917 blowing it

[disintegration]

Nik Stain and Vincent Touzery should have definitely been made pro a long time ago. I can't think of a company that has kept two deserving skaters am this long. People might disagree but they need to be pro.

[BarbaraStreisand]

Alex must have picked up the Crailtap business model while walking out.

[juuhnuuh]

You must have some inside information who says they want to be pro? 917 just lost a pro and it costs money to turn people pro and pay them. And if we are honest are we really buying 917 like that?

[Jerkstore]

bianca chandon makes the cash

917 has been lukewarm at best for a while, dudes should get on krooked

[heckler]

They're dropping a new video early next year. Maybe Nik and Vince will go pro along with that.

Yeah, these guys should leave their friends to go on tour with sebo fucking walker and get knockoff keith haring characters drawn on their griptape when they arent looking.

Buh buh he lived in a van at the skatepark

[alraunen]

After a couple of years of flow looks like Pedro Attenborough is oficially on the squad, he made it in to the last trip.

they fell into a weird aesthetic and need to ditch it .. it’s stale at this point .. nice skaters tho

[schralp pal]

The movie was one of the best last year

I also think 917 and FA will trade aiden back and forth for a while as some sort of gimmick but I’m no euro tm

[Little Debbie]

does 917 even do print ads? or is it all just social media and the very occasional video offering?

I have been waiting for skate teams to start trading riders for ever.

[opinionated bastard]

they aren't having problems at all, just not following the conventional skateboard company business model, vince and Nik will be pro sooner than later

[GAY]

It's already later.

yeah because this outrage was in now way inspired by a video that came out a week ago

I think AO's immense fear to be categorized and associated to an already existing image, in order to remain "unlabeled" or "original", is indeed kind of backfiring. in a way he does accomplish to make 917 be unlike any other brand but i dont know if that's good or bad at this point. then again i wanted that max palmer long sleeve but it sold out in a second. couldn't afford it anyway.

vincent should be on a company that can actually move boards for him. unfortunately the only potential fit is fa but they're full and doesn't raelly seem right for him idk.

i believe the company youre looking for is krooked

[lampshade]

So, by looking at their site, they sell a ton of shirts, but the boards/hats are always in stock.

917 feels like a polished version of frog .. which is like a polished turd

I noticed that too but then I think they started making slightly larger runs. a few years ago, the boards would sell out hella fast too

[City of Drunken Totems]

I like some Nik stain as much as everyone else but I really dont know if he's near the same level as vincent, He has like 1 or 2 clips in things everyone else has full parts in

He was in 'Trocadero Days,' but never fully on Polar I believe.  I could see him on there.

[taliban]

917 seems like a company that would promote HIV AIDS in a positive light. Can't shake those AIDS vibes.

[CHONGO]

Never bought anything 917 but enjoyed the video they came out with earlier this year. Do they sell pretty good?
