Legacy (Strubing, Shane Cross, Mumford) lasted only a few months.

Shaolin was a Dwindle company in ‘98 that I think lasted 3 months or less. I saw Ryan Kenreich with one at HB park.

Young Guns with Trainwreck, Joey Poirez and Antwuan back when they still called him Big Kandy. I don’t even remember if they came out with bloards...
At least when you're a washed-out hipster douchebag in NY, you can milk it at some decent looking, hard to skate spots. In LA you're just a tan-lined faggot in a school yard somewhere.

I had a Young Guns board b/c I was hyped on Trainwreck at the time.  It was yellow or orange and had like an old west/Clint Eastwood type graphic.

Six Gun out of the Black Label camp was around about a year? Either way I was backing anything Jason Adams was doing when I was 14.

How long did Crimson last? I remember getting a deck not too long after the brand came out, and it was terminated quite soon after that and I ended up keeping the board for the collection.

throughout the 70s 80s and 90s every skateboard magazine has an ad from some fly by night skate company that never was heard from again. some wannabe skate companies made ads and never even made product.

Bootleg was around for years.
Legacy maybe was around for one?
Artafact has to only be around for 6 months if that.
Hollywood was around god less than three years.
Given/crimson maybe four total
For someone w.no signature ur awfully hostile, & that is why I do this

Seek was a weird one. Lack of art direction killed that brand, which is weird considering that they were out of Alien who had some of the sickest design ever. They had a good team. All they needed was a guy to say no to painting all of the boards fucking chrome.

Rick Kane started his own brand in 2011 before starting your own brand was cool, he got injured and the graphics didn’t come out right so he had to fold it.
