Flux Bindings Statement

So there's a lot of confusion and rumors flying around about what's going on with our team... and here's the real scoop:

We had to make some decisions this year that were really tough, we had built a really great team... but just weren't seeing a lot of them push for the brand. There were a lot of guys just collecting a paycheck and we had to make a choice to either let that continue or do something to change it.

As a lot of you may know we asked for your opinions on who was really pulling their weight as members of the Flux team and it matched up with what we saw from inside. So we made the difficult decision to remove some of the riders from salary and offer them photo incentive instead in hopes that they would see it as a wake-up call.

Unfortunately a few of those riders proved that they really were only in it for the $$ and immediately jumped ship and started trying to bash us for not supporting them!
It's funny because if they had put the kind of effort into supporting and promoting Flux as they are putting into trying to bash us now... they never would have been in the position to begin with!!!!

We wish everyone the best of luck and it's unfortunate the way things had to go down.
For 06/07 you can still look forward to seeing these guys returning and supporting Flux:

Matt Hammer
Nima Jalali
Corey Smith
Laura Hadar
Scott Blum
Pat Milbery
Tyler Flanagan

And you can also look forward to a few other big names who believe that we make some of the sickest most comfortable bindings out there joining the team.

Stop using me to make more money!

Dear Flux,
Take me off your god awful website!
Not sincerely,
Robbie Sell

Wouldn't it be cool if Flux gave all the royalties I would have collected off my tetris design model to charity. I doubt they would though, they'll just put those few thousand dollars into their own pockets. Too bad, they had such potential. Barneys.

fucking embarrasing

Flux, you guys are idiots. what was Robbie supposed to do? tattoo Flux on his forhead?

I would say you are digging a bigger hole by putting out this ridiculous press release, and i look forward to your company tanking and your carmate shareholders getting out of snowboarding.

fools

all could've been avoided

The answer is photo incentive. oh, and some respect

Atta boy. worst press re

Atta boy.

worst press release - ever.

Not a press release????

That was just taken off the Flux myspace site... I don't think it's an actual press release because no other mags posted anything? I'm pretty sure it was just taken from the myspace blog on the Flux page.
