Ok so im goin through the June 2004.5 issue of Alliance and i come across the 484 add, it said "RIDE IT LIKE YOU STOLE IT! WE DO!" Are they being funny about copying Thomas or is it just irony?

Ha ha, I saw that ad. It actually takes place at my home Lake and I am pretty sure they don't even sell their skates. Good stuff.

...and in comes parky talking smack about 484...as if LF had an original product. oh wait, he isnt riding for them this week. hah. my bad.

scott a, my point exactly, except for the Parky picking

parky · Kickflip Joined: 04 Oct 2004 Posts: 3193

scott a, yes I rode for LF, but the main thing is I dont anymore... The reason I go off on them is that they bought a ten-80 wakeskate bag from us and then took it to china got one with there name on it Rolling Eyes

just as the owner said they where going to make it look alot different

Grouch, dude, I have no idea, thats my bosses dept, never met whom ever it was personally

kento911,

His name is Troy Flick and he was the socal rep for 484 and he is also the national sales manager for Gator...Which would explain the rumors about Chase going to Gator.

He is a good guy, reps for a ton of companies and really busts his ass. (Troy if read this I need some new gear Wink

)
