Let the 2018-2019 Staff Changes Begin
« on: May 30, 2018, 05:56:30 PM »
It's the time of year where we start hearing of some staff changes.  As of today, the most recent changes are:

- Shannon O'Keefe switched to Hammer/EBI (many of you already knew that)
- Bryanna Cote switched to Storm (was with Track/EBI)
- Gabriella Mayfield switched to Motiv (was with Brunswick/DV8)
- Natalie Goodman has joined Motiv (her fiance EJ Tackett of course is with Motiv)

As of the past 48 hours, the most recent change is:
- Connor Pickford has decided to leave Roto Grip (announced on his Facebook page)

In Connor's case, it makes me wonder if he's looking to head back to Motiv or if he'd be looking at EBI or Brunswick.  Only time will tell.

Considering Conor i think works for Dino here in one of his DFW shops, possibly an Ebonite/Hammer/Columbia signing.

Lol at Connor leaving Roto . . name me another company making/discontinuing (lol) better stuff across the board than Roto right now, I'll wait.  Not being a homer either, just some stupid good stuff they're doing over there at the moment.

IMO, everyone is making really good stuff right now, not just Storm/Roto.  It's just a matter of what you match up with.

Yeah everybody is making good stuff, I just happen to think Roto is at the top of the list at the moment.  They're kind of discontinuing most of their good stuff though . .  GB3 is stupid, nobody else has a Honey Badger, the Rip'd combo is very good, Brunswick's new Turmoils look good, Storm has their typical stuff, etc.  Just no one company has stuff like the Fused, Idol, and Ink under one name.

Roto Grip is amazing right now. Upset to see so many great balls being discontinued. Unless yhe Bowl Expo stuff is thst solid, this is probably the best chance for another company to take the throne.
