aragon left able... and what happened

[iglue]

so razors said to aragon that if he wants his pro skates he cant have able frames on em so he left able and now he skates for some other company..gc probly

so now azikewee is mad cause able made aragon what he is today... so he did this...

[sukeats]

ouch

[iglue]

for those of you guys out there who think you know....heres the deal...azikwee isnnt mad aragon left....he has had his back since day one....that fact is, azikwee spent money to make a frame for aragon....instead telling azikwee before he went and made the frame, he just bounced.....what does that equal? money wasted...i understand people have to leave sometimes....but to leave your "friend" with a shit load of frames with your name on them....thats weak....aragon should ahve told azikwee he was bouncing before the frames were produced....and if they were already produced....he should have left after the frames were sold....not when the frame comes out....and your trippin if you think he moved on to better things....loyalty is a bitch in this industry!!!

well..i guess thats why he HAD to print that sticker on the box...to cover up the word "ARAGON PRO FRAME"


thankfully his name isnt on the frame itself.

Charles Dunkle........Fired because it wasnt felt he deserved a one hundred dollar a month raise.

Robert Lievanos.....Fired for ?? I guess progressing the sport and being supportive of all kids with skates on.

Damien Wilson....Fired, for being better than everyone and helping within his community (from what I have heard his family runs a group home for the disabled) or as Brian Shima so gracefully stated "his family is nice enough to let retards stay with them" Brian, go smoke another one...

Micah Yeager.....left because he was not treated fairly

Dre Powell......Recieved 4 dollars (maybe a little less or more) per skate for his pro skate.....this is with royalties from a pro liner, gc frame (because they were too cheap to buy Fiziks, now fiziks is out of business, good job Sunshine !!! you sunk a fellow rollers battleship), and the pro dre boot. People purchased this skate because Dre's name was on it....dont you think they could have got him a little more money....

I have heard that a 60,000 dollar pool was just built at the Devils Mansion...the same guy who told me he took a 70% pay cut ..... if he took a 70% cut and still can afford a 60,000 dollar pool where do you think the money came from

Lets just say Robert, Charles, Jon Elliott, Damien Wilson, and Micah Yeagers combined income was 5000 dollars a month (not a bad cost to advertise when you have stripped all of your ads from Daily Bread the mother of all skate mags)......if you fire them you save 60,000 a year right??? There you go....some of the most amazing rollerbladers on the planet have been fired for the well being of all !!!!! The Devil and his Associates (DrePowell,BrianAragon,AdamJohnson, etc) can now go swim at Michael Jackson, I mean the Devils crib....or maybe they will be lucky enough to ride in the "company" Hummer which I bet was written off as a business expense....

We as Rollerbladers need to take a step back and try to understand what is really going on within our industry.

I have made the change to K2, the company which is suing GC because GC stole patented technology from them. You see how skaterdude has a fuck k2 icon....this is because K2 is giving Sunshine a taste of their own medicine...The new technology Razors will be using for the Aragon Skate was also stolen....from the minds of Damien Wilson and Robert Lievanos but because it was not patented they will recieve no royalties and are FIRED.....

It seems to me that the only reason people are sticking around is because of shady contracts and fears of not knowing how to get things done outside of the restricted cannopy that the devil has engulfed our PRO's with.

There are some facts from an ABLE RIDER who loves rollerblading and actually does it.....not some devil who isnt looking out for the industry


There is part of the other side.....if you would like to ask me more questions hit me up at [e-mail] or on aim at "the hub atl" I work for no one in this industry i support my family members that do not do me wrong......

Zeek told Brian that he would help him design a completely new Able Frames if he wanted.....he also gave Briana a chance when he was still that park rat kid from Colorado who did all the spinny wirly flips...and helped him become a raw deal roller...When I met that kid he came off as cocky, a lot of the kids in ATL have told me that he was a dick to them, so I never really gave a shit about him anyways.....have fun Briana....have fun everywhere you go....I am sure that you are good at bulding bridges and when you get tired of your current set up people will be quick to jump on because your such a loyal rider......

I could go on and on but I am going to the Second Regime Premier at Xgames skatepark in Duluth GA....I am going to hang out with rollerbladers and I am going to chill with the Dirtiest Mother Fucking Crew in the United States....the kids who will know which side has their back and which side wants them to have no other options....


Peace out from the Dirty South

Peace and One Love to all people who roll

the statements in this post are my opinions and should be respected as that and only that....thank god I am entitled to speak my mind in America if not people would be led into a pool of feces

once again this post is just the opinion of a rollerblader who has been bleeding with the best of them for 10 years strong.....

peacehomie

[sukeats]

somehow that left a bad taste in my mouth...


both - - - for what happened and for him to be angry enough to write that.


hey - its probably a sign that the industry is growing up...lets call it the awkward teenage years.

If you are reading this i'm sure you read the post which shows the sticker that is now on the box of ABLE frames and the post Kevin Dowling left trying to make me look like the devil to everyone. There is always two sides of a story and I thought you should know about the other half.

First of all I know and appreciate all Azikiwee has done for me as a rollerblader and a person! My reason to quit ABLE had nothing to do with the money, but had everything to do with my progression as a rollerblader. While skating for ABLE I realized that no matter how much you respect someone or want to please them that you can't be happy yourself when you are skating a product you don't like. On a smaller scale, for 4 months when I would ask for frames nothing came and I had to go to a skate shop in CO and buy my own ABLE frame. Also after the first season of frames was released I was the only one on the team who didn't get a royalty check from their own pro frame, once again if I was as money hungry as they claim I would have been gone when that happened (oh yea the check never came).

Finally, I don't have a frame sponsor, yes I skate GC frames. To Kevin, I don't think its right to form such a negative opinion of a person you met only once and based on a biased side of a story! I have always wanted to be the best rollerblader that I can be and I feel that making the decision to leave ABLE is being true to myself and my beliefs. If there is any questions, post up.

Peace,
Brian Aragon

i think this will help everyone realize that skate companies being owned by big corporations arent that bad after all...
