was going to follow Raybourne to Metal Skateboards.
-
Retire? He put out a super gnarly part not too long ago and hasn’t been injured. Hes a work horse and deserves a paycheck.
-
Think the retirement talk stems from someone DM'ing him like a man while he was hurt and Clive responded or maybe even posted about taking it easy and having fun skating these days. Glad he's getting paid, he did get a bad rep from KOTR with Clint but god damn does he rip.

That was me, haha. It was when I was drunk on my birthday. But all and all, if he can get some money from Jah, go for it Clive. Big fan right here.

All one of their video(s)?

Agree Clive has been done dirty by the industry. Everyone knows its kinda fucked up he doesnt have a shoe by 90s standards re: spots and gnar, but game has changed and no one’s willing to put him on. He should be on Fallen at the very least! He has said no to cariuma I suppose, which is admirable. He is a full sender through and through. Nyjah’s audience will love him as a principal sender in Jah’s wily band of street pirates. Dude should be a massive star in my opinion, maybe this helps him to some of his flowers, at least on social media/$ side
-
dude huffed and puffed about having to wear a mask to come inside my local shop in late 2020.
when you wonder why no one fucks with him,
think further than his skating ability - guy’s a dumbass who no one wants sitting next to them in the van
aint nobody gonna tell me what to do 8) 8) 8) 8)
-
Glad he ended up somewhere . That mask Shit is lame but that’s just Midwest mentality . Everyone in the flyover states comes from stupidity. Real question is Blake carpenter on? Also crazy that Nyjah hasn’t put on any of his party homies yet. Where dloy, chase Webb and their mascot sinner?

Ahhh, the Jah connection starting to make more sense.
Dude is fucking gnarly, but his terrible fits that are constantly changing just don't scream marketable to me. It's hard to see a clip of him and know right away it's Clive.
Bummer though, because he really has done some amazing tricks.
-

the entire Vans team voted “no” on him
that’s not being done dirty
that’s called “no one likes you as a person”

in a recent mag it said that he quit toy to ride for disorder & then changed his mind and passed on a coveted spot. it also says “where will he ultimately end up? wonder if john marello has any ideas?” he’s the crailtap filmer so maybe girl/chocolate? he’s been skating baker boards in his recent posts though.
Retire? He put out a super gnarly part not too long ago and hasn’t been injured. Hes a work horse and deserves a paycheck.
he’s actually injured right now. he broke his foot skating this giant hubba in la and had to get surgery. apparently he has the majority of a part filmed though so that will probably come out sometime soonish as a disorder “welcome part” i assume along with his board which will obviously have a great graphic from what we’ve seen thus far… :D nah but good for him he’s getting paid again, mask thing is weak though. he’ll always have the birdhouse jock stigma behind him for how he acted in saturdays & on kotr… being on nyjah’s brand certainly won’t help with that. in the interview photos his pants seem to have loosened a bit as well which is good. those painted on pants were always one of my biggest problems with his skating.

That's Florida thinking right there. In a Thrasher section, it asked why he moved back to Florida and his answer was "Freedom...unlike under Newsom (CA Gov)."

Orange County, California (Nyjah land) is the Florida of SoCal in terms of right-wing nutjobs, so maybe an easier adjustment than one would think?

I think it’s just any red state mentality these days. But yeah I don’t blame him. If you’re getting paid enough to live in California comfortably you’d live like a king in most of Florida .

To be fair, they gave Walker his shoe as his push for his SOTY run.
Also, they pulled Berle's pro model this year as he never skated the damn things—always filmed/shot wearing authentics/eras.

Blake Carpenter moved back for that reason. Got to buy a house in his hometown. Fabiana Delfino as well.
If they can buy a house with skateboarding money, good on them.

Exactly. I cannot blame them at all, who could? Once you’re at a certain level, the opportunity costs of living in California are just nil now, with social media and killer skateparks everywhere. I bet we will see big names pick up and set up a home in Miami - that’s the case in literally every other sport.

i can see a lot of pros continuing to move to texas/austin as well. figgys in austin and neen in dfw. it makes a lot of sense for those types of older guy rail/gap skaters in the sense that everything gets blown out in socal rather quickly & the majority of pros live out there, especially younger ones. so with the younger dudes like foy & hoban out there it’s obviously got to be really tough to get an nbd or something shocking or clip/ad worthy. figgy moving to austin & having a change of scenery has made his clips a lot more refreshing while not having watered them down. i honestly hope more socal pros move around & continue to blow up scenes in different states/hook up younger guys who don’t have a california connection or a way of getting their name out.

It's funny, none of his outfits ever made me go eww. It's more the fact that he doesn't have his own style.
Some clips he looks like a Alabama hick, other times a Heath ripoff. One minute the hair is long, the next it's shaved.
I feel like the really marketable skaters have their own thing going on, such that you can always tell its them in the clip. I tend to know it's Clive because it's a crazy trick done by someone I (think I) don't know.

Because skateboarding is not the NBA and their aren't uniforms and your image is one of the only way a skater can brand or market themselves to make money. You're creating a legacy. It is visual art. Do you want to be remembered as someone like Heath or Nyjah? This shit is important.

Pretty sure they were/are all managed by Ryan over at TheBoardR (or at least got some help from him along the way).
Chris was "Cobra Cole Inc" on that payroll sheet, IIRC. we really should of saved that thread somewhere. Was eye opening .

Goodcurbs is phrasing it as strangely as usual, but he's not wrong, and Clive even says as much in Thrasher this month. People told him how he needed to market himself but he just wasn't willing to do it and his career suffered for it.

Yes! Heath always had a stylish guy vibe. From the flowy red button down on el torro to the all white retirement video. Yes his tricks were sick but he also looked really good doing them. He didn’t seem like a dirty skate rat. Like he showered before and after a session. I think that was part of his appeal.
Tom penny is just being himself. But his look is original and stands out. He’s easily identifiable and copied

Hawk, Sloan, Lizzie, Jaws, Felipe, Hale, Clint, DLoy, & Reese Sulk, still a decent crew. but could use some new umph. I feel like Lizzie, felipe and Sloan are carrying the roster in terms of relevancy. Jaws has been hurt for a minute.
Despite the kookiness of the brand, disorder has a solid team with Clive, Roos, Nyjah, Alex Sorgente, and Domo. All the videos are sick. It's a good change for Clive. Birdhouse is one of my favorite brands, but he'll probably get more shine on Disorder.

Clive is gnarly no doubt, maybe he's a kook, but lately a lot of pros are kooks... The main takeaway is that the list of skaters done dirty by "the industry" is too long.

I'm talking about Heath who said "how can I stand out with a gimmick maybe if I wear all white? No fuck that I'm leaving skateboarding"
The man literally quit skating to not have to deal with fashion or gimmicks.
He was a gnarly skater it doesn't matter what he's wearing but you like remember him because of his Collared Shirts.

Unpopular opinion,
Always been Team Clive. 100% more after reading his recent Thrasher Interview especially the part about why he quit birdhouse. We have enough fashionistas in skating refreshing to see a soul like Clive still marching on

Agreed, what else can you really ask for? The stuff people criticize him for is kind of silly.

Yes Sir. I prefer 1 Clive over 10 supreme/fa dudes. And I love Fucking Awesome by the way, Supreme not so much

Saying someone's dress/hair style is sporadic and (assuming) hard to market isn't the same as talking shit.
NahIMean?
I've had my fair share of weird hair moments too - cornrows straight into a Taxidriver mohawk.
The fashionista stick is getting old, definitely agree there.

Yup, seeing how I was in middle school at the time.
Lol at No Jive Clive, that name could help blast him into street league territory.

Makes sense, bad taste all around.
I assumed he was done as a pro. Very happy to see Clive getting paid. Read the Thrasher interview and he seems comfortable with his lane in skateboarding and embracing the Jah. Good for him
*Sizzla comes in, (translation) Did someone say Jah
Retire? He put out a super gnarly part not too long ago and hasn’t been injured. Hes a work horse and deserves a paycheck.
Maybe it has something to do with personality/attitude, that or clothing decisions.

who cares what people wear lol
Do you think people like Heath Kirchart for the way he dresses? I don't even know where to begin. That's why you kids are fucked. Tom Penny's 5 clips he just dropped was better then anything Nyjah will ever do.
Yes! Heath always had a stylish guy vibe. From the flowy red button down on el torro to the all white retirement video. Yes his tricks were sick but he also looked really good doing them. He didn’t seem like a dirty skate rat. Like he showered before and after a session. I think that was part of his appeal.
Tom penny is just being himself. But his look is original and stands out. He’s easily identifiable and copied
Heath is a particularly funny choice here, because yeah, you're talking about the skater who filmed a part in all white and who was constantly photographed skating the gnarliest shit in a collared shirt or sweater.
I'm talking about Heath who said "how can I stand out with a gimmick maybe if I wear all white? No fuck that I'm leaving skateboarding"
The man literally quit skating to not have to deal with fashion or gimmicks.
He was a gnarly skater it doesn't matter what he's wearing but you like remember him because of his Collared Shirts.
He didn’t outright quit skating. I saw him skating two days ago in Santa Monica. He even had a nice shirt on

What? He said he was near the end of being able to preform at level he’s happy with and didn’t want to hang around milking it.

Dark blue flannel looking shirt. Sleeves rolled up. It was at the courthouse. Not really a spot I’d expect him to be skating
@TwisT I’m pretty sure that’s why he stopped skating professionally. The slams he took were brutal. Every once in a while I hear of someone catching him skating in public. This is the first time I’d ever seen him skating
-
I like Heath Kirchart because he wears Hook Ups shirts and those are got sick pictures of chicks on em and that is cool
-
figureitout = FASHIONISTA
And Nick Cave is sooo overrated. The people I know who rep him hardcore complete tools & pretentious so makes complete sense why you hate on Clive Dixon
Woah now, let’s not drag Nick Cave into this. The man’s got enough on his plate.

Quit being a paid professional.
Retired from a professional skateboarding career.
Said "No" free money.
Gino has had more clips out in the last decade then Heath.

That’s the thing. Heath had clearly visible personality and style without resorting to gimmicks, Clive doesn’t. That’s ok but it makes Clive less memorable. He really does look like “average someone” doing gnarly shit. I like gnarly shit but I prefer people who rip (a little less?) with personality and style that I like. For me skateboarding never was about being the best.
-
Lol at Clive not having an “identity”.
Wtf he’s been rocking the same Midwest skinnish punk/rock outfits for ages.
Yeah ok sometimes he switched from all black to jeans and a colored hat.. Sheeesh sometimes he also dared to go from long hair to a buzz cut!
Maybe it’s just not your aesthetics and it’s fine but some of you are just typing bullshit.

Heath didn’t have personality lol literally played the mysterious guy his whole career. Clive just smiles too much. But really he done some tricks heath would have never stepped to

clive also has some of the worst music selection in the history of skateboarding

I feel like Matt Berger will goto Disorder aswell.

anyone talking about clothes and haircuts is under 18

I should give Nigel a hand full of ripping minced black metal. Just put a nail in crust punk.
Salem is fucked. I walked out my front door and there was a high fashion shoot or something going on. The models gasped and swooned at the sight of real black acrilic coated filth.
Stud count is high af with this one.
I throw down my skate and I don't give it a second glance. Head to the store. On my way back I see max max and his motley crew are doing the thriller dance.
All I can think about is harmony tapdance in corpse paint and frickin troll hair. Lol. That's disorder.
Salem is too much man
It's like a bacvvm cleaner for soccer moms who want to be like Rob Halford
