[Haveyouseenhim]

Such a good team now!

[rejectpaul]

Of habitat, in rassvet

Rasvett is literally russian version of fa/hockey. Austyn didnt get on fa so its nice alternative for him.

[shannamal]

i wonder if habitat was always aware it was a temporary thing. little boost of interest for them, little stability for him, feels like an even trade off

Is this the equivalent of a former NBA player going to Europe to extend their career?

Don’t fuck with that at all given the state of the world. What do they pay him in? Beets? Isn’t Russian money worthless.

Yeah bro for sure! Everyone in Russia is bad and everything that comes out of it is evil 

[benboardbreaker]

is it a russian company? i thought it was german. but what do I know. haven't payed much attention to the company to be honest.

[AllisonChalmers]

It's a European brand with US distribution started by Russian skaters that probably haven't been back to Russia in a long time.
That's my interpretation at least. Remy, Cambryan and Austyn is a nasty trio omfg.

[Mongo Lloyd]

And before the company repeatedly gets beat up in here for being Russian, didn’t the company denounce Putin at the beginning of their last video?

[Denim Pizza]

Austyn is super loyal

lol american posters denouncing a russian company "given the current state of the world" give me a FUCKING break

[fineslime]

austyn on rassclot would be way more interesting.

[GAY]

The yassification of rassvet.

[pointandclick]

only place ive seen their gear is fashion stores online, no skateshops.
also wasn't deedz supposed to be on?

[JamesFardy]

he'll be on Black Label before all is said and done. oi!

[thehogsniper]

I know they finally ended their association with gosha so I suspect their direction is going to be changing up. I think they've got a lot of potential as a brand, but we'll see how they shape up.

a lot of skate shops carry them, but the brand is distributed by CdG so typically they gear towards fashion stores. price point on their stuff is not skateshop friendly

Yeah, which would be unsafe if they still lived there.

Nik Stain’s footage in Russia for Hockey X had a spooky vibe. Most likely filmed before February’22

You are able to use you brain enough to understand the state of the world is due to the psychopathic ruling elite 1% not the worlds 99% citizens no? I for one am certain a tiny little skateboard company has nothing to do with “the state of the world”. I’d be more worried about  Rassvet’s connection to this Nonce Gosha and his/their connection to the balenciaga scandal if I were you…

Did Toya or Rassvet in general denounce Gosha and that scandal in a meaningful way or in any way for that matter?

Sick team as mentioned with the addition of these two. Stoked Austyn has found a home he is stoked on.

Edit: I see they have parted ways with that sicko mentioned about, now I can be stoked on/for the team/brand.

The only Russian thing in Rassvet is Tolia's (The dude who runs it) passport and a few riders. I think they all left Russia as soon as the war started. The brand we supported from day one by COMME des GARÇONS, so I'd say it's a French brand more than Russian.

[CossRooper]

Austyn's sponsor hopping is so annoying

Pretty sure Tolya moved to Paris. And in the last video RASSVET denounced the war, which is a ballsy move considering the extreme repression in Russia.

And, while there are some serious kooks in the Russian skate scene for sure (I can think of one dude who is making the rounds on state media and doing good Orthodox Christian appearances, despite having a history of well known scandals), many of the dudes who fled Russia when the war began and many of those who are stuck in Russia taking care of relatives or whatever are beyond amazing people.

Most of the Russian skate scene is very different from the Russian gov. Hell, around 2013, Moscow had one of the best scenes in the world, because of all the dudes who were a part of Absurd and Nasvay/Dura. Today, Tolya has done a great job and, in my opinion, has made an absolutely amazing brand. Not to mention Gosha Konyshev (Tolya's former teammate on Absurd who did the Zima video a few years back not the designer Gosha Rub-whatever who had photos/texts with the underage boys) recently released an amazing video part that took years to make out in the middle of nowhere.

Dude it’s literaly in the name ‘commes des garcons’ it’s French for ‘cum of the boys’. If it was Japanese it would be called ‘Gangwa Kawaksaki’ or something.

[Arto!Arto!WakeUp!]

i found his good and evil part a little boring and i don't see the fit with rassvet but it's cool that austyn stephens found a new home.
