Fixed, Casey Rigney deserved better

Status & INC because they had great decks (at pricepoint ranges) and a great team. First wheels were DNA, I remember they tried going the cartoony route like World Industries and Blind but it never caught on.

glad people have been digging this thread.

I used to do one called put your money where your mouth is every april and it was about supporting small brands.

I was thinking about this topic in part because I was thinking about what brands deserve our money.

there's a few brands that have popped up a lot that im surprised by, I hope people are buying them!

personally would love:

Heroin
Scram
Blast
Black Label
Evisen
Anti Hero
Krooked
There
Tired
Meltdown (local brand)

half of those my local sells and go pretty good. only Evisen, Scram, Blast and Black Label they dont carry. i think Black label and especially Evisen can do well here. met some Blast and Scram fanatics too but not that much so those arn't that realistic.

probably more logical to switch those two for Polar and Hockey but not into those myself.
