All of the random Euro pros would make for one hell of a good team. Someone with the resources could pull it off and make something very cool and special.

We're due for a reboot, ironic if it was relaunched through Dwindle again and Deez still has to see Louie at the office.

I still think if deedz was on a euro company he would be even more popular....ie. Gustav.....

I could see him on polar

Honestly he completely seems like a Polar skater to me.

Back this, his loose & fllowy style would fit right along with Ville & Jamie.

He's off. Just said so in his insta story.



i've never quite understood why someone would quit without having another thing fully lined up already. i understand you aren't planning on staying long term, but how is it better to forgo a paycheck, free product, etc, while you search for a new sponsor?

anytime a friend just straight quits their job i feel the same way too.


i don’t think any of you are real, i think slap was invented by my mom to make me think people want to talk to me

I suspect that the $5000/y in board revenue from Enjoi wasn't worth it.

a skater friend who works as a programmer quit his secure government job a few months ago cause he was tired of some political bullshit inside of it, now I just saw a post of him bitching on social media for not getting any new job response... dude come on we dont have 18 anymore

Maybe something of a stretch but I'd like to see him on Uma. Really liked their first video and it'd be cool to see them bolster the roster with some established pros with a creative approach that deserve more shine. Nick Garcia already heading there, right?

isn't the word on the street they straight up haven't gotten paid in months?
Skateboardings gotta be the worst industry for just not paying people and it's somehow all treated like it's ok and normal. The least you could do it quit so they can't keep making money off your name I guess

I think often it’s contracts and companies don’t renew or renew for much worse, then guys quit…..

I'm sure his nike check keeps the lights on, people like him, he'll be fine.

What does he mean by "riding a panda"?

In my opinion Enjoy today is slightly less lame then the modern version of Blind. Coolest Dwindle brand though if that is a trophy you want ;D Darkstar in the bottom.

not only is nike paying his bills, its also the line on his resume that ensure's he'll find another board sponsor

His name is worth 10 alone. (Is that the Keelan Dadd quote?)

We're due for a reboot, ironic if it was relaunched through Dwindle again and Deez still has to see Louie at the office.

Or to rephrase, if Louie has to see Deez at the office.

There's so much talent out there without proper sponsors these days. One solution would be for the legitimate board companies to squad up like shoe/wheel/truck companies. 50 guys on a team. Another way would be the shoe companies doing things like Nike SB Wood with big teams. I think the best thing would be for the big shoe companies to do what they were always accused of but never really happened: provide logistical and management support for boutique board companies. Deedz could have kind of a 360 deal with Nike and be the face of a board company almost entirely run by Nike. But Nike wouldn't want to give up any ownership stake. Skaters at the peak of their abilities would often rather skate than be stuck running a company. Kind of shows why a guy like Rocco was necessary, and enabled such a golden era.
My vote is Deedz and Vincent on 917.

Is there any need to have 50 professional skateboarders in total? In the 80s boom years there were about 30 pros? People on the lesser companies like Alva, or the freestylers, were working in the warehouses, manning the phone sales etc.
