Wheres the wade board @? it would make more sense for the board sales..

[picklesickshuv-it]

lenny is pretty cool, he says whats up to all the little kids, and he funny as hell.  yea he seems a little education-challenged but there are worse pros out there, way worse.  kf nose manny nollie inward heel out is damn legit, and i know hes been filming recently so.........just chill

To everyone hating on lenny rivas please shut the fuck up, he is good as fuck, not applesauce or koston good but who is. I can see why he does not appeal to alot of people on the message board because he is a thugged out fool from national city but I dont think they are trying to appeal to everyone, in the crossfire interview stevie did state  pretty clearly that the company tries to reach the ghetto youth.

your a fucking idiot.  he is just a mexican who wants to write graffitti and listen to rap music. and DGK please stop the bullshit. there is plenty of kids accross the world who are "dgk" and fucking sick. they have a team of clean cut talent. nothing raw or edgy. dudes on blind or fucking black label have more edge and flare than 85% of the dgk team

Why am I a idiot? I have met him a few times and he was not cocky to me and I am  good friends with people at street machine the shop he was on before DGK so when I say he is thugged out and from national city just leave it at that. I am not comin the board trying to make anyone like him or prove his hood status, but when you say he sucks because he says holla atcha boy and the fact that you use raw, edgy and flair to talk about skateboarding makes you sound like the fucking idiot.

Hyped for Wade! Maybe now that he's pro the mags will figure out how to spell his fucking name.

It's weird that people can go pro without getting a lot of coverage or busting their ass, but depending on the person I don't really care. Most people only bust their ass until they go pro anyway, then they chill out

The debate over Lenny cropped up on here a bit ago, when that Kayo clip first surfaced on YouTube. I was surprised at how many people attacked Lenny because of his slang. Personally, I thought that clip was fucking awesome: "It's the Jump Off."

Henry's right; a lot of people on here seem to push for uniformity in skateboarding, kinda like an attempt to rid skateboarding of diversity. Kinda like turning it into a Gap commercial or some shit - just the shit that's middle of the road, everything that is widely accepted; nothing shocking.

As a pro, I think Lenny probably doesn't give a shit what people cry about on message boards, and if no one buys his board in the Midwest, he probably doesn't give a shit about that, either. There are plenty of other companies for peopke in the Midwest to support (although, I think there are a lot of thugged-out white dudes in the Midwest who like the DGK brand).

I say go Lenny, and you guys gotta find some shit to really get depressed about.

Those marks on the ears of that dog remind of the picture of that dog that was all fucked up from dog fighting in the Whatever section. Remember all those tubes hanging out of that dogs face? Well, I showed it to my girlfriend, who is a vet, and she said those are drains to get the fluid out. They were keeping that dog alive!! She had me look closer, and showed me the stiches, and told me that dog had already been operated on!

Have you heard anyone hate on any other DGK members in this post?  NO! So obviously were not trying to rid skateboarding of Diversity.  Lenny Rivas is just an idiot and shouldn't be pro.

Maybe you lurk a lot, I don't know, but if you hang out here long enough, I think you'll find people on here have pretty similar opinions on what skateboarding "should be".

Nobody can justify the fact that he hasnt paid due's yet still has a board. Him turning pro is a marketing tool...It is what it is...Dudes REALLY good though

[flipbacklipshuv]

ummmmmm.. danny castillo paid dues.. but does he deserve a board.. HELL NO

[H8R]

ummmmmm.. danny castillo paid dues.. but does he deserve a board.. HELL NO

yeah he paid his dues but daniel has said on several occassions that he didn't want to be pro. 
also, daniel was skating when you were still shitting in your diapers, give him his respect.
 
you fall right into the "Talking about skateboarding with people that don't skate, disappreesh" thread. 
go ask someone to do a 900 mctwist to crook stall revert or something.     

[what the]

confirmed by wade him self he is also getting a board,that's my dog

whats does antwan dixon and lewis marnells skills have anything to do with lenny rivas get a pro board? 
why give examples that have nothing to do with nothing...bush sucks as president therefore i should be pro.  i ate rice and beans for lunch, why ain't someone sucking my cock?  i wore my jockstrap to work, i should win the lotto! 

according to you, if someones better than lenny rivas, they should have a pro board?
you know, just because people think someone deserves something, doesn't mean they get it. 
maybe in fantasyland but this is reality tattoo, get a grip.     



anything for you MS.

no you fucking idiot.. i think im just gonna go a kickflip 1080 off my local 5 stair

[jorelskate]

I'm not gonna buy a Lenny Rivas board, or a DGK for that matter.  But that is because i buy blanks. 

[h@rry_t3H_pImP]

The only thing I find odd about this is that there wasn't the obligatory media blitz before the announcement...usually dudes'll get like 10 ads before the press release Otherwise, congrats to Wade and Lenny
