I never thought i'd say this, but is it possible for Crailtap to be in danger of going under, due to this rampant "cool guy" paradigm shift while under duress from this change of management[who are blowing it]?

The Ty Evans days are gone, Meza's edits were unique and true to their aesthetic, he's gone too. The new kids handling the media are far from filling the shoes. Who still is influential on their roster? I could see Malto, Yonnie, Manchild, and Raven being very easily compensated better elsewhere. 

Is it wrong i'm starting to see Crailtap as a smaller version of what happened to Dwindle? What an accurate name for a company of their history.

There's a short clip of him cheering Aidan Mackay in the 917 video, after he ollies a roof gap and ollies off the roof. He could have been filming a "welcome to the team" part for a while. But, i'm unsure if that's Olson's style.

I think they're more likely to become like Powell Peralta than maintain the cool guy image at this point. They were the cool guys in the 90's who led a mass exodus from the cool guy company at the time. It's mostly kids born around 1999-2003 that are dictating what's cool now. Kids born in the 70's to the mid 80's are responsible for Girl/Chocolate being on fire when they were.

Probably should start a new "Trail Going Down" topic for this. But, yeah, that ship appears to be sinking and all the trunk boys in the world can't bail it out.

In the meanwhile, Jerry on 917... cool... I guess. I was hoping for a full-on return of Jerry and Marc to Enjoi.

There's a short clip of him cheering Aidan Mackay in the 917 video, after he ollies a roof gap and ollies off the roof. He could have been filming a "welcome to the team" part for a while. But, i'm unsure if that's Olson's style.

Olson's style seems like it's never fully disclosing who is on the team to begin with. Remember how much we had to guess who was even on up until the release of their vid? Unfortunately there's prob no real easy way to confirm this.

Alex tried to get Jerry on after he quit Enjoi. I don't think he fits that well, but its interesting how well Olson has done after looking/being protrayed as a spoiled brat for quitting Girl and then 3D in like a 2 month span. 917 has put together a pretty sick team, Max Palmer is amazing.

Could be true. To be honest he's never really seemed that involved with the crailtap family

In his Boys of Summer footage you saw him casually filming with Rickk (Darkslide ender), but its pretty clear he was more friends with MJ than the Crailtap fam. Although, does that crew even really exist anymore? They have current riders and such (and tried to label the Trunk Boyz as such). Pretty much everyone who defined that family vibe of Crailtap is gone and/or off doing their own thing. Jeron owns part of Diamond and focuses on that, Tony Ferguson is focusing on his shoe company, Meza left for Vice, McCrank is focusing on Vice, Scott Johnston moved on, Mike York is long gone, BA, Koston, Gino, and Guy left. The only OG who helped define the company who is somewhat active is Chico, but I think he also focuses mostly on his side business. Now it is more a company than a family.

Not to say 917 isnt good and alex isnt doing great with his two companies, but he didnt hand pick a team of random unknowns.  Johnny wilson and crew had already made a grip of videos that all had a following underground and in the industry.  He just gave them more of a platform, which in turn gave his brand an image.  Without the team johnny wilson sort of built 917 is like a more palatable skate mental, no direction just rip offs.

917 definitely has more of an image now after the video, but thats what, 3 years after the first drop of product?

Hey man, I smell what they're steppin' in. A lot of 917 and FA's art is kinda uninspired, some are direct copy pastes or heavily influenced off something that already existed. Compare that to early 90s McKee and Cliver stuff and it can pretty easily make any die-hard lifer skating fan a bit bitter.
