Violet is looking proper as fuck 8) . They added Troy Gipson to the roster, He is one of the best upcoming skaters. I back this. Can't wait to see the merch.

The layout of their most recent ad in Thrasher is terrible. Is he seriously going to go with a speech bubble and the tagline 'It's Violet!'? Really like the team, but everything else just seems so half-assed. A few months ago Bill posted a story asking if anyone had any experience with laying out of catalogue and to DM him. For someone as connected and well resourced as he is, it's crazy this is what he's coming up.

More board companies named after colors

The team is sick but everything is taking too long to come out, it feels like it built up steam for a while and just stopped

FA got too big so they made hockey. Now hockey is too big they made violet?  Not mad just making sure I have it right. I closely associate stroebeck with FA/supreme so this is an extension of that?

He had to put “NYC kid” on it just to remind people how core NYC he wants to present himself as.

Nope. They always had Hockey as a plan when they started FA. No extension.

Bill just watched Untitled, and decided to start his own company



Also supposedly these boards are Clutch wood.

The ad does a good job of capturing the early 90s astatic it’s going for: period correct video grabs that kinda show a trick sequence, weird color pallet, lofi slapped together shoddiness. It’s a bit heavy-handed of a homage to a certain era that was Bill’s salad days.

I thought it was meant to read like “NYC, kid!” Which is still kind of weird
No fun allowed. Also get your phone out and film this for my insta edit. Also don’t breath too loud. Bitch.
