I hear about the whole Nike trying to hit up Olson too. And as far as Gravis goes, it's Arto and Dylan so far, and i heard another big name is supposed to be on too who is unmeantioned.

But trustttttt, Olson is on Vans....

Title: Re: Alex Olson on Vans
Post by: SFblah on April 23, 2008, 05:02:48 AM
I could care less if he does anything switch either.  In fact I think it's sick that while everyone else is worried about their part having enough "switch" he says fuck it, and does what he wants.

And I have a feeling that what he can do switch probably looks as good as his reg stuff.  Style and speed.  I can imagine a good switch tre.

there was photos of him on epiclylaterd.com skating in chucks months ago. i really don't think he cares much about wearing his sponsors gear. he's the jerry fowler of the 00's

I disagree, i thought it looked great. that was crazy clear footy. the quality however, of pop's tricks weren't quite as high. Im accually a huge pops fan but why would you slomo and repeat the frontboard and kickflip. the other guy tho, was really tight. he shoulda been slomoed. What am i thinkin, its just HD test footy.

New to the skate scene when they had Mullen and Hosoi? Or Guy? Or when they made helium-filled boots and Felix's El Duque?

They have a history of sponsoring the right guys (Felix being the acception) but still fucking up somehow. Granted, the Chany 1 was well-received in its day, I just doubt they can do anything to revive a company that now survives solely on Chuck Taylor nostalgia.

Lizard King wearing Av Eras.
[close]

Lizard's never really held a steady shoe deal. I thought he was rolling with the Circa "combat" deal or whatever they call it.


 i heard he got kicked off because on the first tour him and abadas got into a fight and beat the shit out of eachother while they were drunk
=X

If so, I'm pretty hyped for Abdias. I always knew he could get down like that.

They didn't fight they were about to. Abdias was asked who would win in a fight between him and Lizard, and he said Lizard would. They were about to get into it pretty bad he said.

Lizard is probably just waiting for his indy clothing contract to expire.  I just got an email from indy a week or two ago advertising his signature denim.

Dude had better hope the dudes at kr3w and baker are down with him, seems like he's burning bridges with all the sponsor jumping.

am i the only one who dislikes this lizard dork? he acts like a tard, can't handle his drink, obviously is incapable of handling the business side of things, and is going to burn every bridge in the skate industry before the year is through

His 270 lip slide in the Deathwish vid was proper....but yeah, he better not burn bridges like how Darrell Stanton did with DLX. That dude had it all (Real, Thunder, Vans or to a lesser degree DC...and I guess he still has Volcom) and jumped ship to rid for PLan B and then to the weakest shit in the industry.....Element.

I dig Lizard. I hate to say it but good that he left THINK but Krew.....fuck that!

I agree Mr Fong. he never really fit at Think and he would be dumb to leave the Indy Clothing deal, unlress they are paying him peanuts. As for jumping ship, he's been on Indy and Spit since Think, so he's only changed board sponsors, right?

he was on Vox for a hot sec. too, wasn't he?

That think pro debut video was pretty cool.  Even though he seems like  complete tool, he's pretty fun to watch.

lizard rides for vans.
he had vans stickers on his board at one of the recent deathwish demos and those guys go through a board every few days, so its undoubtedly fresh and not a coincidence that the sticker was on his board.
oh, and he was skating the neckface ave sk8 lows.
hes a cool guy and rips, i dont think the hate is warranted.

p.s. anyone who thinks staying faithful to think is a fucking moron. that company is a dead end. lizard said the reason it sucked so bad is because tony vitello only wanted to put money into city because it was far more successful than think.
even drehobl had the sense to leave. i dont see anyone casting stones at him...

i havnt been a fan of circa for a long time and the combat divisions shoes (as with all circas) arent very good. i wish gerwer would leave and find a better company like vans
