Is it just me or is it kinda weird or a current sponsored pro to have a guest model for another company?

I know krooked does it but they are all personalized art and wall hangers. As opposed to what's basically a tweaked logo board.

It is kinda weird but both parties make some money. Guy probably smokes down with all of sk8mafia

Someone needs to use this portrait for a Guy board.

I think any company that had a chance to have guy mariano's name on one of their boards would make a guest board for him

You'd think they would do something a little more personalized, but still pretty sick.

Guy has likely grown tired of the shitty Girl wood and requested an alternative

This is coming from the guy who actually paid money for Zero decks.

+As potent as my original comment was, I have a friend who's most recent deck was a Sk8Mafia and It wasn't all that. I wouldn't doubt that Girl wood is better than theirs.

I couldn't resist taking the jab though!

its probably going to sell like hotcakes thats why they did it.

yeah nigga ive bought many different boards in my day, therefore i know what im talking about when i say that their decks arent sub-par compared the typical skateboard. neither of those companies are the best, but they are still not shitty. you can pick up a bad deck from any brand due to whatever reason. you just on some hatin shit tryna be funny, but you not even funny.

in my own experience zero & skatemafia boards both keep their shape longer but chip easier. girl's dont chip as much and have good pop but can start flexing & losing their shape faster. that was only with one that i had tho, the other two were pretty solid

Cliche also made a Gonz guest board. I think guest boards are a pretty sick idea, but they should be done pretty infrequently. Seems like that would make it more special.

Definitely agree. I only ride Girl boards and love them. Never understood why people kept saying they use shit wood

Cosme · « **Reply #21 on:** May 28, 2012, 06:39:46 AM »

I've been riding Girl & Choc exclusively for the last 10 years - love the shapes and always had a solid lasting pop.

I don't get the reason for that crappy fame they have. Often I tried my friends' boards - dlxs and dnas -, and couldn't been able to feel that superior quality. Even though other kids boards - jarts and enjois and other dwindles -, are easy to feel uncomfortable in.

Maybe I am way to used to them or it's the extra time shipment to europe that makes them special

Magic Pizza · « **Reply #22 on:** May 28, 2012, 10:13:27 AM »

Pros having guest boards on other companies is just like wive swapping, a lot of these pros were born in the 1970s too, so it's basically a hippy lifestyle choice that was ingrained in their perverse upbringing.

It's good to know that despite our differences, everyone can agree that dwindle wood blows.
