I am all for people earning a living but it seems like some skaters are becoming walking billboards for mega companies. For example Van shredders Ryan and Scott Decenzo , and Oakville’s Mark Appleyard, have joined the Arnette “skate team family” which is owned by www.luxottica.com.Check out this report on their current MARKET CAP $$$$$$$$$ .

Anyhow the skateboarding in good>
