Free Product You Wouldn't Even Use

[brucewillis]

I received a Crail mouse pad and a Anti-Hero car air freshener that I never used.

Can you imagine any AH rider using a air freshener?

I couldn't wear anything with the word "Supreme" on it, unless it was by Powell Peralta.  If it was raining and they offered me a Supreme raincoat I would probably think about it so long I would already be soaked so it wouldn't matter.

I was gonna cool guy the thread but I see you’ve got it covered

I was basically paraphrasing Bob Heussler.

Mini juice wheels are glorious. Doth ye have no crust?

[Far from relevant]

I haven't checked to see if anyone said it but first thing that came to mind are those Cariuma shoes.

[Gray Imp Sausage Metal]

Shake junt, palace, Nike SB, any wheels that aren’t spitfire, loophole or sml, plan b, DGK... actually my list should probably be, “companies I don’t mind giving my money to”; that would be a lot easier to narrow down

[rawbertson.]

theres been a lot of awful brands in skateboarding from start til present. its a very long list for me.

Do you even Smellride, bro?

[cherry]

Not only would I never use any of the following brands products

Revive
Braille
Bryte
Pizza

But I wouldn’t even resell it if I got it for free. All that shit deserves to be burned back to hell

YES
after i had a board stolen one time a friend lent me some trucks and wheels (bones spf). I pulled up to the spot with a slightly used deck, set up his bits, rolled about five metres across some slightly rough asphalt and felt like I was going to throw up. Those wheels feel like they're made from the same plastic as toothbrush handles

Plastic tooth brush handles is a perfect comparison. That being said OJ Elite 101s are even less appealing to me.

Lol'd hard with this one, thank you

[Mesteezo]

When they threw out a deck, the kid who caught it looked like the little feral kid from "Mad Max: The Road Warrior" with the boomerang or, like, the kid from "The Lost Boys" or some shit, just some short kid, with ratty, uneven long-hair, wearing a jean jacket vest with a bunch of pins and patches on it.

Sounds like Rufio from Hook

[mareo]

Wouldn't touch anything Thrasher branded

[nickpaolucci]

Lakai Telfords or anything by Rip’n’Dip

skating a board i got for free now. it fucking sucks but it was free. 

[eranka]

i once won a 'most kickflips in a row' Element competition and got a hat,deck and pair of shoes.
I gave the hat to a kid straight away and he was really stoked, sold the deck for cheap to another kid and had the shoes for like a year until i told some kid i would give them to him, i came the next day and he wasnt at the park so i left them in the bushes near by and told him where to find them, when he came they werent there. so i think i can safely say i would not use Element gear even if it was given to me, and i once got a free pair of DC Pure in gold/cracked brown and skated it so my bar is pretty low.

Same with trucks.  Who cares at this point.

What about you?

[close]

So you would think twice about a jacket with a word on it before batting an eye at a piece of equipment that actually affects your skating? interesting.

Yeah I think a lot of people would.

I’d say it sounds like it was me but I’ve never caught a board in a product toss lol

[Mantracker]

I think it really comes down to the graphic for me

All decks come from a few woodshops so at least you can support those guys or think of it that way

Id sand off graphics from DGK, Blind, most Almost graphics, Element, Rip N Dip, etc but still skate the decks

I just wouldn't touch companies that press their own boards (does Rip N Dip fall into this category?) or just have way too much of a kook image like BRYT, Revive, Braille like everyone else has said

I can get down with kid focused companies for kids, but not ones that their aim is to profit off of you longterm and keep you away from the "traditional' skate industry as you grow out of childhood

now i’m wondering what an AH air freshener smells like

Old kneepads soaked in bongwater.

[Battery Aziz]

Anything Dwindle

Graphic griptape

Diecuts in griptape

Vlogger brands

I cant stand free product tosses. Id rather pay $200 for a deck that im psyched on from a company I love than struggle with assholes or run thru a mud maze for a free (warped) board.

Anyway, imagine someone rolling up on you with free, fresh 2021 Tensors Trucks and they are hoping you're excited

[manysnakes]

A Gator deck

[Skateboard Shuffle]

Weed socks

[Billy Bitchcakes]

Whenever we've organised a comp and contacted Vans to try and get some prizes, they've always sent us a box of dogshit Vans merch. Lanyards, coin pouches, sweat bands etc. We can't give that shit away. Had the chance to bag it for myself so many times but had no desire.

If you are old enough to post on Slap, you're too old for a product toss
