They still have a solid team especially if Levi is still on it, he's one of the best skaters on that team.

**hamper gnome** · 03.09.2019, 20:19

Yuto doesn’t make anything

**Toebex** · 04.09.2019, 08:47

As long as they keep making skates that look like shit then it wont be long until they are all gonna bounce.

Also what did Nils say about Joe?

Nothing, Martin was talking a bit of shit when Joe dropped...

**Basza** · 04.09.2019, 13:12

Martin left since he didn`t like the directives from ROCES - mostly the thing they wanted to release his video (that he filmed with Levi and Seba Dzbik during the summer) late December while they want to put it out now. Also ROCEs focuses on their PRO riders first not the "ambasadors" so he kind of didn`t like it either. For me personally it`s a big loss for Roces as Martin DID A LOT to promote as just an ambasador. If LEVI will follow and also quits ROCES it will be even greater loss - the kid is on fire right now and his potential is huge.

My mistake, I somehow read that as "Jansons" even while i was typing it. I'm a moron.

Ok so what did Martin say?

**Momagic** · 09.09.2019, 12:31

I\d love to know more about this as Martin was a good am, he was young and had a good reach and was getting better and better?

So yeah the Pros are Nils, Yuto and Bobi right now. And I agree Levi is a shredder. It's funny though as him and Martin look very similar when they're skating… maybe that had something to do with it? And the ams: Chad, Grant, Stefan, Levi and loads of italian dudes.

It also appears that Elliot Stevens isn't on the AM team anymore either. He was skating some Thems recently.

I was supporting Roces as they kinda felt like the underdog… but there's a bit of shadiness going over there.

**denialchild45** · 09.09.2019, 22:58

I feel like Nils is the "Face" of Roces right now. I also feel like Yuto will leave- to where? I'm not sure.

They look similar but Levi is way better. Levi has had two pro skates (yes from Adapt but still). He deserves a spot on the pro team if he stays there. They still have a solid team. If they lost Yuto or Bobi, then Stefan or Grant could bump up to pro, they do a great job or representing the brand.

That was kinda my point

I don't see Yuto going anywhere. Bobi on the other hand… I think he's amazing, but I still wouldn't class him as 'pro'. But yeah I agree with your other point - I really like the Roces team.

What shit was he saying? I'm sure it's come back to bite him... Karma... amirite?

**azrider** · 02.10.2019, 21:15

You couldn’t be more wrong about the reasons Martin “left”.

**azrider** · 02.10.2019, 21:17

Literally the only thing Martin had going for him was being “young”-er than your average blader. I’m not sure how you see him leaving as some big tell all sign.

You mean he didn’t like holding up his end of their bargain that he agreed to for money.

What team wouldn’t focus on their pro team over their am team? Lmao isn’t that kind of exactly what any logical person would expect? There’s also A LOT you’re leaving out here, but I guess that’s to be expected and it’s shit that I unfortunately can’t expand upon.

I know it’s shitty, but I cant

**Dre** · 03.10.2019, 20:56

what a waste of a post

**Momagic** · 04.10.2019, 16:39

I just realised - is this the first an AM has notified everyone that they're leaving a team publicly.

**ASU S4** · 05.10.2019, 08:56

“I know more specifics about this story, but I can’t tell you, I just wanted you all to know that I know and you don’t”.

**azrider** · 06.10.2019, 02:18

I mean, yeah, I can’t spill the beans on specifics because it’s not my place to do so, but I wanted to put it out there that what you and the other guy said are either wrong or not the full story.

**azrider** · 06.10.2019, 02:30

Reading the bit about Roces focusing more on the Pro team than the Am team and acting like that’s some irregularity worth even mentioning is pretty...lul. Not only that, but if Martin felt somehow wronged by that it’s even funnier.

Martins skating has matured quite a bit, after putting 908s on his feet.

**hamper gnome** · 12.10.2019, 16:27

New then rider is being announced in feb, for them skates... yuto might be flying the coup.

Lol def not, in about one week from now you’ll see quite the opposite.

We get it, your boy rides for Roces and you get inside info. Maybe shut the fuck up about it and let people be surprised...

Says the dude who puts #GoJoe on all his shit. Sorry for correcting things when you’d rather have your circle jerk fantasies. Maybe go fuck yourself

I never understood why Danning was on the Roces team in the first place.

I think Martin was pretty cool for the AM team, and for sure was getting better and better. But I guess he was expecting more from that relationship... As for that comment about Yuto on Thems - I doubt that very much. I'm interested in that announcement though, I'm not sure whether it's a UK skater as they're in the UK when they're announcing the new rider. If it is I suspect it's probably Leon Humphries.

how much do you think roaches is paying pros nowadays ?

I often wonder if the only pro's being paid anything more than a quid or something are the pros on Razors or USD, if that. Even pro skateboarders hardly get paid. You have to be a big name to start with like Chris Joslin or PJ Ladd to get paid enough to live off. I dont dare imagine how hopeless it is to be a pro rollerblader.

**Apsley Cherry-Garrard** · 03.11.2019, 08:40

I think the only bladers getting paid are the ones who skate the comp tours.
