Peter Watkins on a Slave trip...

[seamoose]

i noticed in this video there is some Peter footage, and it says nothing about "our friend who came along" or anything like that but it does say his name in the credits. Maybe he just went on the trip for fun? Who knows, but would this be a good move for Watkins if it was true?

Well I see it as a most likely. They put his name in with their riders and he was riding a Slave in one of the clips

[seamoose]

oh shit i didn't notice that he was riding a slave board

[Randozzi]

he wasn't riding a $lave, Black Label.

[seamoose]

I actually just heard that he is staying on label and simply went on the trip because he is good friends with those guys

we can only hope this is the start of something beautiful for the best company in skateboarding right now and one of the most underappreciated pros in the game right now

Exactly.

Watkins is still on the Black Label team page for whatever that's worth. As much as I like Black Label (at one point in time my favorite board company), it's not looking good for them. They've lost a lot of pros recently and you rarely see any coverage of the ones they have left (who I actually really like). They have great ams, but it's only a matter of time before they get swooped up for something bigger/better. I hate to say it but Black Label may be the next board company to go under.

They've been hemorrhaging pros lately.

So Dicola quit as a fat guy, Raybourne turned into one of my favorites though I hated him a year ago and Slave now also has a legit Adam Dyet in the team. And Watkins is on (let me think he's on, just let me). That is like fucking awesome.

Raybourn has been killing it non stop.  I watch this and can't help but think how awesome it would be if Keegan Sauder was part of it.
