typo in the title, I know. But apparently there was a manufacturing defect and some shops sent their orders back. But thats a little thing to drop the whole skate operation no?

This reminds me of when Huffy stopped making quality bikes, and dropped their entire team.

huffy still had a few quality bikes if you bought the really nice ones and changed out the parts, but they really are a walmart staple.


Sucks that some of the really solid companies sold out. Can make a lot of money selling shit bikes though walmart to people buying them because they have pegs.

Sucks for the team. Seems like the bosses are just kinda ass holes.

ENTIRE TEAM?    like tony hawk too?

not the entire team but still that is a pretty dick move because the shoes had defects that they just threw the whole thing out the window. brezinzki has got some fucking style so who cares he will skate for somebody.

I'm suprised they even lasted this long. Fuck Adio. They suck balls.
Too bad to see a couple of those dudes sponsorless though. Especially Joey Brezinski, Jordan Hoffart, Chris Troy and of course Ronnie Creager. That dude is a legend.

the worst part is when 88 went down after a team member fucked the owners wife. That was epic and i snagged a pair of 88's as soon as this happened so i have a piece of 88 history
