Just tagged them on his story so I assume he’s somewhat on?

brilliant! best part of the year so far easily. I was saying Yooo after the ender then realized the dudes behind the camera were saying it the exact same way. That slappy crook nollie back heel made the scope clear early and I liked how Sayles's camera zoomed past Hero on the storefront before that bank to wallride flip. I watched, texted group chat, rewatched, posted here, going to third watch then get down to work.

Jerry absolutely blowing it I'm sorry to say. what's the holdup? too many people on the team? no disrespect, i like their skating just fine but putting that kid Gabbe or Zack fully on over Matt is so perplexing.

ender was really something. slappy back nosegrind nollie back heel stood out too. front blunt impossible to fakie (540 impossible?) was really cool as well. Matt always delivers. ever since One in a Million he's been getting disrespected by the skate industry, it's insane that he's never really broken through and gotten properly hooked up. just really feels like there should be a spot for him somewhere. looks good in Cons too, they should give him the bump as well.

I love matt but it's not perplexing. Sci Fi is going with the small curated team. By definition, those he already put on before Matt has a say in who gets on. I saw Matt via stories met up with them last year. The fact that he wasnt in the vid means that didn't go well. Simple as that. I get that we want people to get on who are good but that isn't how it works with small, intimate teams.

I criticize Baker for losing that family feel and instead going with people in different scenes and parts of the world. I can't feel that way and still not get why Matt didn't make the cut.

maybe he doesnt want to be fully on
maybe he watched a vlogman4000 blog and decided he prefers to stay in his bubble
could all be

I’d love to see Matt on a good company that will showcase his tech skills.

Gifted hater said on a stream around the time of the video release that Matt wasn't on and would not be getting on. Seemed to imply that it was a no from some of the other riders on the team.

This part would’ve been 3rd best part in the Sci Fi video after Glick and Jerry’s clips

His skating is like a better version of Joa so I guess that could be a conflict of interest

Maybe the team didn't jive with him?? dude's been flow for brands for well over a decade at this point and no one has put him on except maybe 5boro...?

he's a great skater, but he is the finished product, I think sci-fi needs to move away from this typer of skater and focus on younger talent, that kid they posting in their stories rips and seems to be skating with the team - @haesungjang_

yea ryan lay had the best part imo then glick then jerry

it's literally never a mystery why someone isn't on any company - didn't vibe with the rest of the team or no money

super fun part to watch though love watching his footage and i don't even particularly like manual skating that much

There was some crazy stuff in there, but the 20 and under demographic might not appreciate it because most of it was low impact.

If he skated bigger shit, he would be fully hooked up. However, I can’t imagine bailing on a lot of those tricks from bigger drops without getting seriously hurt.

This guy is great. Could see him on Theories. Him and Nyle Lovett would pair nicely together. Drop skating is passé. LoFi is where it’s at…
