It's a reference to a plan the OP had in another thread he made about shitty kids trashing the local park.
wane brady also badly needs to resize his signature photo... free advertising to the richest skateboarder lol... When I'm browsing on PC it takes up an entire screen
Same with that bozo who has two big 404 error gifs as his sig. Can't remember their name

Indifferent, but only rode AH back in the late 90s, mainly in support of Cardiel. Maybe AH might be nearing its lifespan, just for the fact there is discussion around this question, OP would've been kooked to oblivion historically. Hesh image not as popular nowadays with the masses, lot of kids subscribe to Polar, Palace, FA, Primitive images where I am. One hesh to every 20 Tiago or Tyshawn etc clones

What area of the country are you from?
As far as marketing is concerned, at least AH are pretty much the only major hesh company that is still relevant, meaning that instead of the hesh kids spreading their money between AH, creature, slave, etc like they did 10-15 years ago, it's all just going to AH. Honestly I'd be surprised if they weren't doing better now than they were 10 years ago.

AH has been a joke ever since Hewitt filmed his first clip wearing nikedidn't bob gnar do something previously that was considered corporate? or is that what got him kicked off? hewitt did shitface which is the most antihero way to get kicked off nike.
I wonder what kind of mental gymnastics julien has to do every day to justify supporting biggest shoe corpo on earth milking everything they can out of skating
He should force everyone to drop nike and get everyone on a contract with last resort where everyone would still have to pay for shoes
seriously if anyone cornered julien in an interview to ask him his thoughts on his riders wearing nike I would love to see his response
everyone has a price innit

Yes Julien confront him to choose AH or X Games.
And this was his biggest regret looking back as a Skateboard company owner.
Because he weight his own principles more then the needs of this friend.
This coud answer all of your questions concerning his mindsetting about Nike -
If your friend decide to get that Nike paycheck and do this olympics - what weight more:
your principles to be respected from others
or your friendship with them.
I really like Anti Hero - and its one of the few company i buy - because i am fine with
team, ownership, product, and aesthetics in general.
Coud it be better - yes for sure - everyting coud be better. But i like it a lot.
But i definitely dont like the Anti Hero Clone Clowns who overpopulate any Bowl Skatepark.
People can't eat off of clout. I understand that Anti Hero is anti corporate as fuck si it does go against what they initially professed. But let's be real would you tell Grant Taylor to fuck off because he rides Nikes? I feel they are being smart and collabing with big brands while still keeping it pretty low key (meaning they aren't sponsoring youtubers or street league). Its a smart thing to use huge companies to make money for yourself without having your companies image change that muchExpand QuoteExpand QuoteExpand Quotedidn't bob gnar do something previously that was considered corporate? or is that what got him kicked off? hewitt did shitface which is the most antihero way to get kicked off nike.Expand QuoteAH has been a joke ever since Hewitt filmed his first clip wearing nike

I can totally understand this, and I think it’s an important grey area when dealing with a brand that professes to be ‘anti-corporate’ yet has riders with corporate sponsors. So that doesn’t really bother me.
What does bother me tho is that they went a step further and actually did collaborations with the biggest and shittiest (Nike, and Supreme while it was a Carlyle bitch) so they lost all respect and significance in my eyes. Just another hollow marketing gimmick.

They definitely sell in Zumiez and all Vans chain locations. It's a fashion brand for high school aged girls right now right behind Thrasher.
Like it but don’t love it.Haha this is exactly it
Still a solid brand that makes a good product. The sponsored dudes are sick but they have probably the corniest flow lackeys in the game.
There’s also like 2 types of antihero superfans. The annoying 40 year old guy in high socks who yells “yew” because you carved a bowl real fast. And the lowkey sick outdoorsy type, likes mountain biking and climbing but hates how classist those crowds are.

I don't take pictures of high school aged girls, but I went to a local mall last week to go to the Apple Store. I had an AH hat on. Several high school aged males and females complemented me on my hat and/or were wearing your basic Eagle hoodie. This shit was trending well before the pandemic. It's insane to think that the current company is comparable to what it was even 10 years ago. Like it or not all the DLX brands are pretty damn mainstream. See also my barista this morning wearing a Krooked mermaid hoodie.
