I think guestboards is actually a good idea, getting 'pro' guests, and possibly running some boards even for Am level skaters. 917 can reposition itself as an agent for young skateboarders, help them get exposure/royalties, low overhead model. there are dozen skaters in the 917 area I can think of off the top of head who could get behind this model by the end of week.

I appreciate his honesty but the team was totally justified in leaving. Alex hasn't been pushing the company or team at all and all of those guys rip and deserve to be on companies that back them. It's funny too because the way he describes the team acting sounds a lot like him when he was on Girl. Also, the photoshop comment is hilarious considering how rudimentary the majority of 917's graphics are. Wish him the best though.

917 has been around for a while now and I would say it has been successful for a skate company, he also manages a clothing company so that's two things to worry about.

The company lasted like 5 years. A lot of companies have more than one person at the foundation of it. In the age that Jamie and Ed were doing it, skateboarding was for sure smaller and easier to manage. I think Alex did fine. Even then, Toy has had full face lifts of the team. It happens. They just don't publicize it. Alex is fine and he's done fine. He'll pick back up and continue being himself.
