    Default CANDYSPANKS NEW NAME! (Yes its True!) RIP:Candyspanks

    For everyone in New England who owns a Candyspank I wouldn't throw it out just yet! I was recently on Facebook on Rus's Facebook page looking at his longboarding pictures and saw an album called New Shop! I clicked on it curious. What I saw was boards with the same candyspank design but with a really different logo and name! Is the end coming soon? I recently asked a friend who knows Rus and he says it will be pretty soon that the candyspanks company name will be droped for a new name. I couldn't tell you the new name because I was then kicked off Rus's friends list on Facebook after a few minutes withen entering that album. So keep your boards and ride them proud that you actually got one before they changed the name!

    R.I.P CANDYSPANKS!

    yea same well I doubt rus is gonna change his mind. Im just glad I can say " I have a Candyspanks!" Just to be apart of something that is a HUGE thing in the small town of bristol is cool. One of my friends said just yesterday i want a candyspanks. Told him today you better make some money fast before they sell out for good.

    rus's new boards are gunna be sweet, dont worry
    I totally agree. They will be good. I just hope its the best thing for the company and my wallet(freshman in high school can only make so much!) That brings up the question: "How much will these things flippen cost!?" I have a feeling their gonna be a little bit more then the boards now espescially if they have all new bells and whistles. But anyway my friends been telling me " o now the candyspanks boards will be worth alot!" I told him i doubt it. If Candyspanks I mean Clutch are alot better quality wise our boards arent worth crap! The only things its worthy of is a spot mounted on my wall with a plaque that says "A Failed Success" That brings up something I thought of last night. With the new boards coming out soon will candyspanks be forgotten? I thought to myself a way to put this : In a few years Candyspanks will be whats most movie gurus call a "Cult Classic", Only a minority of people actually give a damn about the boards. Also anyone else feel that with the new name Rus is gonna start selling them online? It sounds like hes going for a more modern name that would sell.

    Sorry for the long post!

    You are still on the list for one of the drop decks... are you looking for a different type of speedboard... i.e. Air-t-ca?

    Hey C4NDYSP4NKS I wouldn't count on Rus giving you any free stuff. Even if he wanted to he was probably to piss drunk when he wrote that to remember to give you anything. And yes I know the time stamp is at like 9 in the morning.

    On a side note, I wouldn't take anything from him if you didn't know him he's kinda crazy.
    He'll probably send me a six pack. Wonder if he knows I'm under age....

    Now I'm afraid to walk into the shop

    He'll probably just cut his board in half when the kid shows up.
