Aside from the fact that he didn’t. You know that fat guy who keeps arguing witg Merlino is Sinclair right? He’s not a mystery guest man...
Are you a kook? If you would say this, the answer is “YES”
I quit skating for a time due to piling out

Who was the guy that did the front heel over the bump to bar during king of the road ? that was ridiculous casual.

In the U.K all the Tum Yeto brands are distributed by these guys https://www.tkcsales.co.uk/
Who also distribute toys and some pretty terrible shit. Whats more they are owned or directly aligned ( I maybe wrong ) with Route one the biggest chain store in the U.K so many core stores don't fuck with any Tum Yeto brands as a result.

I've been a life long Toy Machine fan but have bought the minimum of their product because they are often only available in Route one stores.

I believe Corey glick did that. The same guy that bs noseblunted that dompierre got the cover for. I didn’t realize how good he was and I’m alsosuper jealous of his moustache

His moustache is fucking powerful.

Wasn’t Dompierres a bail?

Yep. Apparently he was planning on going back but got injured. And that’s when the whole bath salts thing happened


Let’s hear some about this.

Because I'm old, I have fond memories of the Super Co. days and videos like TOD, Barbarians, etc.

When I started up skating again 5-plus years ago, they seemed to have gone through a bit of an identity crises and were yet another butt rocker rail chomper team with a limited color palette (black) for their graphics. Yawn.

But props to them for lasting as long they have. I hope they are able to keep going.

They still kinda are?

I rode a foundation board recently, it was fine, shape was ok but flat as fuck.

The artwork has drastically improved over the past few years. They use Clay Halling and Kenny Banzai most of the time now, neither go black heavy. Here's a good amount from Clay: http://clayhalling.com/foundation-skateboards/

The art has been pretty good the last few drops but still on the darker end of the color spectrum:

mike Sinclair walking away for nike money might have been one of the best things to happen to foundation in the last 10 years.

Aside from the fact that he didn’t. You know that fat guy who keeps arguing witg Merlino is Sinclair right? He’s not a mystery guest man...

I thought he quit foundation to take a job at nike, is that wrong?

Barbarians at the gate is a top 3 tour video and has one of the best soundtracks to any video.

Always liked the Justin Lovely graphics and don't mind Swanks art either. However I could do without so many graphics that have the moon As a focal point.

Adding Glicks name to a board after KOTR would be well deserved. This team seems to love being around each other and you can tell spend a bunch of time together. As people said earlier I have a new perspective of Foundation, and even Element minus nyjah. Seem to all be tight and have some good relationships as a team. Nonetheless Foundations on the up swings IMO.
