I just heard from a very RELIABLE source that Mickey Mouse just bought both O'brien and Liquid Force and plans to even buy Hyperlite!!!!!

Seriously guys, it seems that everyone has a reliable source and that everyone knows whats going to happen. Its only the second day, and I've already heard that Nike or GB boards are going to already buy the molds. That doesn't seem plausible after only the second day. Neptune had the same thing happen to them (thanks to NIKE) and the molds were not sold off the second day. Straightline was bought out and reemerged with solid financial backing and are back in full swing. IN fact they just recently got rid of their molds over seas after losing their financing two years ago.

Guess what I'm trying to say is that yeah everyone is entitled to imagine what will happen but until you know for sure whats goin down keep it to yourself. In about a week or a few months we'll all look back at this and see who the gossip mongers are and see how totally wrong they were.

hey h20 slider. i'm assuming your paul pierce and i was wondering if you knew who bought the neptune molds and if they plan on making boards any time in the futre. my buddy gabe lucas(pretty sure you know him) wreckd both of his boards last time we went out on and he seemed kinda bummed about it. i'm sure he'd really like to get one of those boards, he's always talking about how he loves those shapes (the old abyss 138 or the rally 142- the pruple and orange one).

The molds were sold over seas in China and i'm not sure if the company that bought them plan on producing boards.

They can retool the molds to make other things. All the molds are are big chunks of aluminum.
