Yeah the docomentary sounds like it's going to be interesting, I don't think anyone held back and hearing how all the guys who left the team in the early 90s and started up companies is going to be cool.
So he's quit Powell three times now, on top of quitting World Industries, Black Label, and Element. Two failed companies TV and By the Sword, (I know that Transit is in there as well but I can't remeber if that was his company or he just rode for them). This guy is unbelieveable.
Yea, I'm confused. Did he quit SOC/PP again? I read his blog, and as much as I am a fan of his, he seems to be very flaky. I mean, he continues to talk about staying true and all that, but he changes companies like someone who doesn't know how to commit. Maybe he's just had horrible luck with sponsors. He seems like someone who needs to be successful in order to make a living, but he hates being successful because of all the draw backs that come with being a professional skateboarder. I get the fact that he just wants to skate and not deal with the demands on his time. But last I checked, those two things go hand in hand.
Either way I wish him luck and success. He has always been one of my favorite skaters.
He's still on the P&P team rooster, so from the twitter picture it looks like an old school board, so maybe that's what he's pushing and is able to stay on Powell. He's still competeing with Powell on the old school deck market though.

Looks like Mike V is starting his own skate company, "Elephant Brand".
Will this be a division of skateone?
Either way I wish him luck and success. He has always been one of my favorite skaters.
