Just thought I'd bring up something I noticed in the Battle Falls vid that's all. Nothing more. Nothing less.
senorbueno, That was the whole point about the whole graphic cafuffle wasn't it.

It means what you think it means.
It's all about what it means to the ride that want's it as his/her graphic... & then what it means to you personally.

ummm, well, yes. We all interoperate things in our own way. That's what makes us human. If we all saw things the same way. It would be a pretty dull old world.
( not hatting on anyone or thing... peace, love & good will to all )
yeah, I'm looking forward to seeing Andrew's graphic too.

electricsnow, the issue Greg brought up is relevant to this thread.
Travis B, Graphic design is a tough process. Especially when you have to build, press & ship out hundreds of skates and a few custom wakeboards in the period of time Erich has. He wants Fortenberry's graphic to represent Andrew to the fullest extent and he wants it to have an impact. It will not be a rushed piece of art because Erich does not work like that.
frankycouplepuphs, YES IT DOES!
WERDna, FYF!!!!!!

I think it was relevant about a month ago. Now the great majority doesn't care and would rather see images of some actual wakeskated, rather than dredge up old sentiments.

I think it's important ... if we ignore the double standard it's not fair!... an it deserves to be apart of the discussion otherwise it's fiznackling censorship fitting for a few.
...and I'd personally like to thank George Daniels

You of all people I would have expected to have this dropped because you were pissed people didn't like the graphic in the first place and they didn't think your inside joke was funny.
Then I guess keep fueling the fire. I guess the internet is great for that.
Also, I don't think there's censorship. Some people decided to move on.

The very moment I saw that segment in the video clip, I thought of this thread. That's why I brought it up. After all the hoo-ha that went on in here, I was waiting for the big backlash, denouncing it, .......but nothing. To “me”, as an outsider, it “appeared” to be a bit of a double standard. (my opinion)
I thought the point I made was relevant to this thread. & after all the negative comments that were directed at Ryan, Erich & Integrity as a co., in the order of balance, I thought that it needed to be said.
I could have said nothing (inner thought (“Gee, I wouldn’t want to express an opinion that differs from the majority” & risk being shot down in flames by all the “know it all’s”.... no! wait!) )... but I tamely went about saying it how I saw it.
I wasn't/aren't trying to stir people up/ fuel the fire. Not at all.
Having said that ....... Quote: | dredging up old sentiments |
Quote: | some people decided to move on | In lieu of that & reaction to the flag graphic. How long ago was the civil war ???......
Sorry. I’ll take my Trash Pump & Gas can & run away now....
p.s.electricsnow, please don’t take this as, me trying to argue a point with you. I’m not. I respect your opinion & that of others on this forum.,

I don't like it and I bought one. Now if it would hurry up and arrive so I can go and skate.

I had a chance to step on a fortenberry real quick and it was awesome. I've never been on an Integrity and it was very quick, fun, and I really liked how the concave gradually comes to the center of the board. Excited to try it out again sometime.
