Going to Dwindle was a mistake so there's no chance I support Zero anymore

It was all downhill after they started Mystery honestly. But you're right nothing can make a bunch of random cross and sword graphics worse other than putting them on sweatshop wood.

[close]


I guess you don't get tired of being clowned on, we all look pretty favorably upon $lave which happened much after, swords are Darkstars bailiwick, and I don't recall many cross graphics after the initial year or so of his conversion which by its nature isn't random.

I guess I was oblivious to the idea if being "clowned on" on the internet by random kids who can't handle people having opinions that are different than theirs.

Like I said, Zero's been terrible for a lot longer than it was ever cool (to me) and I'm not a fan of Jamie Thomas. Whether you like it or not. It's just weird to me you'd care that much to try changing my mind when I could give two ducks about how you feel

Lmao there's no getting out of that one

maybe the dude that texted smyth was leland from 48 blocks; he's one of the old emb heads and i think he did or does work for ride. maybe he does the news or something. i think he's the same dude that texted Tom k. i just remember everyone getting fired up about tom getting asked that. it was an instagram thing for a minute

haha, not sure what the donations is about, but i wish i was on the tour when 7 broads flashed the van.

not sure how who sells and distributes our boards makes the brand less rad at a consumer level, but shit you're the boss of your support. i'm just trying to get back to why i started zero; to make cool shit and work/skate w the team. when running a distribution i largely lost connection to the brand at the street level. now i'm back in the trenches and sorry if that smells like shit where you're at, but where i'm at it's rosie....

They can pull an ES and go under, then come back on a small scale and go to a good woodshop (like whoever does northern co gawd damn) then people would fuck with the boards and they might be able to be steady again, key word might

Yeah. In all seriousness. As opposed to going to Dwindle why didn't this (minus actually going under) happen?

Don't talk to me about being in the trenches. You have never been fired at and never will. Sit at your desk and sign checks, what you said is an insult to the forces who put their lives on the line every day to keep you safe and rosie. Warfare talk could earn you a buck but you should really stfu about that outside the brand.

relax dude, no one is knocking the armed forces; it's a metaphor for being back in the mix or the struggle. and i agree w you 100%, i obviously do not know what it's like to be shot at and i have the utmost respect for those that fight for our freedom. that's a whole other topic that you fired me into by taking one word out of context. the closest i've been to warfare is visiting afghanistan as a civilian to support skateistan and i was thankful for the structure our military helped provide to even make skateistan possible...

Neither have you.

I'm stoked you are skating more Jamie and giving Zero more attention.  To me whatever trends are hot there will always be a place in skateboarding for Zero.  Technically my first board was a shop blank, but I remember selling my bass guitar so I could buy a serious setup and I was so happy I got the firebirds deck.  Thanks iSuck!

Keep Rolling!
