When was the last time anyone was shocked by a sponsor move?
This Louie to FA thing has been on the cards for about a year. He was skating a spray painted board on the Dec 2017 cover of Thrasher which indicated he was leaving Flip and the rumours were about FA even back then.
Am I a dick for never really being that arsed about Louieās footage because all I think of is how lame he was when he was a little red t shirt wearing kid with braces and a new era? Canāt lose it in my head. Dunno. His skating is too perfect for me. I donāt find him fun to watch!
Sadly Iāve always heard off mates for years that the people behind Adrenaline Alley are wankers, doing stuff for disabled and learning difficulties is dope as fuck but a lot of places do outwards facing stuff for funding (not to say thats the only reason) , and I guess what Iāve heard is that they just donāt get skate culture? Like paying in is paying into a leisure centre.
Mates who have turned up to skate the vert ramp have had to āprove themselvesā that they can skate it several times and then been kicked out after driving hours haha
yeah i think i said before, theyāre definitely geared up for everyone other than skateboarders as a set up. imagine having that much space (itās basically 5 warehouses) and there being very little that i would consider as good to skate
I have this weird idea that heās one of the closest things we have to a modern Penny. Always asleep at the wheel and doing something completely unpredictable. Literally does not give a fuck about winning any of those park contests and stoned as can be.
