Thank you for pointing this out. I was really wondering. I had been watching braille for a long time and never seen them once, ever. Ive been watching from a month or so before lance joined up.
I heard Lance left to work with his brother in a different state. As for Mogley, I've seen him skating with the Powell Peralta guys on Dan Corrigan's channel. Seems like a good fit. There is a girl called Emma on Braille, not sure if she was part of the team, but she did some videos several years ago. She left to study in university in a different city, but she still skates, and she seems really nice on IG at least.
There’s a huge slap magazine forum with proof that lance was ranking up in Scientology directly after leaving braille, he just does e meters at the church now
@@theoutsiderjess1869 yea i beleive he was found innocent of the pedo stuff. He was never charged. If i remember correctly there were texts found proving that she lied about her age. But who knows for sure.
@@LeSkateWA Aussie Dan ended up editing for Braille from home. They mentioned his name a few times. Im not sure now though. Mario never heard of him. Troy, I'm not sure but I feel his wife made him leave. Something about her I didn't like
@@victoriousgangster Sounds about right, Dan just editing on the side. Mario probably just moved on. Troy probably the same with wife/family. She seemed cool like one of the guys lol but yeah I can see that.
Time sure flies. I used to skate from 1997-2006. In 2016 I came across Braille and really got hooked on their content. So much, that it inspired me to dabble in skateboarding again for a bit (at the age or 30 at that time). I watch their videos once in a while now, but back then I used to watch almost every video they released. Lance was still on the channel and Gabe was still a little kid that was tagging along with them.
I stopped watching it after lance left. Braille just got too big and weird. After the warehouse came they got too kiddy for me but I’m obvs too old for their audience. Rip lance
I cant fucking stand the guy. He is so annoying behind the camera, always screaming at the top of his lungs like a little child. Im sure more people would watch the channel, even the lame shit if it was not for him.
Gabe comes off as a high school PE coach that wants to be friends with his students but secretly places money bets with other teachers on which kid will run a lap the fastest. Started out as a skater but saw dollar signs and kinda switched up. Now days he's just a golfer who can do a varial flip and repeats videos.
@@turbocateyeS475Definitely glad I’m not the only one who thinks that. The quality of the ideas for videos has significantly dropped in the last year or so and it just feels like it has Gabe written all over it. I think he wanted to become more of a skater in the videos, and that’s why they brought in that new camera guy who couldn’t even stand on a skateboard let alone be called a skater, but he hasn’t been around at all lately, so I’m thinking they got rid of him, and Gabe just accepted his place behind the camera but still wants the same creative control as all the skaters in the video and has just forced himself into the crew. Seeing him constantly do varial flips in those skin tight black pants and shirts is 100% like seeing your buddy who ‘used to skate’ but only plays golf and works out now try and show the boys he can still hang lol… it is kinda cringey.
mo been genuine since the beggining, reads all his comments and thanks everyone he can, literally one of the most genuine dudes, hope nothin but the best for him
after the whole fetty deal happened, there was a video of fetty skating at Braille after the fact when braille went to 2.0. It was a clip of him olliing off the 3block and saying, i miss this. None of us know the backstory or if Fetty even wanted to go back.
Jd Sanchez low-key carrying braille rn Edit: why does everyone hate braille so much rn, I know they’re not what they used to be but fr its not that bad
A lot of people aren’t taking into account that most these guys all started working at Braille when they were young. It’s a massively common thing to have burn out with a job when you’re that young and not used to doing the same thing in the same place day after day. Eventually you quit to go do something else. It’s a totally normal and common part of life no matter what the job is.
So you’re thumbnail is saying lance is in a cult ? But then you show the clip of him saying he got a job in something else far away and you say it’s not confirmed if it’s Scientology or not ? It’s very misleading information.
Also this is my alt, but I used to raid Mcnugg on Twitch after my stream and he even offered to let me come to the Braille house sometime. Butttt he also did a stream where he said that he wasn’t featured in Ricky, Mogely, Uzi’s videos during the braille first try tour and even Ricky never laughed at any of his jokes. Basically saying he didn’t feel welcomed there and He only liked Aaron, Nigel, Gabe and JD. Sorry if this is random, but I thought I would mention this since I used to watch them all daily and knew some info.
@@FlipFlopMop I don't think the videos give any kind of honest perspective on any of them leaving though. Obviously it is never put in any video directly. Even Nigel seems to avoid explaining why he left Braille and now only does cameos every now and then. It's simply not in the videos. Yeah, there's some vague shit about him having to travel a long distance and wanting to put time into his own things. But had Braille been a good deal, he probably wouldn't have left.
It felt like uzi and fetty were rly good friends and content with those 2 was always fun and felt fluid, but when fetty left i feel like uzi didnt click with anyone like that in braille anymore
@@doodliedie I actually think he was very close with the crew. I think he was like that because who would be happy at work when your struggling in real life with the pay being one of the faces of the braille but the while braille is making big money. Its just that majority of that money went to a fking cult
Ricky had mentioned in a video/live stream what had happened to Mcnugg it sounds like it had to do with a money situation and mcnugg had to get a second job to pay whoever back. And the way Mcnugg explained it one time on his last stream on twitch was he had a house to himself in which Ricky aussie dan and him were sharing but them two left so I believe it forced him to work at the other job more and he had said he wouldn't be in the videos as much as he wants to but will still pop up here and there. Braille has also said he had taken time off but he is more than welcomed back whenever he is ready
Doesn't really explain why he went ghost on all of his personal accounts though? It's strange behavior for someone to stop cold turkey with no update after having built a following which takes a lot of time and effort.
One thing that bothers me about your videos where you talk about Fetty is saying "found innocent". Courts/the law don't find people innocent, people are acquitted when there isn't enough evidence to prosecute them but they don't determine if these people are innocent and it certainly doesn't mean they are. Fetty is sus as hell in my personal opinion and I do think he knew what he was doing. When Braille is working with kids they cannot bring somebody like Fetty back around after a scandal like that whether or not he was prosecuted, imagine the liability not to mention the ethics in doing so.
In the courts it is innocent until proven guilty so you could look at it like they found him innocent or like they didn't have enough evidence to take it to trial. Either way it shows there was a lack of evidence he went into the relationship knowing she was underage and there really isn't a way to prove if or when he knew she was. To be completely real, the girl didn't look older than like 15 and there has to be giveaways, no 14 yr old can keep up the act for very long without slipping and not to be super weird or anything, I just remember being a teenager, teenage bodies don't look like adult bodies. But Fetty came across as slower than someone his age should be, like maybe he's a few crayons short of a whole box. So maybe he really didn't know. His situation does make sense why he disappeared without a video. There was atleast proof he hung out with a kid outside of work and you can't have that at a place where you teach kids.
Troy is the only scientologist that legit seems like a cool laid back dude. Always good vibes. Troy is back in Hawaii now and i think Aussie Dan still edits some of the videos, he just is back in Australia. He posts on Reddit some
Didn't seem like you did all that much research. Braille was always a content machine, daily videos on their main channel and regular videos on their second... It's interesting that you talk about how Fetty got a rough ride and had his reputation ruined, yet had a click bait thumbnail on your video about him, potentially adding to the problem. Then echoing rumours about Chris Mc Nugget when you yourself said you don't know the truth of any of them. I feel you're making videos on Braille more for the views they attract then anything else... Crossed the line with your beef with Ricky. Just riding the coat tails of a much larger channel for views.
Okay he did do a good bit of research and it's here before your eyes if you want to veto everything go ahead but I think bro does nothing but manipulation.
Kelly and Luke are best friends doing their RUclips stuff together. I watch their stuff here and there and so impressed. They have strong heads. They absorbed the knowledge gained from braille and left the nest. That's what all kids do or should do at one point in their lives.
late to the video, but was a long time hardcore fan of braille, things make some sense now. In the case of lance from what i remember is that he was going to work for his brother as salesman or something- that was sad at the time, because he was the poster child of progress under aaron - i was 27 when i discovered braille, it was aw inspiring (plus was the camera man for me - Gabe, even though he does it longer technicality, was never lance- like you said, he felt "forced"). For Kelly and luke ( a duo ), they kind of just passed it off as "they are going to college" - and even gave shout outs to their channel, and they'd reappear around holidays...but did stop. Fetty, from what i really remember is that, they really really really amped up his whole relationship with his fiance at the time - whole episodes just on his tattoos and their meaning to this girl. Then news comes out he's cheating on her with a fan, who is also a minor. 2 major strikes - that's amplified by fan service for "character development". Carlos, i could never really find any answers to, just maybe overworked at braille / health decline at the time (face eczema all the time. Did all the craziest tricks in the house (HE would EAT SHIT OVER and OVER and OVER just to land A trick "proper" ), plus did lessons)...fucking god damn it, that was heartbreaking to hear why...i was a legit fan of his, that sucks. Then there's McNugget i always felt like he was underutilized - always a guest, never a memeber. At least when i stopped watching, which was after carlos left, and then the fetty thing happened. kind of watched episodes here and there, but the team never felt the same - and he still wasn't a member by the time i stopped watching, just heard news that he got signed with 3 block ( same team as carlos / side brand of revive).
1:51 a part of me wants to say he became a photographer…about a year after he left I came across a video where he was being interviewed by this other photographer
Those early clips man, it's why I started watching. So fucking wholesome and inspiring to both old and young skaters alike. It's so sad to see what has become of Braille.
Dude you need to put a more effort into your ‘reporting’, just watching a video for the first time then commenting on it is not useful to anyone. Lance did not leave for a job opportunity or a girlfriend as braille claimed he did, lance is in Scientology and left because he went to Clearwater for training.
What about Justin Soria or Doug Des Autels? Weren't they official members of Braille at one point? Also, I know this video is slightly old, but Gabe also left and JD did too.
@@JustinSoriaSkate Have you shared your story of leaving Braille? If not, would you want to share it? Also, I have watched Braille videos for a while, off and on, so that's how I know you. I'm no one special other than a long-time viewer. Thanks for the reply, by the way 🙂
@@1upmushroom13 yeah man it’s kinda a long story. I mentioned some of it in another comment section a few days ago to somebody else. If you wanna hear more lemme know and I’ll explain later just busy right now (sleeping , it’s 3:30 am just woke up and read this lol)
this is the 2nd video of your ive watched, both for the same topic, but when you said a lot of ur viewers were idiots i fell in love lmao. i dont subscribe a lot but you obviously real and dont give a fuk and say what you mean and i respect that, its rare nowadays
It's funny you are talking about predators while wearing a motley crue hoodie who are known predators also. "She's only fifteen" is proof this was only a badge of honor to them.
Hey man I forget the Asian filters name but I’d love to figure out why he left, I actually have some DMs with McNugget regarding why some of the filters never got an origin video
@@RespondsToOnlyLosers The beginnings of Braille and it's mission are great! I still back it but not as much as I used to since the Braillehouse got torn down...
I never really understood the hate on Gabe. Gabe pours his heart and soul into Braille. He’s one of the only reasons the channel is still alive. You can tell dude tries everything to put content out. It’s not always the best content but atleast he tries when everybody else seems to have kind of given up. I have nothing but mad respect for him for sure.
Same, and it's not like he's particularly "fake" either. Like I'm sure he turns up the energy a bit for the sake of the cameras but most of the time he's just hanging around suggesting tricks and making dad jokes, what else do people want from a filmer?
He just seems annoying and insecure, it’s clear Braille has gave him some sort of purpose but along with that is clearly a big ego which makes him come across very unlikeable.
@@imusic1006 what gives you that impression? He treats everybody on the team with respect and he always makes sure to involve everybody and their ideas. And I’ve personally talked to him a couple of times and he’s never come across as egotistical. The only reasonable complaint I’ve seen about him is how over hype he is about everything, but you can’t exactly blame him when everybody else on the channel has the emotions of a robot.
For me i cant stand all his childish yelling and screaming from behind the camera. It is so damned annoying. I wish the dude would just shut the fuck up sometimes.
I got hooked on Braille videos mainly because of Lance's progression. I got so inspired that I started skating again after over 20 years at the age of 35. I never got as good as Lance eventually got, but I kept watching and skating until the lockdowns happened. It pains me to see what's happened to what was once a great, positive and wholesome channel and crew. I fn h8 Sci_tology so much!!!
Bruh idk what happened and im not hating but you come across as kinda salty in this video. You also missed several things. Ill go from the beginning. Lance is 100% a scientologist, he has donated a decent amount to them and known Aaron's wife longer than aaron has, thru Scientology. He also did a video on his dads channel a year or two after he left, talking about youtube in general. I dont know if Kelly and Luke were ever officially paid like the actual team but they both left to go to college and moved out of state. They have appeared in videos since. Fetty situation you got right. But he does still skate and films some of Uzis insta clips. Carlos did get a goodbye video on braille, which is partially why Nigel said they did fetty so dirty, besides letting carlos appear in other videos. There IS statute of limitations on SA in Cali but its either 40 years if theyre a minor or 10 if theyre an adult. McNugg is a douche but he didnt sleep with anyones girl. He ran up a debt somehow in Rickys name and aarons or owed aaron too. Doesnt make a ton of sense how but he has apparently paid it back. But when he got caught he disappeared. Hes not the type of person to get paid for skating and get his name on a board and just dip out unless something went down. Mario I think left for school or a job and Troy went back to Hawaii. Troy and his wife are also scientologist along with 95% of the people who run braille, like Chloe and the ones who handle behind the scenes stuff. Anyone else who appeared then didnt werent actual employees. Aaron knew about what carlos did for awhile, apparently since the all terrain tour and did nothing. Information is really easy to get about most of this stuff. Also mogley is just a die hard skater and i think knew he wouldnt get ahead with the internet viewing him as a youtube/braille guy. People view bryan Arnett, chris hiett, zach doelling differently than braille even tho they both make youtube vids. And mogley knows that. Plus hes a father and was traveling alot to work there. One weird thing is if a pro skater works for the company they skate for, if they leave that job theyre still pro for said company. But mogley left braille the job and they took away his pro board. Their version of pro is different obviously and doesnt really mean the same but its still weird af.
To Mogley losing his Pro Deck, that was because Mogley got other endorsment offers and given he wasnt going to be on the team anymore, joining other teams would make more sense for him businesswise.
@@Chrisisplays I feel that. PS stix decks are pretty good but Braille graphics are clearly for children. Mogley on Powell makes sense. But I just want to see him succeed regardless of where. He's a real deal skater and to still be so committed at his age, with a kid, and to still be progressing... He deserves all the success that comes. Glad he realized his dreams couldn't be achieved where he was and made the move
It's amazing how this comment was made to sound so insulting and demeaning when realistically he's just pointing out the manipulation of Braille because Aaron himself will not address some things.. but I get it you're willing to stand up for this company all because you like watching their videos? Huh if only Hitler made youtube videos for you to watch.
Wtf...! So because Carlos was being more genuine about what he did, you making him sound worse than Fetty? Bro!! Fetty actually slept multiple times with a 14 year old girl when he was 26, even after the girl told him her real age. Carlos did wrong too, but not to that extent of sxe with a minor, and Fetty denies everything. So what?! If Carlos denies everything, then his good? All the accusations are not true? Come on, you're so fake for cloud.
@Danwebz The victim girl literally posted a video confessing everything that happened with fetty, including where she lied about her age in the beginning. Is in the youtube channel "RUclipsrs Exposed"
Did you ever talk about why or how Mario left, I’m not sure what actually happened to him or why he stopped showing up, granted I’m not sure if he still makes appearances since I don’t watch Braille like I use too but I feel like could be someone you can probably talk about if there’s enough information about him good or bad?!
If I remember correctly Luke and Kelly were interns. Idk when that ended specifically I remember watching a video where Aaron Gabe and Kelly had mentioned it but nothing was mentioned about it afterward
When you said old braille used to be great but then Gabe... Yea... I felt that. I literally stopped watching because of Gabe. He just annoyed the piss outta me.
You are exactly right about padding videos and making them waay longer then they need to be. It makes them hard to watch, even though i really do want to see the whole thing.
I remember vaguely Kelly explaining his goals and how he wanted to explore life himself with Luke. It’s not really about anything dramatic with them and braille because they were close but not really featured that much on the channel. Both Kelly and Luke grew up with them and worked with them I believe. I just think their relationship is wholesome and good. Don’t quote me 100% been following all these guys for a while so this is all just from memory
I like you DW but you are starting to lean into the drama of other men in the skate industry. Where Im from, calling someone out of their name on something so serious as SO without having actual evidence on the topic is false jacketing and will get you X'd out. No saying the skate industry is about that because it definitely is not, especially the YT side of skating, but its still whack AF. Imagine evidence coming back proving him not guilty or Nigel was just projecting and gets caught up in some stuff jn the furture... You would look like a dork.
The whole fetty situation i knew from the start he was innocent. Woman like to lie to try and get what they want and in this case fetty worked for a big youtube channel so money. It happens very often to men being accused of something they didnt do and serving time. Braille is a bunch of scum bags for the way they approached the situation. They should of been defending fetty if they were hia friends and trusted him
I wonder if Kyro hadn't donated so much money to Scientology, and instead put it into the business & it's employees, if it could have been huge - in the same fashion as something like Barstool which was started from nothing, by a few friends. Now Braille is all but done, and the real winner was the "Church" of Scientology...
Man, people are insanely busy. I don’t know if it’s best practice to be insinuating Ricky doesn’t have good energy and say you can’t deal with that just because they didn’t reply to some instagram dms in a timely manner. Dude probably gets a lot of DMs. Maybe there’s more to it, but that seems like a weird little jab that could lead to more drama. Probably not because Ricky seems pretty low key but still felt a little unnecessary and spiteful. Love your channel and watch everyday, so hopefully you take this comment in good faith.
Hella salty fanboy attitude to getting left on read. Ricky seems chill. Really seems like Dan thought he'd be given exclusives with Nigel and Aaron and Ricky or something and didn't so now he's gonna tear them down. This is legit the origin of Chadd Sinclairs war with Braille lol
You guys are both delusional.. but Ricky did do a podcast where he said himself that Ricky HIMSELF was being sensitive. Just like both of you, Enjoy your cringe comments.
Is that a non sus way of saying you think he's handsome? He wasn't ever a paid team member tho. Pretty decent on a board but I'm guessing him and a few of the other young dudes finally got licenses and found girls lol
If there are any accusations about SA and the person gets acquitted you still shouldn’t have them on your team. There just wasn’t enough evidence to prove guilty and it’s a horrible look for you to keep them around. Pedos don’t deserve a second chance
Whenever SA or anything criminal happens in a company they always just block out that person. Look at WWE. Chris Benoit, Brock Lesnar, even Chyna is just now able to be seen and she didn’t even do anything but have sex on a camera. But braille is made for literal children and they need to black out any sign of toxicity so they don’t look bad

He got arrested for being a pedo dude!!! Can't you see how creepy they all are yet?
A lot of people aren’t taking into account that most these guys all started working at Braille when they were young. It’s a massively common thing to have burn out with a job when you’re that young and not used to doing the same thing in the same place day after day. Eventually you quit to go do something else. It’s a totally normal and common part of life no matter what the job is.
Are you really continuing to condone the creepy stuff Braille and revive does
So you’re thumbnail is saying lance is in a cult ? But then you show the clip of him saying he got a job in something else far away and you say it’s not confirmed if it’s Scientology or not ? It’s very misleading information.
maybe that's why its "cult?" not "cult"
Lance is now confirmed a scientologist
He is in the cult tho
you dont need 2 cameras dude
Lmaoo Frs
At least homie finally bought a mic stand😂
It keeps people's attention.
True, you need at least 3 or 4 cameras! 🙄
it is kinda funny it adds to the chaos 😂🎉
Random, but Aaron also stated that Lance “met a girl” in a way older video. So idk how much influence that had on him departing.
Also this is my alt, but I used to raid Mcnugg on Twitch after my stream and he even offered to let me come to the Braille house sometime. Butttt he also did a stream where he said that he wasn’t featured in Ricky, Mogely, Uzi’s videos during the braille first try tour and even Ricky never laughed at any of his jokes. Basically saying he didn’t feel welcomed there and He only liked Aaron, Nigel, Gabe and JD. Sorry if this is random, but I thought I would mention this since I used to watch them all daily and knew some info.
@@FlipFlopMop I don't think the videos give any kind of honest perspective on any of them leaving though. Obviously it is never put in any video directly. Even Nigel seems to avoid explaining why he left Braille and now only does cameos every now and then. It's simply not in the videos. Yeah, there's some vague shit about him having to travel a long distance and wanting to put time into his own things. But had Braille been a good deal, he probably wouldn't have left.
what happened with Justin Soria??
Lmfao you changed the thumbnail on that carlos video im dead 😂 i dont blame you that thumbnail did go a lil hard😅
add in gabe and UZI. they didnt even make a video about uzi
uzi is a useless burnout
@@nickwallenda768 I like Uzi, he's chill, unique, just skates for fun which is what it's supposed to be all about!
It felt like uzi and fetty were rly good friends and content with those 2 was always fun and felt fluid, but when fetty left i feel like uzi didnt click with anyone like that in braille anymore
@@doodliedie I actually think he was very close with the crew. I think he was like that because who would be happy at work when your struggling in real life with the pay being one of the faces of the braille but the while braille is making big money. Its just that majority of that money went to a fking cult
Ricky had mentioned in a video/live stream what had happened to Mcnugg it sounds like it had to do with a money situation and mcnugg had to get a second job to pay whoever back. And the way Mcnugg explained it one time on his last stream on twitch was he had a house to himself in which Ricky aussie dan and him were sharing but them two left so I believe it forced him to work at the other job more and he had said he wouldn't be in the videos as much as he wants to but will still pop up here and there. Braille has also said he had taken time off but he is more than welcomed back whenever he is ready
Doesn't really explain why he went ghost on all of his personal accounts though? It's strange behavior for someone to stop cold turkey with no update after having built a following which takes a lot of time and effort.
Kelly and Luke left when they started college. Both went to school in NYC. And they seemed to be doing pretty damn well
One thing that bothers me about your videos where you talk about Fetty is saying "found innocent". Courts/the law don't find people innocent, people are acquitted when there isn't enough evidence to prosecute them but they don't determine if these people are innocent and it certainly doesn't mean they are. Fetty is sus as hell in my personal opinion and I do think he knew what he was doing. When Braille is working with kids they cannot bring somebody like Fetty back around after a scandal like that whether or not he was prosecuted, imagine the liability not to mention the ethics in doing so.
Is That You, E.Jean Carroll? 🤔
Forreal, like even if she lied he wouldve known he's hanging out with a 14 year old by all her behaviours after surely
In the courts it is innocent until proven guilty so you could look at it like they found him innocent or like they didn't have enough evidence to take it to trial. Either way it shows there was a lack of evidence he went into the relationship knowing she was underage and there really isn't a way to prove if or when he knew she was. To be completely real, the girl didn't look older than like 15 and there has to be giveaways, no 14 yr old can keep up the act for very long without slipping and not to be super weird or anything, I just remember being a teenager, teenage bodies don't look like adult bodies. But Fetty came across as slower than someone his age should be, like maybe he's a few crayons short of a whole box. So maybe he really didn't know. His situation does make sense why he disappeared without a video. There was atleast proof he hung out with a kid outside of work and you can't have that at a place where you teach kids.
There is no legal “innocence”. You are found either guilty or not guilty
@@jarslbergcheese4369100% dude. Mental maturity is so obvious
Troy was super cool guy
bro Troy ad Aussie Dan I miss so much they were so genuine
What about Mario??
Troy is the only scientologist that legit seems like a cool laid back dude. Always good vibes. Troy is back in Hawaii now and i think Aussie Dan still edits some of the videos, he just is back in Australia. He posts on Reddit some
Chee-o!
Mogley is so underrated
Was actually wondering about this stuff, thanks dude
Didn't seem like you did all that much research. Braille was always a content machine, daily videos on their main channel and regular videos on their second...
It's interesting that you talk about how Fetty got a rough ride and had his reputation ruined, yet had a click bait thumbnail on your video about him, potentially adding to the problem.
Then echoing rumours about Chris Mc Nugget when you yourself said you don't know the truth of any of them.
I feel you're making videos on Braille more for the views they attract then anything else... Crossed the line with your beef with Ricky.
Just riding the coat tails of a much larger channel for views.
Okay he did do a good bit of research and it's here before your eyes if you want to veto everything go ahead but I think bro does nothing but manipulation.
"these videos don't need to be 20 minutes long"
this one doesn't need to be 17 minutes. whos the clout goblin again?
The way they did Fetty was insane. The man went through hell, was innocent and then went through even worse hell. I was done with braille after that.
Kelly and Luke are best friends doing their RUclips stuff together. I watch their stuff here and there and so impressed. They have strong heads. They absorbed the knowledge gained from braille and left the nest. That's what all kids do or should do at one point in their lives.
I got around to watching this because Uzi just bounced as well.
A new low on that thumbnail😒
late to the video, but was a long time hardcore fan of braille, things make some sense now. In the case of lance from what i remember is that he was going to work for his brother as salesman or something- that was sad at the time, because he was the poster child of progress under aaron - i was 27 when i discovered braille, it was aw inspiring (plus was the camera man for me - Gabe, even though he does it longer technicality, was never lance- like you said, he felt "forced"). For Kelly and luke ( a duo ), they kind of just passed it off as "they are going to college" - and even gave shout outs to their channel, and they'd reappear around holidays...but did stop. Fetty, from what i really remember is that, they really really really amped up his whole relationship with his fiance at the time - whole episodes just on his tattoos and their meaning to this girl. Then news comes out he's cheating on her with a fan, who is also a minor. 2 major strikes - that's amplified by fan service for "character development". Carlos, i could never really find any answers to, just maybe overworked at braille / health decline at the time (face eczema all the time. Did all the craziest tricks in the house (HE would EAT SHIT OVER and OVER and OVER just to land A trick "proper" ), plus did lessons)...fucking god damn it, that was heartbreaking to hear why...i was a legit fan of his, that sucks. Then there's McNugget i always felt like he was underutilized - always a guest, never a memeber. At least when i stopped watching, which was after carlos left, and then the fetty thing happened. kind of watched episodes here and there, but the team never felt the same - and he still wasn't a member by the time i stopped watching, just heard news that he got signed with 3 block ( same team as carlos / side brand of revive).
carlos was a pedo right? texting underaged girls?
its weird lance didnt come back 1 time
1:51 a part of me wants to say he became a photographer…about a year after he left I came across a video where he was being interviewed by this other photographer
Those early clips man, it's why I started watching. So fucking wholesome and inspiring to both old and young skaters alike. It's so sad to see what has become of Braille.
Dude you need to put a more effort into your ‘reporting’, just watching a video for the first time then commenting on it is not useful to anyone. Lance did not leave for a job opportunity or a girlfriend as braille claimed he did, lance is in Scientology and left because he went to Clearwater for training.
source?
@@sp4st1337source is “trust me bro”
Needs uodating to include Uzi now!
What about Justin Soria or Doug Des Autels? Weren't they official members of Braille at one point? Also, I know this video is slightly old, but Gabe also left and JD did too.
where did you see jd leaving bro?
@@Danwebz I saw it on his RUclips channel posts under the "Community" tab.
I never wanted to leave tbh how do you even remember me brother lmao
@@JustinSoriaSkate Have you shared your story of leaving Braille? If not, would you want to share it? Also, I have watched Braille videos for a while, off and on, so that's how I know you. I'm no one special other than a long-time viewer. Thanks for the reply, by the way 🙂
@@1upmushroom13 yeah man it’s kinda a long story. I mentioned some of it in another comment section a few days ago to somebody else. If you wanna hear more lemme know and I’ll explain later just busy right now (sleeping , it’s 3:30 am just woke up and read this lol)
Aaron is now the leader of the LA Scientology org.
this is the 2nd video of your ive watched, both for the same topic, but when you said a lot of ur viewers were idiots i fell in love lmao. i dont subscribe a lot but you obviously real and dont give a fuk and say what you mean and i respect that, its rare nowadays
It's funny you are talking about predators while wearing a motley crue hoodie who are known predators also. "She's only fifteen" is proof this was only a badge of honor to them.
Months later, I'm glad the channel has taken the direction that it has.
Hey man I forget the Asian filters name but I’d love to figure out why he left, I actually have some DMs with McNugget regarding why some of the filters never got an origin video
mcnuget and mougly were different people?

@@Joe-eo1uo I still do. They're out in the community now non-stop
Its a shame there isn't time stamps for each subject, especially if your coming back to finish the vid
I never really understood the hate on Gabe. Gabe pours his heart and soul into Braille. He’s one of the only reasons the channel is still alive. You can tell dude tries everything to put content out. It’s not always the best content but atleast he tries when everybody else seems to have kind of given up. I have nothing but mad respect for him for sure.
Same, and it's not like he's particularly "fake" either. Like I'm sure he turns up the energy a bit for the sake of the cameras but most of the time he's just hanging around suggesting tricks and making dad jokes, what else do people want from a filmer?
He just seems annoying and insecure, it’s clear Braille has gave him some sort of purpose but along with that is clearly a big ego which makes him come across very unlikeable.
@@imusic1006 what gives you that impression? He treats everybody on the team with respect and he always makes sure to involve everybody and their ideas. And I’ve personally talked to him a couple of times and he’s never come across as egotistical. The only reasonable complaint I’ve seen about him is how over hype he is about everything, but you can’t exactly blame him when everybody else on the channel has the emotions of a robot.
For me i cant stand all his childish yelling and screaming from behind the camera. It is so damned annoying. I wish the dude would just shut the fuck up sometimes.
@@imusic1006you seem annoying and insecure…… stop hating
Uzi and Nigel are mt favorites
What about my bubble flipping bro Mario remember him og braille
That guy was pretty funny 😂
Mario was a legend
what about Aussie Dan? did he actually ever leave? was he a part of the "Team" to begin with?
People forgot about lances hardflip, still one of the cleanest hardlfips out there somehow 😂
I knew you’d say forced when you were trying to think of it because I agree
I got hooked on Braille videos mainly because of Lance's progression. I got so inspired that I started skating again after over 20 years at the age of 35. I never got as good as Lance eventually got, but I kept watching and skating until the lockdowns happened. It pains me to see what's happened to what was once a great, positive and wholesome channel and crew. I fn h8 Sci_tology so much!!!
I want my 17 minutes back. The answer to nearly all of them is “I don’t know”.
Gabe was ok, he yelled too much in the videos when I was trying to nap to the soothing sound of skateboards
i wanna see Mogley on Powell, would be sick
Anyone know what is happening with Uzi I haven't seen him in awhile
Uzi is working hard on his music and his clothing brand
Thank you
He left too. See for yourself in his yt channel.
Bruh idk what happened and im not hating but you come across as kinda salty in this video. You also missed several things. Ill go from the beginning. Lance is 100% a scientologist, he has donated a decent amount to them and known Aaron's wife longer than aaron has, thru Scientology. He also did a video on his dads channel a year or two after he left, talking about youtube in general. I dont know if Kelly and Luke were ever officially paid like the actual team but they both left to go to college and moved out of state. They have appeared in videos since. Fetty situation you got right. But he does still skate and films some of Uzis insta clips. Carlos did get a goodbye video on braille, which is partially why Nigel said they did fetty so dirty, besides letting carlos appear in other videos. There IS statute of limitations on SA in Cali but its either 40 years if theyre a minor or 10 if theyre an adult. McNugg is a douche but he didnt sleep with anyones girl. He ran up a debt somehow in Rickys name and aarons or owed aaron too. Doesnt make a ton of sense how but he has apparently paid it back. But when he got caught he disappeared. Hes not the type of person to get paid for skating and get his name on a board and just dip out unless something went down. Mario I think left for school or a job and Troy went back to Hawaii. Troy and his wife are also scientologist along with 95% of the people who run braille, like Chloe and the ones who handle behind the scenes stuff. Anyone else who appeared then didnt werent actual employees. Aaron knew about what carlos did for awhile, apparently since the all terrain tour and did nothing. Information is really easy to get about most of this stuff. Also mogley is just a die hard skater and i think knew he wouldnt get ahead with the internet viewing him as a youtube/braille guy. People view bryan Arnett, chris hiett, zach doelling differently than braille even tho they both make youtube vids. And mogley knows that. Plus hes a father and was traveling alot to work there. One weird thing is if a pro skater works for the company they skate for, if they leave that job theyre still pro for said company. But mogley left braille the job and they took away his pro board. Their version of pro is different obviously and doesnt really mean the same but its still weird af.
To Mogley losing his Pro Deck, that was because Mogley got other endorsment offers and given he wasnt going to be on the team anymore, joining other teams would make more sense for him businesswise.
@@Chrisisplays I feel that. PS stix decks are pretty good but Braille graphics are clearly for children. Mogley on Powell makes sense. But I just want to see him succeed regardless of where. He's a real deal skater and to still be so committed at his age, with a kid, and to still be progressing... He deserves all the success that comes. Glad he realized his dreams couldn't be achieved where he was and made the move
It's amazing how this comment was made to sound so insulting and demeaning when realistically he's just pointing out the manipulation of Braille because Aaron himself will not address some things.. but I get it you're willing to stand up for this company all because you like watching their videos?
Huh if only Hitler made youtube videos for you to watch.
Just saw that Uzi left a couple days ago too, he posted a video too.
i hope he pursues his music career, he totally doesn't suck
@@nickwallenda768 Is he on Spotify?
Why did uzi leave?
Wtf...! So because Carlos was being more genuine about what he did, you making him sound worse than Fetty? Bro!! Fetty actually slept multiple times with a 14 year old girl when he was 26, even after the girl told him her real age. Carlos did wrong too, but not to that extent of sxe with a minor, and Fetty denies everything. So what?! If Carlos denies everything, then his good? All the accusations are not true? Come on, you're so fake for cloud.
Got any proof for the wild claims you’re making? As I’ll gladly issue a correction if you can prove it
@Danwebz The victim girl literally posted a video confessing everything that happened with fetty, including where she lied about her age in the beginning. Is in the youtube channel "RUclipsrs Exposed"
"All the Braille members that have left the company..." Cat leaves on cue.
I guess you may have to update this one now with Uzi!! lol
Did you ever talk about why or how Mario left, I’m not sure what actually happened to him or why he stopped showing up, granted I’m not sure if he still makes appearances since I don’t watch Braille like I use too but I feel like could be someone you can probably talk about if there’s enough information about him good or bad?!
The Carlos situation really broke my heart he was really chill initially
If I remember correctly Luke and Kelly were interns. Idk when that ended specifically I remember watching a video where Aaron Gabe and Kelly had mentioned it but nothing was mentioned about it afterward
how can they afford the lease on that warehouse if their numbers are so abysmal?
Scientology
I don’t think Kelly was a employee but a hang around he was still in high school when he stopped being on the braille channel so often
JDs story is what kept me watching alot. But I really liked Ricky ,Glo, and UZI
When you said old braille used to be great but then Gabe... Yea... I felt that. I literally stopped watching because of Gabe. He just annoyed the piss outta me.
You are exactly right about padding videos and making them waay longer then they need to be. It makes them hard to watch, even though i really do want to see the whole thing.
I remember vaguely Kelly explaining his goals and how he wanted to explore life himself with Luke. It’s not really about anything dramatic with them and braille because they were close but not really featured that much on the channel. Both Kelly and Luke grew up with them and worked with them I believe. I just think their relationship is wholesome and good. Don’t quote me 100% been following all these guys for a while so this is all just from memory
Kelly showed up on their cross country tour too and luke has been back as well
I like you DW but you are starting to lean into the drama of other men in the skate industry. Where Im from, calling someone out of their name on something so serious as SO without having actual evidence on the topic is false jacketing and will get you X'd out. No saying the skate industry is about that because it definitely is not, especially the YT side of skating, but its still whack AF. Imagine evidence coming back proving him not guilty or Nigel was just projecting and gets caught up in some stuff jn the furture... You would look like a dork.
The whole fetty situation i knew from the start he was innocent. Woman like to lie to try and get what they want and in this case fetty worked for a big youtube channel so money. It happens very often to men being accused of something they didnt do and serving time. Braille is a bunch of scum bags for the way they approached the situation. They should of been defending fetty if they were hia friends and trusted him
So quick update on that you can add Uzi to the list
What about uzi
Name the last album that motley Crue released....?
Mogley is doing his thing man! Whooo
I wonder if Kyro hadn't donated so much money to Scientology, and instead put it into the business & it's employees, if it could have been huge - in the same fashion as something like Barstool which was started from nothing, by a few friends. Now Braille is all but done, and the real winner was the "Church" of Scientology...
Man, people are insanely busy. I don’t know if it’s best practice to be insinuating Ricky doesn’t have good energy and say you can’t deal with that just because they didn’t reply to some instagram dms in a timely manner. Dude probably gets a lot of DMs. Maybe there’s more to it, but that seems like a weird little jab that could lead to more drama. Probably not because Ricky seems pretty low key but still felt a little unnecessary and spiteful. Love your channel and watch everyday, so hopefully you take this comment in good faith.
Hella salty fanboy attitude to getting left on read. Ricky seems chill. Really seems like Dan thought he'd be given exclusives with Nigel and Aaron and Ricky or something and didn't so now he's gonna tear them down. This is legit the origin of Chadd Sinclairs war with Braille lol
You guys are both delusional.. but Ricky did do a podcast where he said himself that Ricky HIMSELF was being sensitive.
Just like both of you, Enjoy your cringe comments.
"some of you guys are fucking idiots" that cracked me up bro. there are some 'lights are on but no body's home' mo fo's out there
Decided to look at Braille’s channel while watching DaBoyz long form vid and saw that McNugget is apparently back at Braille for some reason
I found Braille channel when they went to Bob Burnquist house and skated the big ramp.
There was Justin Soria who just disappeared. He was a photogenic lad. I could have seen him getting a following on Instagram or something.
Is that a non sus way of saying you think he's handsome? He wasn't ever a paid team member tho. Pretty decent on a board but I'm guessing him and a few of the other young dudes finally got licenses and found girls lol
@turbocateyeS475 that’s pretty accurate lol I have a kid and a fiancé now 😂
Is the start of this video out of sync?
So happy that I'm not the only one who thought braille started to suck when Gabe started. Now people are proving my thoughts.
If there are any accusations about SA and the person gets acquitted you still shouldn’t have them on your team. There just wasn’t enough evidence to prove guilty and it’s a horrible look for you to keep them around. Pedos don’t deserve a second chance
I found Mogely on RUclips years ago and followed him to Braille’s channel. Sad that it is all falling apart. Hope Mo gets on Powell! Love that team
Whenever SA or anything criminal happens in a company they always just block out that person. Look at WWE. Chris Benoit, Brock Lesnar, even Chyna is just now able to be seen and she didn’t even do anything but have sex on a camera. But braille is made for literal children and they need to black out any sign of toxicity so they don’t look bad
This video lacks research for sure.
Aaron that you😅🤡
It’s not Aaron it’s lord xenu
What about the latest circumstances?🤔
100 percent agrees
This vid was ahead of its time
What did fetty do is he good?
“A lot of you guys are fucking idiots” made me subscribe lol anyone willing to call out the idiots like that I wanna hear more from 👀
