Blake Carpenter off Toy Machine

[Theme For A Jackal]

Some of these predictions are bonkers. Only thing that makes sense to me is a move for more pay and the only options I see for that are April, Primitive and (maybe) Skate Mental.

I've checked both disorder's and Blake's Instagram and nothing. So again...what do you base this on?

[HORSES]

Weird 10 years on Toy Machine. Got on when they were inactive, and not putting out any video content. Had one video part for them which was more or less footage not used for Trust Fall. Other than that...?

Disorder makes perfect sense. Looks like they are dropping a video soon, so we'll see.

Some people know other people and hear about things.  Not everything is on social media.  Seems like people are pretty confident they have the scoop so seems reasonable to trust em for now, no?

Ant Travis connection between Nyjah and Blake makes this seem like a solid pairing

Damn. I guess i just didn't want it to be true cause now i won't buy his board

[Jud Nestorkins]

OP OFF OF

[jsettle]

Disorder sounded crazy in the first few posts on this thread and the more i see it, it doesnt seem too far fetched. He was on AYC with nyjah and went on trips with him and both on nike together. Could be paying wayyy more than toy machine.

[goodatmeth]

Somehow I still can't imagine disorder becoming a thing at all. Have you guys seen disorder decks in real life?

Nyjah’s appeal is far greater to non-skaters, bet he sells out of product immediately upon release, mainly direct to consumer, farming website sales from his instagram

Very little of that product ever reaches a park or the streets

Exactly. It’s akin to Bam but on a smaller level. His appeal, contest fame and his popularity make him known to kids who are just starting and/or those who don’t really skate.

It’s like the kids buying Braille boards

Makes my top five.  This dude rips.   Good style.  Switch gawd. 

Sci fi?

I would hope that jerry doesn’t put on a flat earther

I dunno man, I think Jamie Foy or Mike Pulizzi would be a good fit for Sci Fi.

[Murge]

disorder isn’t much worse than toy at this point lol.

Disorder is quite a bit worse than toy.

Toy has a legacy/history and a core team that despite toy having their fall from grace and in a lull weird spot their team riders are respected. I mean like toy or not no one is talking shit and calling dudes on that team cringy or kooky. Slap gave provost shit that’s it.

Disorder has a a guy that may have raped someone and little kids like.

[huggs]

seems like toy doing a mini reset, focusing on some younger talent/new additions. if they aren't pulling in a ton of cash it makes sense to let two older guys go

disorder tho, yikes. heavy influencer vibes

and ya:

Disorder is quite a bit worse than toy.

[50mm]

I didn't like this dude from how he came off on KOTR way back when, but goddamn a week ago a clip popped up in my ig feed and I thought, "That boy sure can skate".

[Lessfillingtastegreat]

My point of view is this. Why the fuck care what someone’s personal belief is specific to ridiculous shit like flat earth? Or political shit too.  If I like their skating then I like their skating. I would never take any political or scientific advice from a skater of any level.

Now, with that being said, yea I draw the line on some of their behavior.  I won’t be buying a gator board anytime soon. Before you call me a right wing nut job know I’ve never ever supported the right.  I do agree ya’ll a bunch of snowflake pussies tho.  I’m going back to the trans thread where things are getting real with that poser girl talking to Piers Morgan or Tucker.

This place gets so fired up about stupid shit.  This guy is a flat earther so I can’t back it.   Ok the dude is an idiot BUT he rips.   I back his skating.  Not his personal position on shit.

Dude is from Florida.  Thats all you should need to know to form some opinions about him.



Chances are if you knew more shit about the people you do support you’d likely find something you didn’t like.    Rant end.

[LostBearings]

Dude has always ripped, repped toy really well. Would be pretty bummed if he rode for disorder as it seems there are plenty of other board company's he could fit on.

His Dekline part really stood out to me.   Didn’t he switch 360 flip 5-0 a rail?

I'm talking specifically his tenure on Toy Machine. But also that might just go hand in hand with Toy Machine being in a sort of skateboarding wilderness for a fair chunk of his time on there. The Dekline part is a very good technical skateboard part, but to me it's just sort of got this washed Ride Channel (Raglans, Singlets, cheap sunglasses) feel to it, where nothing from that time period has aged well.

Will be on Skate Mental in 6-8 weeks time.

For 6-8 weeks time
