i doubt he got dropped/or left oakley...

i would blame it on being a simple oversight, or he was pissed oakley didnt give him funding for "on top of the hood"

either way, that's purely speculative

i highly doubt he's off oakley

Yeah...Oakley's smart, he had 2 banger parts in films last season, 2nd person to triple, has a huge project this summer with Nimbus, probably 2 more banger segments on the way, and won X slope...not to mention he's a pretty big name in the ski culture and has been with them for a long time...they didn't drop him, and I don't really see him leaving them since he's under a "head to toe" contract with them....but you never know...

i think he was going accreditation to those sponsores of his who have helped him with the project, Oakley just was not involved in it.
