Because he's got that spirit you love to hate. Plus it's rumoured that he prefers phillips heads.

sebo is undeniably good but the whole fun/ goofy guy schtick is boring and feels contrived,
krook2d/krook3d line up was made up of people who just seemed cool to be around with,
hanging out with sebo probably means you end the session with icecream at stoner
instead of 3d icecream at some cool bank spot with bobby

Franky Villani ruins Primitive and Primitive ruins Franky Villani. He is great and Primitive's output often fantastic, however him being on that team is just so wrong conceptually. Maybe that's cool in its own way, but for some reason I cannot get over it.

But, didn't him and Andy's prison sexuality balance it out?

For me, a lot of board teams ruined when they got too big and only cared about sneaker sponsors.

Brad Staba and Daniel Haney was a one-two punch that Foundation never recovered from. Was not their fault for having to follow Tentacles and Rolling Thunder.

The Mull brothers skate for the Worble, which is one of the sickest companies out right now.

I would say Sean Pablo but I dont like the brands he skates for anyway. Zach Allen is the correct answer. Shop sponsored dudes are better than that guy but he's on a legacy brand filled with rippers. He's probably a really cool guy though. That's the only way I can imagine how he got on. He's gotta know he's not good too. He's probably really thankful.
Before you say the music sucked, have you considered shutting the fuck up?

I don't know, does one oddball make a team more well rounded? But hey, looks like they hit it off just fine..
