If it is just a temporary thing (which i think it is) its pretty dope of Koston considering he's been a sour douche the past several years (over the internet, at least.)

Supporting a homies brand and helping them make it bigger is cooler then skating a gold board or one with a fucking question mark on it for a year

exactly

Hmmm, well that was rad.

He's still a fairly decent skater.

Better than his damn Chronicles part
in terms of actual tricks and difficulty or whatever, no, definitely not.

i think it would be cool if he stayed on.
he cant skate like he used to (not trying to diss the man, he was just way too fucking good to be able to stay at the level he was at) and it seems like it would be weird for him to start a company with him as one of the main pros if hes on the tail end of his career. the wknd hookup seems natural and is actually pretty sick.

Rolled into the local Active today for shorts, noticed the koston/wknd deck sitting on the counter and was suprised how steep it was/felt; still not buying one ;)

If you click on the link on the wknd site it has a Vimeo of all his parts throughout his career. Logged almost a full hour of footy at a high level that's damn impressive

That being said, and uppercase I might make the Eric look a little better on the logo

Not to derail the conversation, but does anyone think Thrasher's media silence on the issue is odd?  Is it because Transworld broke the news?

And my prediction is that Koston is oin WKND just for the weekend, on monday they post something about it, koston left, then they announce those boards were limited edition, jamie buys all of them and sale on ebay in his garageshit
