Riddle me this, how is Antoine Asselin not pro???

[botefdunn]

I look forward to this thread every year. Antoine always pro in my heart.

[schralp pal]

He makes very nice beats on The Bunt

[euro tm]

Man hes far above Alltimers , thats like a weird minor league team

Get this man on something with a budget, i think hes far better than jack "wack" olson

Hes not the best skater on real by far... also hes got the most unoriginal boring style so hes actually the worst skater on real to me

do not disrespect zered like that

[Sidewalk Funk.]

 I've been wondering why he's not pro ever since the Dime videos started gaining traction years ago. Great style and skates fast.

[ihatejulio]

When was his last full part? Has he ever won a big contest? Has he ever had a cover? Is he productive on social media? Are people really demanding his board constantly?? Fuck no.  He  doesnt even deserve it

Fuck him and all pro skaters that have not done the proper career requirements to meet professional designation! The American Skateboard Federation should not give him a permit to mandate pro status from Real. I'm glad us jocks know what's up bro!

[globe fusion]

great skater but hasn't been putting out as much footage in the past bit

even on dime trips you dont see him often

he seems to be fairly busy with dime which makes sense and might be financially better for him

[iwishilivedinfinla]

Jack Olson is just Moose with red hair

[ChrisLambe94]

He rips, he has a succesful creative side endeavor, bonus streetwear points or whatever

What happened?? Real is distracted by terminator olympic jocks, they forgot to hook up the real players

Dissapointed and curious

No doubt pal , Antoine has been killing it for awhile. He's so so good.

Lol this,  I can see why you Slap heads swing from his penis because he has that Marc Succi swag and all but cmon, lets get real here.

[Soft Boiled]

Antoine absolutely rips, but I don’t really see him on Alltimers. Dude definitely deserves a board with his name on it though. Speaking of deserving pros, Alex better turn Vincent Touzery pro this year.

It's really hard to go pro for a big American company if you don't move to the States from Canada. Blind kept Morgan Smith AM for like 4 years longer than they should have.

no disrespect to zered at all! he is light years beyond them, its not my fault he joined.
its like hes babysitting the rest of the team at this rate, hes forever underrated. Could easily join a team like Primitive in my eyes

If Dime is enough to live off of , i understand the choice, makes more sense.
Seems like itd be more fun to stay in MTL with your real friends then move out to California to pretend to be something youre not, now that people have pointed out Dime takes up a lot of time to run.

Its just honestly ridiculous with his skill level, unless he rejected the offer ? Cant see a reason for him not to be.

James Hardy went pro and then disappeared into the woods,  not that theres anything wrong with that but doesnt seem like Real really has a consistent meter of who is deserving. Of course theres multiple factors, not pretending I know more than Jim T. With jake gone, he seems like the godfather of the industry now, everyone goes to him in times of need.

In my mind, take Brock off since hes not putting out footage either?     (Ramondetta gracefully dipped)
 Is he the southern nike tm now when sinclair is busy eating?

Id say Nik Stain has been ripping harder, he deserves it before if not at the same time as Vincent.

[ScudMantels]

What even defines being a pro anyways, it's a popularity contest. All AMs are pro, Real would rather turn someone like skatemoss pro because it will benefit them a lot more.

Having your last name on the bottom of a board, otherwise yeah i see what you mean. idk anything about her but you can see the greed in her eyes, as soon as she saw the opportunity to become "instagram famous" she pounced

DLX wouldn't turn someone like Skatemoss pro, it would significantly damage their brand's reputation and it's not like they need more press. They have some of the most popular skaters alive riding/representing their brands, young (Ishod, Grant, etc) and Old (Gonz, Cardiel).

Just wanted to say: thank you for setting up your question this way.

May all future question-based posts begin with "Riddle me this..."

[j....soy.....]

move to SoCal, change his name to Aton Assling and get on Blind.....

i think brock is their TM or something now

antoine's been on a few nb# trips and there hasn't been much footage from it besides a fs heelflip here and there

would make sense if he opted to focus on dime and stay in mtl with his friends, but he could have definitely turned pro with more recent footage

[Allen.]

there was not one riddle in this riddle based thread

I like Zered and I like Alltimers. It's obvious he's in a league of his own, there or anywhere else. But now most pros on nike/Adidas/cons need to just have a pro board somewhere in order to get the pro paycheck from those shoe companies, not because they're getting a huge check from the board company.

Jack Olson is just Moose with red hair

Jack olsons throwaway footage is better than antoines best shit. Moose also rips. But sure you fuckin fags wanna suck off andrew allen, and pretend elissa steamer is the most impressive skater of all time.

[Allen.]

You’re that dude that gets aroused by Tommy Sandoval’s skating huh

[Tuna]

Moose dyes his hair red all the time. Maybe as a ploy to attract the young girls.
