Toy will never suck, but anyone remember when everyone left and it was just Ed and Austin Stephens so Ed had to turn Austin pro? When that happened I got scared Toy would go under or start sucking, but nothing can keep Ed down thankfully.

I will add 411 to the list.

they dont suck now but they were way better with DAHER and FOWLER and SHIPMAN (when he actually skated professionally, no h8) and FRAZIER (yes i watched fraziers parts)

im not into a lot of their team now. clint, some of those ams, john lupfer, im not into any of those dudes. granted, they have supa, olly, benny, and rEnAuD (at least i believe he still is supported by them). i just think if a full stereo video was released, id find myself skipping several parts, whereas i ALWAYS watch tincan and a visual sound all the way through

man, some of you guys are crazy. chocolate has some of the best, if not the best skateboard graphics in the industry right now. really classic stuff. while companies like workshop took the hit in that area, chocolate still remains on top!

Bootleg screamed skateboarding for the normal guy. No gimmicks no nothing. Someone bring it back.

Zoo York is still a great company, can someone give me a reason why not? Because Ecko owns thier clothing line?

I was watching Entourage and noticed that Turtle had some of that shit on.

IDAREYOU · « **Reply #24 on:** April 13, 2009, 04:43:42 PM »

well 411 is unnecessary now. it was popular because the internet wasn't around and it was the best way to see what everyone in skateboarding was doing every month. Now all you have to do is hop on to their home page and check it out without waiting for the mailman.
