My thoughts are: he's off Asics already? and, why did he not stand up to give Tony a hug?

I think he’s one of the most impressive skaters out right now (and that’s saying a lot). From that lens, feels like he deserves better than Birdhouse, not to mention a pro board reveal midday at his new boss’ shitty chicken restaurant (idk if it’s shitty to be fair). That being said, I don’t know the whole of it. If he’s a good human off the board and he’s happy, I’m happy for him.

he skates good but also - What are the mechanics of the announcement here... was he am for them already?  Or was he just having a burger and tony's like "surprise bitch, pro", against his will.

 Because the alternative is, he already knew about this and it's no surprise and just an ad for the burger spot.

That’s one of the worst graphic of all time. I would also be speechless.

How is birdhouse funding these pros? The pro team is like 10 people.

That being said. Good for them securing that next generation.

One of the most gnarly (and underrated imo) skaters out there. Glad he found a home.

Was sure he was going to land on Deathwish, but Birdhouse is kind of left field. I back it!

I think he deserves better than birdhouse. But atleast he’s on something. I thought he would end up on baker/deathwish or even krooked.

But maybe birdhouse is cultivating a team that is more active. Roman and Greyson seem to drop edits often. Aside from jaws and Lizzie and dloy idk who else is on birdhouse but those 3 don’t drop a lot of footy although that d loy part was pretty good and left me wanting him to drop edits more often

He is one of my current favorites. Birdhouse is odd but at least he’s getting paid.

Thought it was an odd fit to see. Wasn't he the one that dropped in off that parking garage into that sketchy alleyway?

Here's hoping for a birdhouse video by early next year. A Passing of the torch, an end of the saturdays era. The greatest era of the brand (no notes, no arguments) One last swansong of Jaws being Jaws before, the final Hawk part.

Being a pro for Birdhouse must be a pretty stable place to be so good for Roman. I hoped he would’ve landed on something more interesting but maybe Birdhouse is seriously trying to steer the brand into the right track.
Now they need a filmmaker who actually has a vision and not just rely on Chris Gregson and single parts on Thrasher. Only if backyard vertramps still existed.

He was on a Krooked trip or two but that’s about it I think.

Fuck yeah. OC MD.
Birdhouse has a whacky direction these days but I fuck with the graphic because he’s in a hoodie with a crab on it and as a dude from MD I must like anything with a crab on it.

If the before and after still has David Loy on your team, you did not rebrand anything.

I’m assuming you’re joking. The greatest era of the brand is the one documented in The End

Op, you ok man? Being real here, you doin alright?

agreed The End had the greatest era of riders but we still should acknowledge that The Beginning had the second best. Steve Nesser, Figgy, Riley Hawk, Jon Dickson, Matt Ball and even young D Loy.

I’m not a huge Roman fan and dont understand why he would wanna ride for this company but Birdhouse has a chance to make a comeback and become somewhat relevant again.

They just need to round up a well rounded bunch of up and comers whos names are already making and buzz and for the love of god get grandpa up out of every video and ad. put that man in a nursing home but get passwords to all the financials.

Birdhouse has that Braun guy from darkroom on the team too.  Had a bunch of crazy tricks in his recent Thrasher interview

That was awkward. 3 people clapped and one guy said “Yeah Roman”. Tony said “It’s an honor, a pleasure” and then just nothing.

I don’t think too much about the pro board surprise as it’s really only been a thing for about a decade, but if you’re gonna do it, maybe put a little thought and effort into it? Roman didn’t even seem to care. Go watch WKND turn Nikolai pro. That’s the bar. It was actually memorable.
