He deserves better

Your Cousin Marvin · « **Reply #2 on:** March 25, 2022, 01:55:55 PM »

did he quit on his own or did he get Layed off?

goldfishboot · « **Reply #3 on:** March 25, 2022, 01:59:15 PM »

could unironically see him on Krooked

camel filters · « **Reply #4 on:** March 25, 2022, 01:59:26 PM »

Maybe well get footage of him without the awkward looking boards. No shade to shaped boards but when people who skate traditionally like ryan skate them, it's just distracting and makes me wish they would just have a popsicle.

This dude rips. I’m ok with the shaped board. I think it’s pretty cool. I’ve never seen anyone tear up Tempe skate park like Mr Lay. The pop and trick selection is superb. Skates fast.

Companies that could better reveal his talents:

Anti Hero
Girl
WKND

Kind of ironic since Welcome just started making popsicle (or pretty close to) shapes recently

Maybe something’s going down over there, seems like things are changing up

I imagine he’s just stepping away from pro skating because frankly it seems like he’s capable of doing better things with his life, but it would be sick to see him on a company that’s actually cool.

I love his skating. And I like shaped boards, but his style calls for a traditional board to me. No way to explain it further haha.

Not sure what the circumstances of his departure were but I'm glad to see him of. Could see him on Krooked, WKND, or something quirky like that. Such a great skater and dude with all the charity stuff he does but he's deserved some better sponsors for awhile now. Imagine riding for Krux.

He's still continuing to be a pro skater. I think Slap is going to be happy with his new board sponsor when it eventually gets announced/leaked (whichever comes first). Definitely not the brand I would have guessed, but it's a dope fit.

I hope he’s coming home…

This is good news. I selfishly want to see him keep skating and not drift away into running a nonprofit or going into academia or something, even though I think he could easily do either of those things and be very successful

I don't know why but I'm gonna put my money on limosine. Imagine some krux trucks on a limo deck lol

Always thought DGK was a better fit for him

I'm not going to be the one that ends up confirming or denying any guesses in here. A group of my friends recently ran into him and the crew skating together and one of them asked to confirm. I'll just say that it's not Darkstar. Sorry Darkstar fans...

HugeBodBoyle · « **Reply #20 on:** March 25, 2022, 03:14:07 PM »

Dude has all the makings of an Uma Landsleds rider, imo.

ninformatic · « **Reply #21 on:** March 25, 2022, 03:18:05 PM »

he’s following limosine on instagram

Lessfillingtastegreat · « **Reply #22 on:** March 25, 2022, 03:37:05 PM »

Sorry guys, confirmed he’s on bryte and cariuma. Really switching it up. He stayed on Krux because they are simply the best.

Manny Santiago for SOTY.

Imagine riding for krux. Could see him on ace. Ryan is the dopest, fit god.

This brand is huge in AZ. Seems like every other board is a welcome board. I’ve had one in the quiver for when I feel special. It was solid.
