I would be really stoked if Westgate and Suski got back on 5boro. I just couldn't see them fitting on any other team, seeing as how they got their start with it, I wouldn't be surprised if they just pulled an Arto and got back with the sponsors that put their names in the spotlight in the first place.

Chaz is one trophy toss away from Seaholmism.

I laughed. Hard. To myself.

You guys are stupid. Zered said in a recent ESPN interview that they're cutting everyone BUT westgate and Chaz

If you have ever had the pleasure of checking out Cheri or Swank magazine you're likely familiar with the insanely close zoom-in, 3-page fold outs that they have. I just want to let you know that you are an even bigger cunt than any of those.

You sir take slap waaay too seriously. I feel honoured to have made you so upset that you took 3 minutes out of your day to insult me over the internet. I hope you have a great sleep tonight, you sound like somebody who could use a good rest!

Templeton just posted a picture of Heath and Westgate on instagram. Ed and Westgate hanging out? We all know where this is going!

I sure hope so but it could also "just" be a Emerica thing

You think? I mean they are all on the same team, but that seems highly unlikely.
Best to assume he's on Toy Machine. Maybe Heath too!

Hahaha! It's not like Emerica is on tour RIGHT NOW, or anything either.

Westgate has been talking to the guys at Toy Machine over the past few months... I wouldn't be surprised if it happened.

If Westgate does ends up like everyone else and not getting his contract renewed, I can't really see him going anywhere but Toy. Baker is the worst option. Why would anyone want Brandon Westgate to ride for Baker?

Real would be sick but they've got like a 14 person team right now.

The thought of Westgate having a welcome part with Ed's little drawings and animation all over it makes me very, very happy.

natenola forever · « **Reply #98 on:** June 15, 2012, 09:03:06 AM »

He is on an Emerica tour right now and definately running Zoo York gear and Zoo York boards

Laban Fetus · « **Reply #99 on:** June 15, 2012, 10:42:29 AM »

Westgate is like the original Toy Machine member from the 90's who never had a part in Welcome To Hell. I think it's safe to say he's an "east coast powerhouse"

ice nine · « **Reply #100 on:** June 15, 2012, 10:52:38 AM »

I think john fitzgerald would fit toy better, but if either got on I'd be psyched.

There was a Zered zoo york commercial before Pete Eldridge's Firing Line on Thrasher today.

brianwilson · « **Reply #102 on:** June 16, 2012, 07:48:49 PM »

Westgate on workshop floats my boat the most.

And, no fuck he is still using zoo york boards right now.

I am a washed up, slightly overweight 30 something from Australia. I have nothing to do with Zoo York but I thought I'd put this up so everyone can unbunch their pruurrddy pink panties.
P.S. Chaz Ortiz is a goon and apparently Forrest Kirby is still living the dream? Who knew.

Seeing Chaz Ortiz's face really makes me angry. I hope Zared ends up on a good home, dude is an absolute work horse. I'd like to see him on Real.

So, Kevin Tierney is still on the team but Zered and Eli aren't? What in god's name is wrong with this company.

fuck im bummed about eli, hopefully he will get on something soon

That isn't a press release, that letter has to be for their reps and distributers. New management is making moves, but they want everyone to be reassured that things aren't really changing and that everything is going to be alright, which will be true until things actually do change and people get burnt.

Quote from: iwshilvdnfinland on June 17, 2012, 07:08:11 PM

hey we're just gonna kick off the most zoo york motherfuckers that ever rode for us

Typical move in business when there is a change at the top. Often, its those who have put the most in who get burnt first. In this case they are changing the face of the brand. 'Steeze' will be perfect for an integrated marketing and sales partnerships with Walmart, Target, and KMart, allowing them to extend their brand messages and bring in new customers. Companies are looking for ways to create long term customers out of Generation Y. Expekt Moar.

doomstation55 · « **Reply #113 on:** June 17, 2012, 10:40:00 PM »

I really liked his part in the newest zoo video and respect him as a skater, but how do they kick off eli and zered before ron deily? I can kinda see zered seeing as he has been on for awhile and probably is being paid a lot, but eli is a relatively new pro and can't be making the big bucks right?
Either way, Zoo York is fuckin up. Getting rid of 2 of your 3 best skaters and dudes that represent the brand really well to boot, silly.

i'm always glad to see skaters getting checks, but Ecko skateboards will always be terrible.

I can picture Eli on choco.

Getting rid of Durrant for Eli is perfect! Good for him if he is on.
