It’s a prime brand from what I heard.

Hand screened and pressed by Prime. Still not worth $99 imo, autographed or not.

Hey man, he's got five kids to feed!

Andy Anderson, I cannot sanction your buffoonery.

Honestly, love this guy's skating.
Been following him for awhile and supised he hasn't already been sponsored by someone...

He may be a park rat but his casual bowl style is fucking good.

All he needs is to film a proper edit. I don't think his skating is lacking at all.
Glad hes pro but for this? Meh.
no, i live in an efficiency by myself and work in middle management like you, loser

Other than all the Berrics stuff, does he skate anywhere other than Venice Park?

He’s posted some stuff that looks like the streets right around that park. Like he had to park far away. Does that count? No? Ok.

It's bizarre that he went from putting out a part with Jim Greco and now he's doing this whack shit. Say what you will about Jim Greco's recent videos (I like them, think they're at least distinct in an ocean of the same old shit) but at least he's not some scientologist/youtube buillshit. I figured he'd end up skating for Deathwish or Hammers something.

I think they're $99 cause they're signed (not sure who would care about a signed deck from this dude but *shrug*)

Regardless, boards should be more expensive and if Berrics has to pull the trigger so be it.
none of us skate we just make fun of it

Kinda strange to get the “Surprise! You’re pro!” party when it’s a company with no team so you don’t have any teammates to celebrate with.

That graphic is pretty rough, does skateboarding really need another run of mediocre anime boards?  Asking for a friend.

I'm guessing this is the start of their interpretation of what Braille and Remive are doing--posting tons of video content, using "limited, exclusive drops" to push merch, and sponsoring people who are content with skating their local while never doing the traditional pro things (filming parts, shooting ads, etc.)
[close]

This is 100% what they’re trying to do. Sill insane that it’s $100 for a deck. I know boards should be more expensive than they are but they can’t be that much more expensive, can they?



I miss $49.99 for a pro deck, every deck is like $63 without grip, that's way too expensive imo. Maybe theyd be worth that much if the graphics were silk screened and pressed in america but $63 for china pressed heat transfers? Hell nawww

just throw the boy on a deluxe brand as an am and turn him pro in a year
and make him skate somewhere besides venice park.
dude rips seems genuine, he just needs someone to get him on the streets and film fisheye.

Berrics knows exactly what they're doing and it will work great. Obviously the SLAP demographic is not what they are going for here.

Actually, looks like they are already sold out.

I don't personally enjoy this branding and marketing, just like Remive and all that don't appeal to me, but obviously this new style of youtube/skatepark/limited edition skate company has a lot of appeal some younger demographic. I also think most modern pop music is terrible and I don't understand what they hell is going on with the tiktok, but such happens when one gets older.

I used to be with it, but then they changed what it was. Now, what I'm with isn't it. And what's it seems weird and scary to me.
Warm Up Zone. Let's watch some skateboarding videos.

The funny thing about an online store claiming there is a certain amount of decks for sale at a certain inflated price and then later stating that it is sold out is that it sounds an awful like a certain someone claiming to backside flip El Toro.

Just claims, man.

I pity the dude that turns pro in this fucked up way. I liked the guy's skating at venice, sure, I haven't seen it translate anywhere near as well at other places but fuck, I never knew he was this lame until this berrics stuff came about. Does anyone know how old he is? If he's an older dude tryna get the bag while he can then fair enough. If he's still a young buck then why sell yourself so short with this bullshit? Can't comprehend it.

I’m surprised someone would be so confident in a berrics brand, didn’t they have another board company that didn’t do well? Sovrn or something like that, I just remember their ads looked like they were selling perfume
