Sadly does not address the eyebrow situation

Maybe they fell off last time he did a 720?

Hahahaha, came to post ā€˜ol Tony in the Guardian.

I really like the guy but have an unhealthy desire to know what has happened to the eyebrows.

I wonder who her boyfriend is?

According to some in-depth Instagram detective work, it’s Oski.

just watched this, what a loon but i cant help but love him :joy:

can anyone explain what his beef is with FA/Jason Dill? i though they were cool?

Not exactly in depth but it’s sort of an answer. (From the dose skateboarding interview).

Is there an etiquette to poaching skaters from other companies?

There’s a right and wrong way to approach it. Right? I’m not a fan of FA. I’ll say that much.

Oh really? I feel like from the outside looking in, FA is one of the few recent board companies to really make a solid mark on the industry.

If I wasn’t me, I would feel that same way. Probably. But I think I’m too close.

Want to elaborate on your dislike of FA?

I think it’s self-explanatory. I mean, just the way Dill goes about stuff. I don’t know. I’m just not a fan. He’s annoying to say the least.

I read something in the past week or so where Alex says something along the lines of, ā€˜if Dill is in on a session he’ll be cheering you on but there’s something that doesn’t ring true about his backing you - I (Alex) just don’t trust him’. Something like that anyway. I don’t remember where I saw it though.

but i guess things change when you have your own company

This American series has been amazing, wish they were longer though. Guess they had to squeeze all 6 into a print issue

Nice. Touches on the emotional hardships of moving to a new country and not knowing anyone. Loved that openness.

This was a superb read. Thank you! That Shiloh story is hilarious.

Chany was always a legend to me as a fellow Swissie but this interview about his time in the States and what he went through just made him even more incredible: Free Skate Magazine Ā» The American Dream (part 6 of 6): Chany Jeanguenin

Talk about dedication!

Geoff’s was a reasonable amount longer. Nothing major but I did wonder if they’d run the whole thing for online.

Yeah the chany one is sick. Love how he switched from vert skater to legit street skater

That was a really good interview, I just watched his Modus part again for the first time in a while where he skates vert at the start, it’s great that he kept that up while mainly skating street towards the end of his career. I’m guessing Expedition is no longer around?
