ok first of all,

WHAAAT?!?! are they putting these out? old school big zigs???
second thing:

WHAAAA?!?!?! This. Is. Hilarious. I love Paris for doing this. I find it to be the funniest thing ever. Also, isnt "louie" with an "s"?? anyway, i think that the fact that they acknowledge their weakness is hilarious as well as "PRANDALS!!!" lolol!!!

DISCUSS!
this edition was strange.

I've decided to wait until my issue comes, rather then download it, to make it more fun. But that was ####### awesome. So awesome haha. Especially 'Mile High Skates won't carry em.'

got it. that's cool to know. didn't know that.

**frankie18** · 03-17-2010 07:53 AM

its mostly because MHM prefers quality, well made American (or non Chinese) products. #### China! Go MHM!

its such an easy stance to take and say that all Chinese products is garbage.. but c'mon guys we all know that china does make some pretty damn good product (not just in skateboarding) and supporting American based companies & employees is not a bad thing!

Not to say that if a retailer wants only carry USA made products that its a bad thing either. Go For it!! In any industry, it's great to support local brands & companies!

but just so you know....
MHM does carry china manufactured products, he even puts his own name on it. 'Mile High Skates Bearings' !!!

The paris ad was awesome and hilarious!

**LDPanda** · 03-17-2010 12:14 PM

Abec11 used an old ad, they said so on the updates thread. MHM carries all sorts of products (including trucks) made outside the US and in China. Why he chooses not to carry Paris probably has to do with profit rather than principle.
