Very valid points, I was just assuming they kicked him off for no reason but they never did much for him anyway.

SleepyPeePee · « **Reply #8 on:** January 19, 2009, 10:48:12 PM »

Brinkley wouldn't boot him!
Chances are he quit!

riding*walls · « **Reply #9 on:** January 19, 2009, 10:55:04 PM »

I heard his contract expired and they didn't have the budget to renew it.
Nothing personal but in times like these even if it isn't fat you're cutting, you gotta cut something.
Sadly shecks probably makes 10 times what they paid creager. But he sells a shit ton of shoes and thats what keeps the doors open.
I hope ronnie finds a new home somewhere. Kinda surprised globe hasn't offered him a spot.

Ronnie's shoe probably didn't sell that well. I have never seen them anywhere, not even on ccs.

A dude you never hear anything about, but every time you see something its always amazing. Im sure his part in the new blind video will be amazing.

riding*walls · « **Reply #13 on:** January 19, 2009, 11:27:54 PM »

Yeah it's rad he has been the same guy for as long as I can remember.
No fashion makeovers or changing tricks based on trends.
Creager has always been an innovator , and just doing what he enjoys.
I also think of Kalis the same way. Just good fucking skateboarding and no bullshit.

It might come as a shock to someone but even pro skaters have contracts. When you get on, it doesn't mean you're automatically on that company for life.

sid vicious · « **Reply #15 on:** January 20, 2009, 12:05:22 AM »

etnies should learn from tip's from emerica - keep the team strong and consistant and the brand may take hold to actual skaters not mall kids.

i never understood there ever year or so team shake ups!!

creager is AMAZING.

aojiru · « **Reply #16 on:** January 20, 2009, 12:09:56 AM »

That's too bad even though I probably never would have bought his pro shoes. The eS ones he had looked pretty good even though this one guy I skated with wore them out in a week.

I guess I could support him by getting some Swiss bearings since most of his sponsors are kinda gross.

Hope he gets on a good company and comes out with a good pro shoe this time around. Too many lesser guys out there with shoes out.

its time for a mike carroll power move. i watched his shit in the blind video the other day and got real hyped to go flatground my little heart out. we need more creager and less Furby.

cja105 · « **Reply #18 on:** January 20, 2009, 12:52:00 AM »

I hope he's able to find something new/worthy of his ability, and like the link to the article said "he's fucking Ronnie Creager, ya know".....

In the on-going list of people that deserve to be hooked up Ronnie is definitely on it.

Hastings · « **Reply #21 on:** January 20, 2009, 02:20:14 AM »

I think the shoe is pretty rad, not seen it for sale anywhere though.

You actually look/get CCS still?

Either way Creager is THE BEST.

mipe · « **Reply #23 on:** January 20, 2009, 03:17:52 AM »

Honestly Creager is my all time favourite. Almost bought a fisherman hat just because of him

victor doom · « **Reply #24 on:** January 20, 2009, 04:45:09 AM »

Well since all these companies we thought died are coming back, Creager must be trying to revamp Nadia!

revamped axion team? i wanna see him get on that. would have prefered that lakai bought them back.

Pug Life · « **Reply #27 on:** January 20, 2009, 06:36:04 AM »

Supra is gonna scoop him up so that they can come out with shoes people will actually skate in.

jaweave23 · « **Reply #28 on:** January 20, 2009, 06:43:31 AM »

Creager will be wearing Cons in no time.

beeda weeda · « **Reply #29 on:** January 20, 2009, 07:53:59 AM »

He doesn't care, he's one of the most talented as well as one of the most slept on skaters ever. He has always just let his skateboarding do the talking.
best of luck to him, I doubt he needs it. Creager is the man.
