I've used all his products. They deck is warped and isn't fine sanded at all.
He is one of 20 companies doing this dude, they aren't doing it for your benefit or because they enjoy making fingerboards. They are doing it to make a quick and easy buck, without any effort going into it at all.

and they are by far not anywhere near flatface quality. Mike has been making decks and wheels for years, all 100% his own ideas and designs, that's something worth respecting. Ordering a cheap product in bulk and then selling on ebay and a webshop calling them your own isn't.

also, try and use spellcheck. I'll take you a bit more seriously.

LOL you must be getting close to that ff distribution deal Grant , hope it works out for you , I wish you and your company all the best in this new year. thanks

dude your just a hater maybe we should all be snobby douche bags and hate on everyone who wants to start a company or distribute! and of course your opinion is bias so it doesn't matter shit to me! the stuff bobby sells is good and you can do anything on it you can do on any other deck! and the wheels i can garuntee you are faster and smoother than the g6s i had. but im done wasting my breath your bias opinion doesn't matter bobby is here to stay and you cant do anything about it.

*sniff* *sniff* i smell bum-licking

lololol so true.
but many say i bum lick fusion.

fuck off im not kissing ass im backing products i like and use! out of all the brands of decks ive had the shape of 4cs is my preference so ill back them all i want. act like you dont like a product and wouldnt stand up for it , or you probably dont have the balls to.

...What? What other company have I hated on? And I'm being snobby and biased? I'm pretty sure if you go back up and read my post everything I posted was fact...not fiction my friend. Bobby even agreed. Actually in my biased opinion I think Bobby is a good guy and I have nothing personal against him. I'm just against what he is doing. I think it's doing nothing but hurting fingerboarding and REAL companies that actually consume most of their real lives testing new products and coming up with genuine ideas.

sola he's just supporting the company he likes best... if philipe the owner of yellowood had an account here on fbhq or ffi or wherever, i would support it because it's one of my favourite companies and they make great products imo . back on topic, the new stickers look gnar bobby and some people may or may not moan about the cutting of the stickers but it's just a little 5 second thing to do

thanks jose im really not tryinig to argue with everyone. i just like the products and customer service.

But nobody else is hurting fingerboarding just my company?
Grant for a non personal attack it really feels like one, I just wonder what you stand to gain by it?

enough everyone......ive been a little while catching up with the thread, god forbid, i do have stuff to do......please dont make me sort out the arguments too guys.....

and headstash, bobby's products are cheap, and their not bad, but i agree with grant that these products are killing the real fingerboard companies, i just think its maybe a little naive of you headstash.....

i dont want to pick sides, bobby is a cool guy, and to be fair he is selling the products more cheaply than anyone else, but to say he is doing it for the scene??? i dunno......maybe if selling the 'products' cheaper than other people, is doing it for the scene, then yes, but, i know theirs money being made for not much work.....and supporting mass produced Chinese stuff......

its just flooding the market with knock off stuff....OK, it might be cheap, but if you call yourself a real fingerboarder you would support innovators and people pushing their art.

LOL you are right blosom it's all about the big money i'm making and i've done nothing to support the scene.
i'm a bad man

head stash you really piss me off every time you post and why have companies in your sig that your not sponsored by it makes no sense

lol.

thought i said no more arguments.....ive not got time for them.....

did i once say you were a bad man? did i once say you were making big money? and did i once say you have done nothing to support the scene?

sometimes on the internet i think stuff gets twisted and you dont get the tone it was said in....

personally i dont agree with the china stuff. sorry. but i dont. secondly i know how much i can personally get them for, so dont tell me your doing it for nothing....you would be a fool.

thirdly i think your work with the mag is great, and like i said above but am repeating myself now, i think your cool, and i dont want to pic sides. i wouldn't want to fall out with you or grant or anyone. but we all have our opinions.

Explain how I ever said your company was the ONLY company hurting fingerboarding? I also never said I approved of ff,nc, red., ect. ect. selling china wides. If I did I would probably be selling Hard Knox trucks as well. That being said, those companies have done SO much for fingerboarding, and they really put their heart and soul into their products. I would be a complete idiot to say that they are hurting fingerboarding by selling china wides.

Your company on the other hand does nothing but sell things from china. Trucks, decks, wheels, tape, whatever. That's why I'm pointing out your company in particular, and the other companies that are similar, and running the exact same products as you.

Thanks for all the extras man!! The wheels are AWESOME and so is the MAG and thanks for all the extras! Why are you arguing bout this? Just let each other be alone and handle your own companies....

Stickers look great!!

And you might loose that distribution deal right, 50 decks? wow big time



I really got nothing left to say,
i think we are all in total agreement simply support the companies you like
and destroy the ones you don't

ahhhhh..thought i said stop it......

if i thought anyone was trying to destroy a company i would have something to say about it....also i think the more you know about fingerboarding the more you know how things roll.

also i think your cool bobby, i have nothing against you, you know that. at the moment im trying to get some stuff for your mag finished....haven't really got the time for it, but still...i try and help everyone.....if i thought nothing of you, i wouldnt be bothering....please dont think i am against you. as i am not. i can just understand how the china products are one day i fear, going to make small company owners, (like myself) give up...because it will just not be worth it when everyone is buying decks for a dollar each.

but each to their own.

the work you and ryan are doing with the mag is awesome though, keep it up, maybe try and get some legit products and support 'real' fb stuff though???.....also id try and get the mag sorted where you have regular contributors, and not just a 'free for all'....it causes too many problems that way imo...but this isn't the thread to talk about that...

i think that can of worms is already open man ...

no...i dont think it is...if you mean your own company???

this is why i have suggested a few things above for you.....

i think your thinking everyone hates your co....i dont think anyone does....just some dont totally agree with the whole selling the china products for profit thing.....although, i try my best to keep out.

LOL i wasn't talking about my company

Nobody is trying to "destroy your company" bobby. All I did was suggest a way to make your shit look more professional considering you cut corners in every other aspect of the company. And you said you dont have time...? I would understand no time if you were pressing decks all day, sanding, lathing wheels, molding trucks or ANYTHING of that nature.Unfortunately your not and you dont respect your customers enough to cut there stickers for them so it makes them nice and uniform. You are destroying your own company by not taking constructive critiscm to improve yourself instead your backing youself into a corner in hopes people will feel sorry for you. Boo fucking hoo. I cannot sympathize with someone who is not willing to take critiscm from US (the fingerboarders and customers), and then say th ey dont have time to make improvements. You guys on bobbys dick really think hes doing something for you by doing that? Show support for that mag, its sick and creative and I commend you for that bobby. I wish you would at least take take some of that time, effort, and creativity to your company. if your gonna resell china shit who am I to say thats wrong, but at least do it with a little dignity.


PS Sorry blosom for arguing haha much loveeeeee

Who is crying I'm saying fuck you and fuck hard knox's how is that crying?

stop now.
