Style lord Twuan is ready for a comeback part
« on: May 18, 2023, 11:51:30 PM »
If you follow Antwuan on instagram you know how well he’s skating. Anyone know if he’s filming in the street? Who’s gonna edit this thing? Is Straye or FTP or whoever the hell he’s sponsored by going to do Antwuan footage justice? They should just give the footage to Reynolds/Dollin for a part in Baker Has a Deathwish 2.

I know nothing about FTP but if they choose a great song and give us a banger of a part then they can have him. An Antwuan comeback is too legendary to be mishandled is all.

its street wear company, dude makes limited runs when he feels like.

This rapp duo $uicideBoy$ reps it super hard.

it stands for fuck the population.

dude who runs it interned for HUF and knew the K.Huf personally.

sort of carrying on a traditional street wear modus operandi.

FTP is not a skateboard company.

As much as i would love to see him back on baker, i dont get the impression thats really an option.

Prod should scoop his ass up for primitive or maybe Stevie for DGK.

Honestly, he would probably be able to shine a bit more on DGK.

So much talent on primitive already, and theyre also a bit more clean cut than Twuan.

Either way, a huge comeback part from him would make my fucking decade.

Love that dude.

Maybe Sk8 mafia?

I have a feeling him and Baker/Deathwish aren’t good for each other.

DGK doesn’t deserve him.  Besides, nobody can shine in Monty Clifton’s shadow.

Primitive needs to start a sister company or just sponsor the entire industry already.

I want him on a cool board co and getting paid so Dwindle/Tum Yeto are out.

Not hesh enough for DLX/Blackbox, too hesh for Crail.  Palace and sobriety is a no go.  Polar, Sour and Quasi are too euro, white, and or fashionable.

Skates too much for FA… not crusty enough for Hockey.

I honestly don’t think there’s a single board brand that would suit him.

I really wanna meet Twaun. I usually don't care about the status of a skater.

He's such a legend. Skating is lucky to have him.

According to him he’s working on a part right now. Posted about it two days ago.

Not a skateboard company but they make decks and and have riders. Hmmm

I know, I know HUF is the same way…

DGK is one of the coolest companies out they just have the worst fucking graphics in the game

Twuan would be amazing on DGK, honestly the best fit for him

why do all these antwuan threads devolve into what board brand he should ride for, FTP has supported him for a while and i think he's happy there, doesn't seem like he's actively trying to jump ship. i'm sure he gets paid more with FTP than he would if he went back to baker.

because most people on SLAP dont think of FTP as a legit board company

my only concern is how he's edited and the camera they film with, the sponsor is just window dressing. hopefully they don't fuck it up

I honestly doubt FTP is paying anybody to ride their boards. Zac definitely knows what he’s doing with that brand. That said, Antwuan deserves the “welcome home” treatment more than TK ever did.

If he’s done going to jail and can manage to just smoke weed and not fight cops at spots he could have a better comeback than Guy. Can’t forget that dude dipped for 8 years to smoke crack, then put his lakai part ledge dance videogame part.

Not hesh enough for DLX/Blackbox, too hesh for Crail.

I don't know that I see all of DLX as super hesh-I could see him on DLX as a sort of redemption arc sort of thing, Thiebaud has a big heart.

I don't think any of DLX brands really fit Antwuan's aesthetic

I'm sure he's done with Baker and I don't blame him, but if Baker and Twuan dropped a new deck tomorrow it'd be Baker's best selling board in a long time.

Wow, been off social media awhile and had no idea this dude was skating at such a high level again. Awesome to see. I don't even care about a "part" - just digging his phone clips.

Does Real have an aesthetic outside of the people who skate from them are generally very good? Krooked and Anti-Hero clearly do though.

I think if he's serious about putting out another street part or two, he would fit Chocolate. Chocolate's foundation was pretty much inner-city minorities skating LA and SF outside of Mike York and it's always been a brand with skaters with amazing style (Gino, Keenan, Scott Johnston, MJ, Kenny Anderson, Gabriel, etc) more than being overly tech outside of MJ. Only ways he doesn't fit the old school Chocolate vibe is he used to go pretty big and skates rails, but Chocolate has put on those types of riders since they put Eldy on in 03.

While Real sort of has a no bullshit no image just straight up talent kind of vibe, I could easily see him on there.

I guess when your brand image is "anyone who is good", its pretty easy to fit in.

But an edit with Twaun, Ishod, Chima, Patrick Praman, and like, Christian Henry would be fire

I still don't see what the fuss is with this guy, at least in terms of his style. From what I remember his arms just hung by his sides the whole time which looked weird to me.
