this is what you get when you start loving haters!

He’d really love this thread then, everyone mad at a gesture to a friend. We all know it’s an appreciation thing, not because they truly think he’s a pro.

I am surprised DGK didn’t do this before since Stevie and him are cool

[Resident Jeff]

Pretty sure FA have made boards for Cat Powers.
Stoked she got the bump up to pro

[figureitout]

Disgusting just like Torey Pudwill and his brand. Wack all around, it would actually be rad if Wayne turned it down, but his ego is farrrrrr too big.

[TwisT]

God, a lot of you really be acting like you can’t just you can’t call up any wood shop and print literally anything you want on a board. Like it’s some fucking crime

Chloe Sevigny pro AF for FA too. Which SLAP PAL should go pro?

Y’all so corny hating on this man. Guys an absolute legend and genuinely loves skating.

That’s Tory’s favourite rapper he’s probably so hyped to put him on

People are forgetting the who drew that Zoltan Metalia board.

brian pushead schroeder.

We're talking about a legend in skating a legend in Ponk.

I can see why Wayne got a boat. That guy grew skating and definitely deserves it.

If skating was about being good then I would have been on by the time I was 12. It's about being ala mode.  Wayne is popular still rn. Probably not going to last so now is the time.
The industry is about growing the art. Who ever gets it done gets a board.

Fun fact. I'm a DJ. A bad one but the best mix I've ever made was a mash up.

Lil Wayne a mili. One of the greatest hip hop tracks of all time. Plus the intro to Helmet's Unsung.

Try it if you know how to beat match.

A mili a mili mili part plus the guitar build up. So good

If I lived near Wayne I would be bugging him constantly to sing for my band. With a catch tho. He must wear the anonymous mincer ski mask.

There's no fame allowed here. Has to be pure soul and no hangers on. We're talking about genre redefining art not pop mining bullshit with fake fans following us because we got the famous singer.

That voice needs to be involved in crust Ponk / industrial/ power violence...

I guarantee that it would be the most slamming shit since Charles Fucking Bronson youth attack hardcore 97

Looks like he has a pro model for another brand as well.

[signtime]

He's been snowboarding in the park with Drake since like 2010 too. Gotta respect the consistency and dedication to do the sport for so long.

I can’t believe they wasted this absolute hammer of a song on the am section

I’m pretty sure he still has a Prince-level drug regimen and he’s bare minimum smoking a half oz a day which makes his clips even more impressive

Edit: there are so many insane classic prime Wayne lines in this song I can’t even type them all out, No Other was always my favorite Wayne verse but this was probably the best song he ever made

Second edit: was furby wearing under armor socks at 1:32

Robbie Mckinlay and Rob Pluhowski punching the sky rn.

Gay. Duh. As long as the first deck is in FA style and of his avatar.

Being pro means nothing nowadays

@OG Goon, I get the whole 'pro definition is watered down' thing. But I would say don't take everything at face value. You're in the know so it's only really watered down if u reject the nuance... There's pro. Then there's "pro"; but those apostrophes are implied, so they're silent/invisible, so it's up to us to decipher.
Similarly, to the avg person, a Ben 10 setup from Walmart is a real skateboard. It's a wooden toy, it's physically tangible, and rolls on 4 wheels it is as real as can be. Little Timmy and his parents will not know it's "fake" until he works up the courage to approach Sid and the other sk8rats at the end of the culdesac, where they will eventually deliver the heartbreaking news... Ok, maybe that's a lil too anecdotal but basically;
Real recognize real. Etc, etc.

Lil Wayne is a legend, he actually skates, and the class photo has been his signature for a while. This kind of makes to put him on some boards. If someone tries out skateboarding because they got a Lil Wayne board at least it's gonna b a quality product and not some basura from the toy store. 

Promotional Skateboard AF

Not Professional Skateboarder AF

Exactly!

I heard "Lil Wayne is now a pro sk8r" from some headline at of another article. One of those footer sections that sell ad space, n it's a mix of links to legit articles and links to spam/snake oil bs, so did my own search to verify [and to increase the site bounce rate + they don't get a conversion from my click, cuz these non-QC ass footers are annoying af]. Anyway I saw the headline on several news outlets... so great biz move on Thank You's part.

Is Lil Kim also Pro AF bc Supreme put her name n face on some boards? Or Pillsbury doughboi ?

Lil Wayne/Thank U thing is conceptually more of a collab, but how watered down is that word at this point?
Or maybe this is more like a guest pro model? Those seem to b more random n less based on the traditional standards of what it takes to get a pro model.

Idk let's keep an eye on that team page tho!

You know being pro is just a marketing gimmick right?  There’s no more weight to it than cutting someone in on board sales who has enough pull to sell boards.

Nice gesture and all but did they have to 100% blatantly rip off the whole FA youth photo thing?

To be fair Lil Wayne kind of popularized that with his Carter 3 album. Not saying he was first to do it but that was one of his most successful albums and memorable covers. So I think it’s more a nod to that than ripping of FA.
