fuck that, no one complains about magnetos wealth cuz he took it from NAZIS when he was young.
oh yeah no one gets my xmen references here. T.T
also, id almost like to see it even more if it IS a dumpster fire. unless its a dumpster full of mboards batteries. that would be too predictable. ayyyyyy
I personally still find conventions very useful in my line of work. Nothing beats true hands on, personally meeting and talking to people in which you do business,(or might do business with), and networking.
Actually headed to Chicago in September for FABTECH, which is always great.
Before you come in here and spread more negativity, did you actually read all of the posts in this thread?
No one knows what to actually think about this
People will be upset that the event happens or doesn’t happen - why not just take advantage of the opportunity. I doubt mike will make anything from this.
I read it all yes my dude. Consider that with his obscurity and seo rankings Mike has likely ripped off more people than Jason Potter. Let that sink in.
Nowadays taking a quick look at the site it looks like about half of the products are low tier chinese crap
The other half is a mix of mid tier parts and unknown quality batteries, with, ironically, unities.
I wouldn’t necessisarily consider him to be ripping people off anymore, he’s upgraded since the fiasco that we are familiar with. I’ve never talked to him or anything like that but it seems like most of the stuff on there is moderate value.
It doesn’t seem like people should care this much. According to the site he has a warranty policy, and I’m not going to buy anything, but at the same time, what is the point in not letting people experience an event that could actually end up being decent
If the event is a failure and it sucks, so be it. Mike loses money and considers if it should even happen again.
I mean he has to have put at least 10 grand into it already with the rentals
Maybe we attend, observe, and figure out if it would be better run by our community in 2023 - I would love to have a large SoCal eskate event
The wife and I are gonna go that weekend no matter what. Good excuse to go to Vegas. 12 hour drive to bring boards and have fun. (For me) Let’s group ride there if nothing else.
