November 13th, 2009 at 12:04 pm

November 13th, 2009 at 12:09 pm

November 13th, 2009 at 12:13 pm
I see a familiar vibe here…
November 13th, 2009 at 12:20 pm
jealous bitches. JELLO NIGGAS
November 13th, 2009 at 12:30 pm

November 13th, 2009 at 12:31 pm
Krew straight coming up in Snow! sick team
November 13th, 2009 at 12:41 pm
TOO TIGHT! TOO TIGHT!
November 13th, 2009 at 12:43 pm
that edit is ill
November 13th, 2009 at 12:46 pm
Is this part of commune?
November 13th, 2009 at 12:51 pm
does someone at ashbury also work at comune?
i am a little confused?
November 13th, 2009 at 12:57 pm
good song choice
November 13th, 2009 at 1:00 pm
krew/ashbury snaked some COMUNE snow guys away. pretty lame, especially seeing as some ashbury peeps were tight with COMUNE guys i think.
November 13th, 2009 at 1:06 pm
comune and krew use the same font. i think krew is taking a stab at comune for biting them
November 13th, 2009 at 1:09 pm
comune is wack, krew is sick. put a fork in comune, they are done.
November 13th, 2009 at 1:13 pm

November 13th, 2009 at 1:14 pm
I don’t understand this. Same guys as commune. Does commune still have a snow team? It looks like commune style. I thought KREW was a hip hop brand. Can someone clear this up?
November 13th, 2009 at 1:16 pm
COMUNE has a different font, it may look the same, but at least COMUNE doesnt use ’3′ for the E like N in snow is flipped
November 13th, 2009 at 1:22 pm
Isn’t that a pretty common font? So many brands do the letter flip. No one’s breaking the sound barrier here with their typography.
November 13th, 2009 at 1:23 pm
KREW uses helvetica
November 13th, 2009 at 1:24 pm
krews new type face is new…. this is public knowledge
November 13th, 2009 at 1:33 pm
damn so this was a dis?
November 13th, 2009 at 1:35 pm
Ed Hardy Snow x Krew Snow collabo, its going to feature both their names in Helvetica Neue Condensed Bold with one letter flipped and one letter replaced with a number.
November 13th, 2009 at 1:37 pm
funny how the commune eployees have nothing better to do than talk shit about krew and ashbury during their work day
November 13th, 2009 at 1:38 pm
Why would KREW take Comune riders then try to dis them?
November 13th, 2009 at 1:39 pm
Comune actually has employees? I thought they just sat around snorting cocaine and shooting heroin all day?
November 13th, 2009 at 1:42 pm
Comune let those riders go.
November 13th, 2009 at 1:44 pm
Fuck the fonts, all i noticed was fresh snowboarding.
November 13th, 2009 at 1:46 pm
COMUNE fools
November 13th, 2009 at 1:50 pm
haha comune let kooley, driks, nima, jordan go? but they kept their unknown group of snow riders. FUNNY
November 13th, 2009 at 1:50 pm
i lOVE fOnts They mEan ERRting, Ya diG?
three cheers for font
hip hip horrAy
we couldnt even COMUNEicate with out them
November 13th, 2009 at 1:52 pm
Probably lets these AMS go because Snow Riders do sell product. They just shred and smoke weed.
November 13th, 2009 at 1:54 pm
FUNNY says: no one is denying that KREW stole ideas. Its ok they got Comunes left overs. There like shrimp feeding of the scraps.
November 13th, 2009 at 1:55 pm

November 13th, 2009 at 2:37 pm
There is a company out LA that is called “commune” with 2 m’s that started well before “COMUNE” they are biters all the way around. Kr3w has done the same amazing shit since 02. Heroin is really cool Comune.
November 13th, 2009 at 3:08 pm

November 13th, 2009 at 3:19 pm

RIPS OFF COMUNE.
THATS ALL… YOU CAN TALK YOUR SHIT. TALK ABOUT RIDERS. TALK ABOUT FOUNDING DATES. TALK ABOUT YOUR TYPE FACE WHICH EVERYONE KNOWS IS NEW.
THIS TEASER IS A RIP OFF. PEOPLE KNOW IT.
AND THAT COMMENT TO COREY WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN SAID IN PERSON …
for the record I do not work at COMUNE or Krew.
both solid snow teams though…
November 13th, 2009 at 3:30 pm
yeah that was a little harsh to corey… i am real into this team though!
November 13th, 2009 at 3:32 pm

November 13th, 2009 at 4:58 pm
Sick
November 13th, 2009 at 5:03 pm
is it possible to copyright a snowboarder’s name and likeness? i was thinking of doing it. all this “stealing” talk has me thinking dollar signs.
November 13th, 2009 at 5:05 pm
this is amazing
November 13th, 2009 at 5:11 pm
I like how Comune listed their team and said it was legit, but they have ben rice on the team! LOL
November 13th, 2009 at 5:32 pm
haha you guys are tooo funny, who the fuck cares, EVERYONE bites shit from others get over it its life that shit happens. both have good teams, both companys are making more choices for you kids to go buy. neither is better or worse
November 13th, 2009 at 5:32 pm
BEN RICE IS BLOWING UP VIA HATE.
ALL Publicity is good publicity BEN
November 13th, 2009 at 5:37 pm
Cool stoked to know that im not involved in any way in this. and that i guess im just huge loser thanks for letting me know I suck.
November 13th, 2009 at 5:39 pm
Comune isn’t even on the same level as Krew, i don’t understand why they are trippin?
November 13th, 2009 at 5:42 pm
Ben, how does it feel to still be on the underdog company known as Comune and didnt get picked up by the big leagues over at Krew?
November 13th, 2009 at 5:47 pm
good there my homies they could make mumus and would stil do it. I have no hate krews team is sick the video is really good Jed is amazing and Jake olsen elm has cool style.
November 13th, 2009 at 6:40 pm
this is like transworld snowboarding comment boards but extremely more entertaining. lets get some more of this!
November 13th, 2009 at 7:48 pm
commune kicked all them off
November 13th, 2009 at 8:16 pm
ask Lance if how he got the riders, he’s the TM….bet you he wont tell the truth
November 13th, 2009 at 8:19 pm
hahahahahahahahah
November 13th, 2009 at 9:20 pm
Here’s what went down,
the comune riders quit to ride for krew.
comune talked a bunch of shit.
krew put the reverse “N” in the vid to pretty much say fuck you to Comune.
Comune workers are crying and trying to say that they kicked off kooley, jordan ect… hey comune good luck convincing people that you kicked off kooley, jordan, dirks, nima, and you continued to pay the b grade riders you have left on your team.
November 13th, 2009 at 9:50 pm
isn’t a commune basically a KR3W?
what a weird coincidence.
kr3w:1. a group of persons involved in a particular kind of work or working together: the crew of a train; a wrecking crew.
commune: 1. a small group of persons living together, sharing possessions, work, income, etc., and often pursuing unconventional lifestyles.
November 13th, 2009 at 10:41 pm
Commune get a life or handle it.
November 13th, 2009 at 10:44 pm
Commune sounds like their bitches chose KR3W. Ahahahahaa
November 13th, 2009 at 11:02 pm
I really want to see this hit 100 comments. What can i say to keep this hate alive for just one more day? someone is GAY and someone is WACK.
November 13th, 2009 at 11:25 pm
Hey this is amazing. It seems like everyone’s having a lot of fun on the message board here. I’m just going to squash this right now.
First off Jon, Jordan, and Nima quit COMUNE to ride for Krew and I wish them the best of luck. From what Nima told me they were offering him more money so no harm no foul. We had like 20 guys on our roster anyway so it’s probably for the best. Second off, I have no idea why you would try to fuck with us. I just doesn’t make sense. We’ve never done anything but be stoked on you guys and tried to help you out and work with you. COMUNE paid Jordan and Nima all year while they had knee injuries before we even sold one tee shirt. I made that happen because they are my homies and we go way back and I wanted to help them out. It’s not a big deal. Third off, thank you for doing all this. You’ve given our little brand so much publicity it’s incredible. Don’t forget COMUNE has only been in stores for just under six months. Krew has been around for 20 years. So there you have it everyone can shut the hell up. It doesn’t matter. If you have any questions send smoke signals.
November 13th, 2009 at 11:29 pm
Also if I get one more email or text about this I’m going to loose my shit. I don’t give a fuck…. I have a million better things to do with my life. I can’t believe people really care about this shit. It’s just snowboarding people. In fact it’s not even snowboarding, it’s fucking clothing.
November 13th, 2009 at 11:35 pm
But Corey, why do you think Krew decided to take the jab at you guys and flip the N at the end? Just for a quick laugh or serious hate intended? Im just wondering and I think a lot of other people are too
November 14th, 2009 at 1:35 am
um i think all this board bully blogging is bullshit, and you guys need to grow up, get back to work, and get a life.
as for the comune/kr3w/ashbury drama….. i think it’s really fuckin pathetic, sad, and unfortunate that you couldn’t just handle things in a professional manor, deal with what happened, and except it for what it is; instead of acting like a teenager, loosing your cool and loosing friends over it. If your already trying to keep your head above water in this industry, making enemies isn’t going to help your cause.
-and yes this is directed to a specific individual, and you know who u are.
November 14th, 2009 at 1:59 am
yeah lets get professional guys.
ps
Desiree is hot
November 14th, 2009 at 4:37 am
Hey Corey Smith, thanks for trying to make things cool with us (Ashbury)

November 14th, 2009 at 4:48 am
haha that shit is way too funny, corey your my boy, but you seriously wrote all those comments? kinda suspect man
November 14th, 2009 at 8:39 am
admin just went to town
November 14th, 2009 at 8:39 am
Robbie Sell warned you, now hes one backwards N deep in shit. Your amazing at art Corey but damn you aint smart.
November 14th, 2009 at 11:12 am
Well there’s a lot of people that work here that are bummed on what you guys did and how you handle your bis. I personally think the messages are all time hilarious. I think what started off as just fucking with you guys brought out your true colors. Especially since you deleted many of the comments that hit too close to home. Bottom line we’ve never done anything to you guys but try to help you and work with you. I guess you guys are just hella big time now and don’t give a fuck about anyone or anything but yourselves. Good luck.

November 14th, 2009 at 11:43 am
almost there guys! 100 comments any day now!
November 14th, 2009 at 12:08 pm
you are all a bunch of fucking hipsters.
November 14th, 2009 at 12:43 pm
FYI…I just checked the, Electronic Trademark System. COMUNE owns the right to operate a clothing company under COMUNE. COMMUNE (colective aromur) filled after COMUNE. It was Eddie Hann at Fast Eddies that tried to setal the name. I dont understand why KREW is taking a stab at COMUNE. I mean KREW isn’t on the same level as COMUNE. KREW isn’t fashion its Kids clothing, not Fashion.
November 14th, 2009 at 12:50 pm
PHAGS
November 14th, 2009 at 12:53 pm
this is hilarious.
November 14th, 2009 at 12:59 pm
I always had a feeling that Corey Smith was a maurk.
November 14th, 2009 at 1:56 pm
so fuckin sick hope that krew will have not only little tight pants for snowboarding need some baggies fo snowboarding
November 14th, 2009 at 1:58 pm
this is amazing. simply amazing.
November 14th, 2009 at 2:03 pm
imagine antwuan dixon that snowboard would be funny see this nigga
November 14th, 2009 at 2:24 pm
now i just wanna see this shit hit 100 posts
November 14th, 2009 at 2:36 pm
im glad to see COMUNE is now alittel bit less legit in the snowboard world in fact i hope they drop there hole dam snowboard team its a bummer Krew is starting a snow team they are very legit and it looks like a selling out thing. Fuck snowboarders
November 14th, 2009 at 2:52 pm
biggie/tupac beef goin on right here
November 14th, 2009 at 5:22 pm
wow corey really?
your just digging yourself into a hole and giving comune a worse rep every time you open your mouth.
at least these guys aren’t sneaking around talking shit on fake names then coming and trying to prove something be being nice. and then they call you out on it and you just bash them more. thats shitty, i hope you feel like a piece of shit. your acting like your in high school, and how old are you now like 50?
November 14th, 2009 at 6:30 pm
I just want to know? Before all this went down did you guys (Nima, John, Jordan) really feel good about ditching out on your supposed friends for a paycheck? Then on top of that put out this vid that is obviously a jab at those guys. I mean really, weather or not they went a little over the line with the comments, I think it is pretty clear that you were going for some kind of reaction with this. No?
November 14th, 2009 at 6:36 pm
pretty funny that you think Nima Jon and Jordan had anything to do with editing the video.
November 14th, 2009 at 6:41 pm
COMUNE= Fashion KR3W= Kids Clothing
HAHAHAHHAAHA So true though. so what they lost a couple “image boarders” to krew.. boo whooo. Nima doesn’t snowboard anymore does he? Jon Kooley?? who the fuck is that? He must be cool though. Mendenhall is DOPE.. I mean of course Comune is gonna be bummed if 3 of their riders leave to ride for another clothing company who’s gonna pay them more. Especially after comune payed them an entire season to do nothing..Hurt knees or somethin..I dunno I just kinda lost a lot of respect for Ashbury and Krew… That was some immature shit they pulled..Very unprofessional.. This whole thing kinda bums me out. Can’t we all just get along?
November 14th, 2009 at 6:49 pm
99
November 14th, 2009 at 6:49 pm
100, sorry i cheated.. but i had to do it
November 14th, 2009 at 7:07 pm
i think people need to understand that just because someone leave a company doesn’t mean they are going for shock value, Kr3w is a dope brand with good cred for awhile now. Why not be apart of something new and fresh (snow team). Especially when some of your OTHER good friends are such apart of it. i dont think this was ever meant to be a diss until peeps got the impression it was. although im quite enjoying this. its a little over the top. getting paid to do something you love by a DOPE brand is never a bad thing,
REAL TALK
November 14th, 2009 at 7:08 pm
KR3W (backwards E)
SNOW (backwards N)
both 4 letter words, theme no? not necessarily a direct diss
November 14th, 2009 at 10:05 pm
this is ridiculous. these hate comments are causing a lot of heat that doesn’t need to be.
November 14th, 2009 at 10:56 pm
FIRST
November 14th, 2009 at 11:15 pm
if you aint being hated on, you aint doin shit. -ghost face killah
Kr3w is doin it
November 15th, 2009 at 8:42 am
bottom line tho, comune is way sicker than krew, no matter what.
November 15th, 2009 at 12:16 pm
It was a diss when they put a backwards N in “Snow”. it was like yea we stole your riders, fuck you comune… Super weak..
Someones gonna get hurt I feel…
November 15th, 2009 at 12:39 pm
Bottom line, this is making everyone look stupid and immature. Both companies are sick, and riders on both teams are sick. Who cares who said what….putting a backwards N in a video isnt going to put anybody out of biz and stealing riders or losing riders or whatever, happens every day in this crazy industry. I personally find all this funny from both “sides” or whatever. This is snowboarding………..its not serious……or at least it shouldnt be.
November 15th, 2009 at 1:17 pm
To me, this looks like a simple case of people on all sides kinda getting their shit in a twist over some stuff that is probably an equal mix of intentional and coincidental. I don’t follow snowboarding to the extent that I could compare teams, but I do know that a pissing match between two companies who both possess undeniable potential (COMUNE) & success (KR3W) is irrelevant to anything that either of these two companies actually do. And anyone beyond the snowboarding community, of which there are many, won’t be swayed to or from either brand because of their team’s roster, this video, or any of these comments (including this one).
Throwing COMUNE under the bus because of their having a name similar to a variety of other companies is a pretty inadequate claim. The fact is, for anyone who does not understand the copyrighting system or process, that due to constraints of language, it is entirely legal for multiple entities to use the same name as long as they only use it within industries and regions for which they have bought the rights. So, if anyone wants to hold a grudge against the label, it’s simply because they don’t like it, but not because they have some moral outrage of how they came to be.
I don’t personally wear KR3W, but I know the brand well enough to appreciate its take on being a lifestyle brand with abilities to maintain its direct ties into hip-hop and skate culture. Most action sports labels give me idiot shivers when i see the base of their clientele, however KR3W has somehow managed to keep itself centralized. This does not make them a fashion label however, which is the primary difference between the two companies.
If KR3W wants to expand its snowboard team by any possible means, being that they are a larger, more established company with wider distribution and deeper pockets, then so be it. It’s the name of the game. Stylizing a video to look anything like a COMUNE finished product, which coincidentally is focusing on riders who were just recently on COMUNE’s team is more of an embarrassment than a diss. And for a bunch of doodz who are mentioned as sitting around all day, snorting cocaine and shooting heroine, they are, right out of the gate, producing an impeccably advanced line that only seems to be growing, not for its hype, but for its quality and style.
November 15th, 2009 at 1:17 pm
Angel,
Supra is not your trademark. males in their teens and twenties are quite attentive to brands as it is common for people in this age bracket to try to fit in amongst their peers by wearing a particularly popular brand, such as “SUPRA FOOTWEAR” & Device. In addition, the Applicant’s intended consumers are those athletes interested in riding skateboards. These consumers not only purchase the Applicant’s products in order to fit in with their peers, but also for the improve skateboard riding performance, which the Applicant’s products provide. Skateboarding males are very highly sophisticated when it comes to purchasing equipment and apparel. My name is Angel I am a long hair cabrona.
November 15th, 2009 at 1:20 pm
Die slow motherfucker, my 44 make sure all yo kids don’t grow.
November 15th, 2009 at 5:17 pm
This is fun
November 15th, 2009 at 9:54 pm
Is anyone else familiar with the term “postmodernism”? Everything is a contradiction and everything has been done before. There’s no need to burden yourselves with the question of “who is the real OG”, because the answer is no one. Just relax and enjoy some art and culture from our friends over at Comune, Ashbury, and Krew. It’s all just entertainment anyhow.
November 15th, 2009 at 11:53 pm
hate’n ashbury. get your krew of pinkos together and come shred with uncut men at the commune.
November 17th, 2009 at 11:34 am
[...] a post on the Ashbury Eyewear site featuring Kr3w’s new snowboard team started a blazing 114 comment flame war between people [...]
November 17th, 2009 at 12:04 pm
You guys should all get together at SIA and have a big sissy fight rumble. Last bitch standing wins!
With so many wack companies in this industry, you guys gotta fuck with each other? Come on.
November 17th, 2009 at 5:38 pm
comune’s sold in the buckle along with tapout, ed hardy, and affliction. word.

Doesn’t everyone have better things to do? Especially the comune guys, aren’t you guys like 35? Go start a family, not worry about this shit.

COMUNE is the shit, snowboarders who put snowboarding, and the people and lifestyle that goes with it first, trying to break the mold of what snowboarding is percieved as at the moment. Krew was exactly that to skateboarding a few years ago. Think of snowboarding a few years back. hands down most kids would have scoffed at a company like ashbury and wathed that FODT video again.
At least krew didnt sponsor jeremy and jp or mfm….
Corey Smith was one of the first guys snowboarding in jeans, along with whitlake and luke macmaster, and one of the first to realise you didnt have to pose in front of a tagged up dumpster to make some shit happen. He made a lot of people realise that you didnt have to be THAT into hip hop, that if you were an artist then fuck it, do that too. If you preferred the stones to the wu then that was cool. anyone who would support ashbury should support that, and not go flaring up on a comments page about who is ripping off who.
the fact that riders switched is hardly an issue. think of Leo Romero, foundation, Baker and now Toy machine? all without even a full video part? koston? es, lakai and now nike… people switch for paychecks all the time, if any of you kids had the choice you would too.
Whatever, Krew chose a banging team. comune chose it first.
