Is Sci-Fi Fantasy getting bloated??

[Mystical Leader]

It used to be something different (clothing brand) and now they have a team and they keep adding new sponsored people.

yes I am a fan of the brand but do we really need to add new riders? I do not see the value in it. My personal dream would be like a team of five people. After that I think any team will become a bit bloated.

What do you pals think? What is optimal for Jerry Hsu's Sci-Fi Fantasy?

The t-shirts do the opposite of getting bloated after one wash.

Jerry’s got the money, they’re fine.  Just keep buying their reasonably priced high quality clothing and they’ll make it work on those slim margins and cheep toilet paper.

[BALARGUE]

It's growing organically in my opinion. And i think it's great.

If he keeps on picking great people, i'm down

[radcunt]

Paying skaters is great, dont worry about it

[Lhotse’s Pit of Death]

I’ve always seen Sci Fi as Jerry’s personal forum to make a living from his sharing his very personal interests- skating or not. He is big into fashion and photography in addition to skating so anytime he gets excited about a photo for a graphic; a rider he may see on social media etc. he will use Sci Fi to promote that interest equally regardless of whether it is ‘skate’ or ‘fashion’ related.  Other board companies mainly focus on being one thing even if they do sell clothing as well, but I think Sci Fi does a great job of both advertising/sharing Jerry’s personal interests and being lucrative as a business at the same time. If they keep adding riders like Ryan Lay for ex. that fit this aesthetic Im all for it. I think it would only fail if he started forcing riders that didnt fit the aesthetic of the brand and tried to force their fashion products on everyone ala Dill and FA.
-Having said that the blanks for the tees are atrocious and the hats kind of fit weird.

i hate it when legacy pros strike gold and use it as an opportunity to promote interesting skaters!

You should DM Jerry and let him know.

I like Sci fi. I just bought another board, but 40$ beanies and 90$ sweatshirts aren’t reasonable.

You don't see the value in sponsoring skaters?

Maybe I go through boards faster than you but $70 for a board that lasts me a month vs beanies and sweatshirts (even with dubious quality) that'll last a couple years at the very least. Seems like its flipped.

chinese skate mental

[smellsdead]

hope they wallets bloated ayyyyeeeeeeeee




for real though eat a few prunes take a walk and drink water if youre bloated
or take a sip of milk of magnesia if you want to go to the moon

[Shortys Hardware]

well its half as bloated as the Jacuzzi team despite being a company for 6 more years and having actual product

[mj23]

They have like six skaters on the team

Make this post again when they’re even half the size of Real’s team

[backside_frontside]

I think it’s reached critical mass. We need a video with clips from the whole team. I know Ryan had a short part, but it won’t feel like a solidified brand IMO until there is a video with everyone in it. Even if it’s just a short promo type edit. The team is shaping up nice, now do something with it, which I think they are, or at least I hope.

I love sci-fi fantasy and everything jerry hsu.  sci-fi fantasy is still ultra rare, ultra core, and only admired/worn by the illest of skaters.  if that means jerry hsu has to add another rider to the team, then so be it.  they have a long way to go before theyre wearing jerseys with numbers on their back skating around Europe doing demos.  unpopular opinion, I love Kim k and think its awesome her stylist tells her to wear sci-fi fantasy.  its a great win for jerry hsu and will only funnel more cash into his brand which will allow him to bring us more sci-fi fantasy greatness.

The guy at the frame store was wearing a SF hat and I was really hoping it was because he was a buddy of  Jerry’s, but alas, no, just a hat

Arin, Gifted Hater confirmed it's coming

And you mentioned you're working on something now. Is that for Sci-Fi Fantasy?

Yeah, that's the plan. Yeah. My first part was my little YouTuber part. With Sci-Fi, we’re working on something more fullish length. I don't know, maybe 15 or 20 minutes. And with that coming out, I'm not going to be cool if I only have three clips in it. So I need to knuckle down a little bit and get some of that shit popping. I've got some stuff in the bank and got plans to get more

Jerry
Arin
GH
Ryan Lay
Akwasi
Corey Glick
New miniramp fs 540 guy (?)
Matt Militano (?)


Seems like a pretty normal size team for a skate brand to me. Several of these may just be flow riders too. They haven't even broken into double digits.

They have Max Garson on too. I can't even tell you where I know him from but all of a sudden he's popped up in GH, LateNiteStars, and other edits.

this seems relevant.

He was on the original Alien Workshop reboot team in 2014.

[LebowskisRug]

If Matt Militano is on then they have:

Matt
Jerry
Ryan
Corey as pros

Akwasi
Arin
Joa
2 other kids whose name I can't remember as ams

8 total riders seems pretty chill to me. Even if they all went pro it still wouldn't be a huge team.

Man Jerry changed after his net worth went up to 5mil

He was on alien 2.0 and then just kind of disappeared.

I think he's in this

[Underpressureflips]

I thought sci fi was just gonna sell hats and shirts to rich people. Cool to see it evolve to an actual skate team.

[Síota]

How many votes do we need to get Fred Gall on?

[SatanicPanic]

You shouldn’t fat shame them

[PatrickSkateman]

Meanwhile Limosine’s like “hey guys, we’re still here…”

And people won’t talk about them as much until the new line drops next April.
