Might re-visit some of Tommy Gunz parts, that instagram teaser clip had all bangers and you'd forget how great that guy was for so long. I haven't even really thought about him in the longest, but looking forwrd to this.

I didn’t get the part where Kevin said it was lame for kids to try and mimic Sean & Sage. He later goes on to say that Sage & Sean mimic and emulate other pros (ie dylan, dill, ave) and get their influence from them and says it’s “their thing” and that it’s lame that other kids copy them. In his eyes, shouldn’t Sage and Sean be lame as well for copying the pros that they look up to? Seems somewhat of a double standard.

Overall the interview was great, though. I didn’t know much about Kevin and he seems like a rad dude with a good head on his shoulders. I watched the Slap Pals interview after listening to this one

lol basically they invented taking influences from beloved pros so now no one else can without looking corny

^probs versace plugs account.

to all the haters, don't listen to the episode and keep your rude comments to yourself. the bunts not your pod, they can interview whoever tf they want. Being a piece of shit online is the lamest thing ever. if you wouldn't say shit to somebodies face, don't say it online.

I probably shouldn’t even start this fire but the same could be said for the 9 Club on this forum. I see a lot of full on hatred that seems very unwarranted lol. Does the Bunt deserve to be cancelled if they don’t touch on the Yonny Cruz situation?

His story of stealing a VX is dramatically different than when he told it on the Nine Club. What a brat.

i'll at least skim it, but i'm not sure if it is my unbias or not-- he falls under the category of people that have enough interviews out there already
i don't want to link to the channel because is promotes athiesm.

Yeah, the Nine Club version of that story was a lot shadier on his part.

I was thinking the same thing, Cephas always talked about getting hooked up with Nike's over the years. I really wonder if these Nike rumor's are true.

It was a breath of fresh air to openly hear a pro disparage Nike over and over again. Tommy Gunz is the real deal and it seems he would rather be poor than to over go the corporate route.

But then again, being real gets you riding for Krux, so who's really the winner here?

seems kinda crazy for him to say that nike sb is going under like that on a well known podcast. there has to at least be some weight to it if he’s confident enough in saying it knowing a lot of people in the industry will most likely hear it or hear about it. also seems a bit unlikely with how many people skate their shoes, if anything maybe just a big team cut? was the only mention of this in his rapid fire (i skimmed through)

I'd guess 'going under' in this case means not turning enough of a giant profit to Nike's taste and therefore getting cut by their C-suite. Skaters in swooshes everywhere, as you said. But I may well be wrong.

He made it sound like team cuts and limiting the shops that can carry it. What big names are no longer on Nike? It would seem crazy for the biggest sporting goods brand to pull out of a sport they dominate right before it’s debut at the biggest global sports event in the world.

They could be switching their strategy on how many people they support. Team page alone has 50 skaters and they pay a ton of other skaters too. They could just focus on 5-10 big names and kick the rest of. Easier to manage and probably wouldn't make much difference on their sales

That's exactly what they are doing.

Along with pulling out of skate shops and selling direct.
