Rob Wise Off Volume; On GT.


When I saw this mentioned on Twitter I thought “yeah right”, but it’s true. Here’s Volume’s statement:

“Rob is leaving Volume and on to greener pastures over at GT. We’re definitely bummed to lose one of our heavy hitters and good friend. Everyone here at Volume is happy for Rob and the opportunities that lie ahead for him. Rob will still be with our sister company over at Demolition and continue to kill himself for the upcoming DVD, Last Chance. He’s out but… not really.”

Sure Volume may have more street cred than GT, but I reached out to Rob earlier today and was actually able to get a statement from him regarding this exciting new sponsor change, click here for his statement.

    I heard from a GT rider that they were cutting the freestlye team….weird….but either way I’m surprised that GT is paying another freestlye rider since they can’t pay any of the ones already on the team except Dillsy. Shits weak!

    I think what B.C means is that once GT goes bankrupt or decides to dump its money into more MTN. Bikes and shit,he’s always welcome back to Volume if shit goes wack. I dunno though,riding for GT your among names like Eddie Fiola and Dave Volker. Good for Rob,stoked on seeing the new Demolition video. (you should add the first one as a bonus)

    good for rob, more money to him, and for the haters jajajajaj baaa, he is going to win triple of the money you never are going to have, and its because he rides a bike jajajajaj . And gt is a legendary comp. props to him

  • http://Website due

    i use to ride a gt way back in the day.

  • http://Website sweet butt billy

    rob is not PG enough for GT

  • http://Website TM01!

    rob wise is a fucking sellout, you leave s&m, mirraco. doesn’t pay you enough? volume not enough money there, next he’ll leave gt for huffy

  • http://dreyteam.blogspot.com pawelb

    i think its because the droputs on his frame were so thin they cracked from him just looking at them and that those frames proally cracked each time he stepped on it,,,cant break a GT however haha!

  • http://www.haha.org Pusher Robot

    wow, what a sellout. rob used to be one of my favorite riders and i loved seeing him ride for a core company. now i am going to find it hard to look at him the same. volume should be happy he is gone, the dude seems to jump ship pretty easily. I can’t believe he did the same shit to s&m and mirraco. no loyalty 4tl.

  • http://www.haha.org true story

    hahahahaha no shit! volume makes such junk frames that they break just from riding off curbs. i bet he left because of the poor quality of the frames.

  • http://Website Jered

    TM01!, You dont know shit about shit and when I see you again and you know I will Im knocking you the fuck out. That’s a fucking promise. Your a fucking joke.

  • http://Website Toad

    Who cares if he has moved on for more money. He will still ride the same. Maybe GT will do him some sig shit. I thought that Giant restarting their team was a bad idea but they’ve stepped their shit up

  • http://www.haha.org John Slate

    i broke 2 rob wise frames and i suck at riding. first one cracked where the holes are. the second one cracked on the grenade at the brace. they need to hire better frame makers or something.

  • http://Website JB

    Hahaha, I would pay you 500,00 cash to say that to Rob’s face. JB

  • http://Website bipple

    rob is pretty good friends with the current TM of the gt freestyle team. i’m guessing that has something to do with it. give GT a chance, they wanna do good things for their riders and make good products. with all the capital that they have being such a big company, theres a lot of opportunities to produce good shit. but please GT, stop paying Justin Kosman to film your stuff.

  • http://Website Christian Rigal

    I love the people hating on Rob for this. Dude was working construction everyday just to pay the bills and now he can actually ride all the time. Good for him. Congrats Rob!

  • http://Website alfredomancuso

    Yea, its gonna be the Bonus BONUS sections haha

  • http://Website alfredomancuso

    What Christian said! Plus its not as if he left on bad terms. He’s still on demolition, will still be the same bit of MACHINE that he is, and will now be able to afford his BMW’s murdered out straight off the show room floor!

  • http://Website brownieman

    rob was a roofer. not easy work and he doesn’t have to do it anymore. most people would ride for polesmoker bikes to not have to do roofs.

  • http://Website bill

    Volume seems like the company riders use to get free parts for a while until something better comes along. Ask me how I know? Cuz I did the same thing to them and same with some friends of mine. Niggas got to come up son!

  • http://www.haha.org Smart

    Rob isnt the smartest guy out there. In fact having a conversation with him is about as exciting as talking to a rock. He is a shredder though. Who cares who he rides for?
