You guys are the only reason I ever watched Braille in the first place. To hear that you were getting scraps, and not getting paid for brand deals, all while Aaron’s money was being put into Scientology, is heartbreaking. I’m so happy you made this channel. Great things are ahead.
I found Braille earlier this week, binged it, ordered my first skateboard, and found you guys today and learned what happened. My skateboard comes today. What a whirlwind week it's been for me! 😂
Dude I used to watch Braille all the time. I recently decided to get back into it at 30 and look these guys up on RUclips and see this crap. What a mess! Hope you like your board, picking mine up this weekend!
This is what I love about the skating community. No PR, no sorry's, no excuse me's. Just straight honesty. Looking very forward to more from this channel!
The only sorry was Glass saying sorry to JD for not being able to attend the UFC fight. I love these guys personalities and skills, really hope this channel is successful.
@@BrunodeSouzaLino Unfortunately, but you have enough big name skaters coming through either the park (when it's ever open lol) for B.A.T.B, or other comp series.
The fact that Braille was practically run by scientologists and the skaters, including Gabe, who did almost all the work, were given peanuts, is prove that Braille had one goal. To fund an evil cult. Aaron was never sincere when he said he did all this out of his love for skateboarding. He used skateboarding, as well as the people he called his friends, to make Scientology a lot of money.
Glo got the hype, Uzi got the swag, Rick has the crazy work ethic, Nigel got that charisma, JD got the raw talent, and Mogely on that grind. One sick team!

I used to watch braile all the time back in 2017-2018 maybe it was a little later than that. I also wanted to add, that YOU guys, all the skaters that where on the channel are what made the channel. Just seeing you guys have a good time at the parks and in the warehouse having fun. I still remember the video where you guys skated the glass skateboard, and I still say first try even if you guys are probably annoyed by it now. Those memories you guys made for people back then mean a lot even if it pretty much went down in flames. I NEVER saw the scientology angle coming in the slightest. I am glad that you guys are back doing your own thing again. Happy to see you guys are still bros in the end, or the new beginning.
I kind of lost respect for him, because he put Tim Pool on his channel and is being 'sponsored' by him. Tim Pool is a terrible hate mongering social media personality, in case you didn't know. Ricky has a lot of children in his audience and should definitely know better to expose them people like that. It shows that either he will drop any morals for some money, or that he has some terrible hateful beliefs, himself.
@@NixFaux ...That is indeed... what it's from... This comment reminds me of that one girl with glasses who's tiktok was verbally explaining Among Us memes.
@@dylanherron3963 he didn't realise they were making a reference to the film. Quite simple to comprehend, you shouldn't be throwing shade when your critical thinking skills are subpar.
I just want to point out the brilliance of DaBoyz shirt design is a story in itself. These ex- _braille_ boarders aren't _feeling_ it on an _eye exam_ chart. Clean, boyz. Very clean.
@@dalaysolis1948I didn't think of it either. What j.r.havener4048 is saying is that: DaBoyz shirt design looks like an eye exam chart, braille is the system that blind people use to read. You can take it a couple ways, but the one is that they are no longer blind.
@@dalaysolis1948Braille is actually a type of language that allows blind people to read. It's raised dots that they can feel. These DaBoyz shirts are set up like an eye doctor's standard test chart, where you look across the room and read off what letters are clear on the sign to see how good your vision is with and without the corrective lens. So the shirts are kinda a play - first they were blind, now they see. Or they see clearer now that they're on their own way.
DaBoyz on them hang out days, live streams, community days with the real world homies, doing dope trips and shit. We love to see yall in the real world
Glad I've found this channel. Followed the other one for YEARS and had no idea. Hope it grows bigger than any other and that you guys help the next generation of skaters as well. Cheers!
Dude, mad respect for running down the good times and not just mag dumping drama. I'm hoping yall can make new memories that are just as epic as those you made on the old channel.
I appreciate how raw and real this video is. It's a bit long but it gave your personalities room to breath. I've long been removed from Braille's content but I follow a lot of you guys as individuals and waking up and seeing this video made me smile. I'm here for it. Whether it be skate content, video game content, whatever. I'll support anyone who breaks away from the BS y'all had to put up with.
This showed up in my reccomended! I hope this channel gets pushed to other former viewers of Braille bc you all are the soul of what that channel once was. Looking forward to what earnest, genuine, and sick stuff comes from da boyz!! 🔥🔥🔥
I am so happy to see you guys working through this together, I used to skate when I was a kid and loved watching you guys. That was the thing that had me sad the most was thinking I wasnt going to get to watch you guys again so this make me very happy. Da Boyz are awesome and cant wait to see what you guys can do.
Yall made skateboarding look cooler than it already was. The vibes you brought to the videos were amazing. Anyone watching could see the passion and talent you guys have. Sad to hear how people took that for granted. Glad you guys have a new channel, I'm definitely here to stay.
I’m so hyped for the next chapter, braille became so hollow towards the end when all the homies started leaving. So glad to see you all together doing your own thing and taking care of each other ❤
You def need to add coverage of JD's contests to the channel if and when you can. Hit up some street spots, show us your local skate shops, showcase the best skaters. You guys can do so much better than skating weird boards in a warehouse
yes to all of this! i've only seen one tiny clip of JD skating. in fact, it'd be nice to see a showcase of all daboyz. plus local skate parks and skate shops, and just range out further to do more of those when you can. you could also do live vid chats with shops that are further away, or skaters and then show some of their footage while talking to them. not like an interview but something chill and showcasing them. like MEET THE SK8. they talk, say hey, shoot the shit, intro some footage, what they are known for, etc. just would be fun to get that kinda stuff on current people. and all of you as well. skater spotlight?
Thank you for the transparency. The braille canal meant so much to me as a beginner skateboarder and I’m sad to see it go. But I’m happy you guys are here continuing what braille started to continue its legacy in a positive fashion. I was personally affected when I found out braille collapsed, I felt lied to as a loyal viewer who regularly watched videos. Only to find out that the main man was a Scientologist just waiting to say goodbye to us.
You guys are the main reason I even started watching the braille channel. I’m not even a skater (yet) lol. Your personalities & energy are just so dope. I watched the braille channel less & less though once the best skate crew members started dropping like flies. Glad to see you guys together here & doing your own thing now! You guys put so much into the braille company & with very little reward & appreciation in return. Anyone who says otherwise is just lying to themselves.
glad you guys are still sticking together and starting a new journey. everything that happened to you guys sucks and you deserved so much better. wishing y’all luck
I’m glad y’all made this video and this channel. Good to see that braille hasn’t taken DaBoyz down with it. I wish you all the best and can’t wait to see what this channel turns into.
Such a good discussion!! Thanks for clearing the air and giving this pause so we can all move forward as a fresh start! Cant wait to see what you come up with and more than anything feeling blessed that we still get to see all of you out having fun!
I'm an old-head, southern cali and retired skater who found Braille in like.. 2015? It was around the time of the channel's initial boom. I experienced skating vicariously thru y'all after college , and especially Nigel. He always seemed like such a chill and down to earth dude, basically the reason I enjoyed Braille for any length of time after the first few videos was y'all and the others that made it worthwhile. John Hill, Gabe, Nigel, and all of y'all for sticking thru this together.
I saw a comment and tried to find it from 5 years ago when fettuccine was still apart of the crew that said "scientology destroys and takes from everyone that doesn't support or "pay there dues". We only watched the channel for you guys and I think I can speak for most but this is the most satisfying and honestly honorable move and you are backed by a large community of ogs! Thank you and we love you guys!!!!
I really enjoy the podcast dynamic with you guys, you all seem so chill. Might be worth doing an episode like this every month or so. I can understand not wanting to do it all the time, but really enjoying it. =) Also might be worth it to throw up a patreon to help support the channel early on while you guys rebuild. Take care, good luck, and I look forward to seeing what comes next! =)

Eyy guys dont forget to play eachother in games of skates. I feel like that is one of the things that got people hyped and at the edge of their seats to see who will win this time. Glad to see you guys doing your thing, you could go so far with this, lets gooooo!
This is so crazy I’m so glad yall left and I’m so glad yall are talking about this shit, love you guys yall are my childhood im def gonna buy the merch when I have the money, gotta support the homies
For those wondering the brand deal that was 6 figures, it was Brisk Ice Tea. They also did a Cinnamon Toast Crunch that they probably didnt get paid shit for.
Because of how DaBoyz were used and not properly taken care of I completely unsubscribed to all the Braille channels and IG stuff and Aaron as well. You can see toward the end how the morale was way down, everyone starting leaving and everyone was just going through the motions. Gabe just sitting in a chair filming the videos, I could feel the tension and desire to not wanna show up there anymore. I'm glad you guys are still friends and made this new channel, I think it will blow up! I'm sorry how you guys all got the short end of the stick over at Braille but that's all in the past now on to big and better things💯👊
@@putnamehereholdmadoodle I disagree, i don't think they were lazy I think they were overworked and underpaid and that can make anyone lose interest. Especially when your boss leaves for almost a year with a one week notice to fund his scientology crap. I'm surprised they stayed as long as they did honestly. Braille is trash now barley getting any views and Kyro had to get McNugg back there to try and save it but the damage has already been done. Aaron cared more about his funding his religion than making good skate content and paying his workers properly.
3 месяца назад+5
Braille still has 5.8 million subscribers and I'd wager 100 bucks several million of them minimum are bought and paid for subs , not actual humans or skaters. You can purchase subscribers and I guarantee a whole hell of alot of those Braille has were bought.
@@putnamehereholdmadoodle Did you forget the part where it was public knowledge that something happened and people kept asking for clarification? But sure, if you wanna claim Ricky is bad for answering a frequently asked question go ahead. Might wanna sober up a bit first, you're struggling a bit with your words lmao.
I watched the whole video Nigel. You guys as individuals and as a family is the reason i'll be tuning in o this youtue channel. Love DaBoyz and who they will impact in this part of the journey. Keep being yourself and yourself always.
I know who JD is because of Braille. JD's on the up. Idk if he would have gotten the exposure from other sponsors, which he has several. If this was in the magazine days, he would have been all over Thrasher and TWS if the sponsors knew what was good for them. But Braille showed us the kid, and his personality, and his wild skills on the spot like no magazine ads or covereage ever could have. I thank Braille for that.
26:05 Damn... no cut of brand deals? For a while, I was an editor for a big channel and I received 8% of whatever the brand deal was. To get nothing is wild. But now DaBoyz will get 100%! I'm here for it. P.S. Glad to see JD is part of the group. He's going to be fine no matter what he does lol.
Lmao you guys got major technical kinks to work out in your production but I LOVE how raw this feels. I unsubbed from the B-word channel when I found out about the scientology stuff, but I've tried to support y'alls individual channels over the years and I'm SO glad you're coming together to do this. Make sure y'all lawyer up, have frank discussions with each other about job responsibilities and revenue sharing and all that, put in the work and you'll become youtube juggernauts in no time! Your charm, personalities, and skating skills were always the reason that channel worked!
You guys were always what made Braille great. You guys didn't just work for Braille- you ARE braille (braille is nothing without the homies) Alot of us grew up watching that channel and seeing faces come n go in the circle. Myself included I think I saw my first Braille vid around 11 or 12 and I am now 26. Godspeed dudes 👏
Just something i almost immediately noticed in this video compared to brailles videos is that UZI for one already has like a different aura. Alot more interactive. Just subscribed to you guys, keep it up!
what so many people dont get is that the worst part about the youtube drama and unclean breaks come a lot from the audience making wild assumptions about the unspoken stuff. it doesnt mean that people have to strip bare but all this stuff is way less juicy than people think. youre doing a good job on dispelling the magic around this situation.
Nigel and Ricky (all the guys actually,but i say Nigel and Ricky as they're saying the most) are straight up, genuine people. The honesty is refreshing.
What made braille truly shine were the people, the homies, the community and friendships that slowly develop throughout the videos. At least that was what got me hooked in the first place, I'm excited for this new chapter, and for content that shows more of this real aspect of skating, with the boys, without any filters, with the problems, no one is perfect and we all have our own lives and conflicts.
I’m far from Braille’s target audience…I’ve been skating since before RUclips was even a thing and thought a lot of the videos were pretty kooky. But it’s always been a guilty pleasure because of these personalities and the way they interact with each other. I’m looking forward to seeing what y’all are gonna cook up
Deep down you are longing for a real tight community, it's okay, we all do, and that is what draws people in. It's what School was like, until life spread us all by the wind.
So glad you guys are still filming together, y'all are what I liked best about the videos. You definitely deserved better and I'm glad you get to do stuff for yourselves now
Boyz, I watched the first video earlier today and you were on like 2k subs,. Now you are over 12k. Those are some good gains for a day one. Happy for you all.
I respect the talk about the money and labor. The idea that you shouldn’t talk about it only benefits oeol like Aaron and companies that exploit their workers. Yall talking about your experience is actually pretty important from a workers rights perspective.
This makes me genuinely happy dudes! I thought you guys were going your own separate ways but seeing this makes me really happy! Let’s go! Best of luck with this channel I can see big things coming 🤘🏼❤️
I would love to see you guy together as often as possible knowing that it's not able to happen all the time if all of you have access to the channel and load your own videos then recap when yall get together
Now it's clear to me why Uzi had so little enthusiasm the last 3 or 4 years. I actually watched B because of you guys not Aaron so I'll be supporting whatever you guys release! You guys should hit the streets in that warehouse they were gathering dust haha I hope you guys can come back the collaborations with Hiett, Anderson and Doelling were fun
That's his personality..iv never seen such a Low energy guy in everything he does Even when he skates on his channel he looks like he can't be bothered
That's what I like about him, Uzi is just in his own world and suddenly hit you with something funny or profound he drew from the ether. Same with Gabe in the sense where people criticized him for being loud, but that's just who he is. He likes to hype up and support the homies.@mccleandazza4618

Rick talking about promoting 6 figure brand deals while being paid minimum wage. JD looking like "you guys got paid?".
The whole "Wait, you guys are getting paid?" from "We're the Millers"
@@NixFaux ...That is indeed... what it's from... This comment reminds me of that one girl with glasses who's tiktok was verbally explaining Among Us memes.
@@NixFauxwas just thinking that😂
@@dylanherron3963 he didn't realise they were making a reference to the film. Quite simple to comprehend, you shouldn't be throwing shade when your critical thinking skills are subpar.
@@dylanherron3963never saw the film so I wouldn't have got that the reference was from there, so it was good to point out.
Forget Braille! I'm now a proud subscriber of DaBoyz! Don't stop being awesome, guys! I've been a fan for a decade
I am so glad to see you guys stick together and turn the wheel around and do your own channel.
I just want to point out the brilliance of DaBoyz shirt design is a story in itself. These ex- _braille_ boarders aren't _feeling_ it on an _eye exam_ chart. Clean, boyz. Very clean.
Dude... I didn't connect the dots until reading your comment.
Nice merch!
@@threeme2189 I don’t get it can you explain
@@dalaysolis1948I didn't think of it either. What j.r.havener4048 is saying is that: DaBoyz shirt design looks like an eye exam chart, braille is the system that blind people use to read. You can take it a couple ways, but the one is that they are no longer blind.
Aw man, thanks for pointing that out, it had not dawned on me yet and that makes the shirts so much better.
@@dalaysolis1948Braille is actually a type of language that allows blind people to read. It's raised dots that they can feel. These DaBoyz shirts are set up like an eye doctor's standard test chart, where you look across the room and read off what letters are clear on the sign to see how good your vision is with and without the corrective lens.
So the shirts are kinda a play - first they were blind, now they see. Or they see clearer now that they're on their own way.
This kinda feels like an adult reaction to emotional abuse from a stepfather when they were younger.
These folks are definitely working through some stuff in the video, good for them
A stepfather emotionally abused u? Wtf did ur real dad do?
@@kennethmalone9451 went getting milk...
On point.
@@NERDOFUNK damn Raw milk too 💀
DaBoyz on them hang out days, live streams, community days with the real world homies, doing dope trips and shit. We love to see yall in the real world
Love to see these guys together again. Keep going boys, you are on the path to build something great that you can call your own.
This feels so authentic, glad we can finally see their true personalities come out with no filters. I’m excited to see what they got planned
42:00 Uzi zoned out petting the wind screen on the mic lol
stoked that this channel exists and yall can do your own thing now
This is a secret ASMR channel
I didn't notice it until 1:06:00 I was like what is this noise I'm hearing and then I saw it hahaha
bro was stimming
Fuzzy mic. Must have a pat
Him doing that drove me nuts lmao
there better be a "DaBoyz go to Business School" skit i swear lol love you guys
Glad I've found this channel. Followed the other one for YEARS and had no idea. Hope it grows bigger than any other and that you guys help the next generation of skaters as well. Cheers!
Dude, mad respect for running down the good times and not just mag dumping drama. I'm hoping yall can make new memories that are just as epic as those you made on the old channel.
I appreciate how raw and real this video is. It's a bit long but it gave your personalities room to breath. I've long been removed from Braille's content but I follow a lot of you guys as individuals and waking up and seeing this video made me smile. I'm here for it. Whether it be skate content, video game content, whatever. I'll support anyone who breaks away from the BS y'all had to put up with.
This showed up in my reccomended! I hope this channel gets pushed to other former viewers of Braille bc you all are the soul of what that channel once was. Looking forward to what earnest, genuine, and sick stuff comes from da boyz!! 🔥🔥🔥
I am so happy to see you guys working through this together, I used to skate when I was a kid and loved watching you guys. That was the thing that had me sad the most was thinking I wasnt going to get to watch you guys again so this make me very happy. Da Boyz are awesome and cant wait to see what you guys can do.
it was completely crazy to see JD grow up with everyone and become this crazy skater with the best mentors
Yall made skateboarding look cooler than it already was. The vibes you brought to the videos were amazing. Anyone watching could see the passion and talent you guys have. Sad to hear how people took that for granted. Glad you guys have a new channel, I'm definitely here to stay.
I’m so hyped for the next chapter, braille became so hollow towards the end when all the homies started leaving.
So glad to see you all together doing your own thing and taking care of each other ❤
So glad to see you guys together and doing this channel. Never would have learned to skate if it wasn’t for you guys.
You def need to add coverage of JD's contests to the channel if and when you can. Hit up some street spots, show us your local skate shops, showcase the best skaters. You guys can do so much better than skating weird boards in a warehouse
yes to all of this! i've only seen one tiny clip of JD skating. in fact, it'd be nice to see a showcase of all daboyz. plus local skate parks and skate shops, and just range out further to do more of those when you can. you could also do live vid chats with shops that are further away, or skaters and then show some of their footage while talking to them. not like an interview but something chill and showcasing them. like MEET THE SK8. they talk, say hey, shoot the shit, intro some footage, what they are known for, etc. just would be fun to get that kinda stuff on current people. and all of you as well. skater spotlight?
@@lurklingXyou would love @theskatenomad Channel
The only way to overcome adversity is to out shine the negativity. Forward movements!
And slander people over and over and play yhe vicyim. This is what they have done.
By being negative lol
@@putnamehereholdmadoodle LMAO. They were the victim. If Aaron didn't wanna be "slandered" he should've been honest to them and the viewers.
@@putnamehereholdmadoodle Dang "they" already out here.. keep it moving weirdo.
@mikemiller7946 just having a look, at what there doing now? Why cant i be here?
Thank you for the transparency. The braille canal meant so much to me as a beginner skateboarder and I’m sad to see it go. But I’m happy you guys are here continuing what braille started to continue its legacy in a positive fashion. I was personally affected when I found out braille collapsed, I felt lied to as a loyal viewer who regularly watched videos. Only to find out that the main man was a Scientologist just waiting to say goodbye to us.
Canal?
Lota good farmers relied on that that there braille canal until them nasty scientist fellows shut her down, it’s a shame. 🌾
@@korumu *channel*
You guys are the main reason I even started watching the braille channel. I’m not even a skater (yet) lol. Your personalities & energy are just so dope. I watched the braille channel less & less though once the best skate crew members started dropping like flies.
Glad to see you guys together here & doing your own thing now! You guys put so much into the braille company & with very little reward & appreciation in return. Anyone who says otherwise is just lying to themselves.
glad you guys are still sticking together and starting a new journey. everything that happened to you guys sucks and you deserved so much better. wishing y’all luck
I'm really glad to see you guys back together with a new channel. I'm looking forward to see what is to come in the future!
I really love the Brotherhood You guys display right here - this is Skateboarding!!!
I’m glad y’all made this video and this channel. Good to see that braille hasn’t taken DaBoyz down with it. I wish you all the best and can’t wait to see what this channel turns into.
Such a good discussion!! Thanks for clearing the air and giving this pause so we can all move forward as a fresh start! Cant wait to see what you come up with and more than anything feeling blessed that we still get to see all of you out having fun!
I'm an old-head, southern cali and retired skater who found Braille in like.. 2015? It was around the time of the channel's initial boom. I experienced skating vicariously thru y'all after college , and especially Nigel. He always seemed like such a chill and down to earth dude, basically the reason I enjoyed Braille for any length of time after the first few videos was y'all and the others that made it worthwhile. John Hill, Gabe, Nigel, and all of y'all for sticking thru this together.
I saw a comment and tried to find it from 5 years ago when fettuccine was still apart of the crew that said "scientology destroys and takes from everyone that doesn't support or "pay there dues". We only watched the channel for you guys and I think I can speak for most but this is the most satisfying and honestly honorable move and you are backed by a large community of ogs! Thank you and we love you guys!!!!
YYEEEEEESSSSSSSS thank you boys! Congrats on opening the page to a new chapter!
42:00 Uzi audibly petting the microphone like a hamster is making me lose it 😂😂
😄
i was so confused like wheres that sound coming from
I think Uzi is the only one stoned on the pot.
same lol
I was like ayo wtf is happening with the audio, my guy uzi over here thumb twirling the mic
I really enjoy the podcast dynamic with you guys, you all seem so chill. Might be worth doing an episode like this every month or so. I can understand not wanting to do it all the time, but really enjoying it. =) Also might be worth it to throw up a patreon to help support the channel early on while you guys rebuild. Take care, good luck, and I look forward to seeing what comes next! =)
i second the patreon thing. you could see it as funding some of the vids, any travel.
$20 an hour is unreal. For risking your body, building a channel, what a slap in the face
Panda Express staring pay here is 19:50 😂
Should be enough for my $2000 monthly studio
Getting paid hourly instead of salary+incentive bonuses is crazy actually lol
@@franciscoramirez9867And barely anything else
Better then most skaters tbh which is a bag of weed and boards 😂
I'm so hyped up for this channel and I grateful to have y'all back
Man JdSanchez has grown a lot ever since the last time I saw him
It's all that angular momentum from the 900s expanding his body
He really is right in the time of his life where he's growing every single day. He's turning from a kid into a young man currently. It's gonna be interesting to see how his style and abilities change in the coming years.
He became a man when he landed the 900
Yeah Little JD is getting so grown up 💜
Born to shred
So much closure. Thanks guys. I am looking forward to all the awesome content ahead!
Eyy guys dont forget to play eachother in games of skates. I feel like that is one of the things that got people hyped and at the edge of their seats to see who will win this time. Glad to see you guys doing your thing, you could go so far with this, lets gooooo!
This is so crazy I’m so glad yall left and I’m so glad yall are talking about this shit, love you guys yall are my childhood im def gonna buy the merch when I have the money, gotta support the homies
For those wondering the brand deal that was 6 figures, it was Brisk Ice Tea. They also did a Cinnamon Toast Crunch that they probably didnt get paid shit for.
28:30 GLO cracks me up so much the way he always tries to stay positive.
Because of how DaBoyz were used and not properly taken care of I completely unsubscribed to all the Braille channels and IG stuff and Aaron as well. You can see toward the end how the morale was way down, everyone starting leaving and everyone was just going through the motions. Gabe just sitting in a chair filming the videos, I could feel the tension and desire to not wanna show up there anymore. I'm glad you guys are still friends and made this new channel, I think it will blow up! I'm sorry how you guys all got the short end of the stick over at Braille but that's all in the past now on to big and better things💯👊
The same people you claim inbented the channel killed the channel with lazyness.
@@putnamehereholdmadoodle I disagree, i don't think they were lazy I think they were overworked and underpaid and that can make anyone lose interest. Especially when your boss leaves for almost a year with a one week notice to fund his scientology crap. I'm surprised they stayed as long as they did honestly. Braille is trash now barley getting any views and Kyro had to get McNugg back there to try and save it but the damage has already been done. Aaron cared more about his funding his religion than making good skate content and paying his workers properly.
Braille still has 5.8 million subscribers and I'd wager 100 bucks several million of them minimum are bought and paid for subs , not actual humans or skaters. You can purchase subscribers and I guarantee a whole hell of alot of those Braille has were bought.
Lol no way bro.
@@putnamehereholdmadoodle Did you forget the part where it was public knowledge that something happened and people kept asking for clarification? But sure, if you wanna claim Ricky is bad for answering a frequently asked question go ahead. Might wanna sober up a bit first, you're struggling a bit with your words lmao.
I watched the whole video Nigel. You guys as individuals and as a family is the reason i'll be tuning in o this youtue channel. Love DaBoyz and who they will impact in this part of the journey. Keep being yourself and yourself always.
Poor Jd could have had ACTUAL SPONSORS. Arron screwd that kid so hard
Jd is on h street what do you mean? The kid is going places.. lol keep up w him before you talk…
nothing was taken away from this kid, he has his sb skills to back himself up fr
he did a 900 in X Games. JD has a bright future.
JD has a big audience thanks to Braille... do you know how much valueble is this?
I know who JD is because of Braille. JD's on the up. Idk if he would have gotten the exposure from other sponsors, which he has several. If this was in the magazine days, he would have been all over Thrasher and TWS if the sponsors knew what was good for them. But Braille showed us the kid, and his personality, and his wild skills on the spot like no magazine ads or covereage ever could have. I thank Braille for that.
26:05 Damn... no cut of brand deals? For a while, I was an editor for a big channel and I received 8% of whatever the brand deal was.
To get nothing is wild. But now DaBoyz will get 100%! I'm here for it.
P.S. Glad to see JD is part of the group. He's going to be fine no matter what he does lol.
20k subs in a day is NUTS guys. Super hyped to see where this takes yall
shoutout to JD for taking all of this in stride. can’t be easy for him considering Aaron “found” him originally
Lmao you guys got major technical kinks to work out in your production but I LOVE how raw this feels. I unsubbed from the B-word channel when I found out about the scientology stuff, but I've tried to support y'alls individual channels over the years and I'm SO glad you're coming together to do this. Make sure y'all lawyer up, have frank discussions with each other about job responsibilities and revenue sharing and all that, put in the work and you'll become youtube juggernauts in no time! Your charm, personalities, and skating skills were always the reason that channel worked!
Love you guys
Glad to see daboyz are back together
No Susie 🙏😇
No susie ☝️👏👏👏
Please no susie!🙏
B A N A N N A
I translated this to English and it still doesnt make sense.
Nvm translated to Australian it worked.
DaBoyz: Going Clear. I wish you all the best and hope the channel is a huge success.
As a 32y old you guys are like the real life Rocket Power to me and I’m here for it!
Rocket power!! Wow tool me back dude
As a fan of braille that was watching them for my childhood 10 plus years ago. I appreciate yall doing this.
You guys were always what made Braille great.
You guys didn't just work for Braille- you ARE braille (braille is nothing without the homies)
Alot of us grew up watching that channel and seeing faces come n go in the circle.
Myself included I think I saw my first Braille vid around 11 or 12 and I am now 26.
Godspeed dudes 👏
A name is just a sticker, the human connection is what is real.
Just something i almost immediately noticed in this video compared to brailles videos is that UZI for one already has like a different aura. Alot more interactive. Just subscribed to you guys, keep it up!
Felt like this would happen, thank got yall are back
I am glad these dudes have done this. I have been waiting for them to talk about this stuff since the end of the beginning.
what so many people dont get is that the worst part about the youtube drama and unclean breaks come a lot from the audience making wild assumptions about the unspoken stuff. it doesnt mean that people have to strip bare but all this stuff is way less juicy than people think. youre doing a good job on dispelling the magic around this situation.
Nigel and Ricky (all the guys actually,but i say Nigel and Ricky as they're saying the most) are straight up, genuine people. The honesty is refreshing.
What made braille truly shine were the people, the homies, the community and friendships that slowly develop throughout the videos. At least that was what got me hooked in the first place, I'm excited for this new chapter, and for content that shows more of this real aspect of skating, with the boys, without any filters, with the problems, no one is perfect and we all have our own lives and conflicts.
Underrated comment. I said stuff but not as well.
uzi mentioning the crhistmas tree through the roof brought up good memories man what a throw back
Where’s fetty!?!
@@dizzleslaunsen2372 he had some stuff against him years ago forcing him to leave braille. so im sure they arnt adding him to this group
I’m far from Braille’s target audience…I’ve been skating since before RUclips was even a thing and thought a lot of the videos were pretty kooky. But it’s always been a guilty pleasure because of these personalities and the way they interact with each other. I’m looking forward to seeing what y’all are gonna cook up
Deep down you are longing for a real tight community, it's okay, we all do, and that is what draws people in. It's what School was like, until life spread us all by the wind.
So glad you guys are still filming together, y'all are what I liked best about the videos. You definitely deserved better and I'm glad you get to do stuff for yourselves now
Boyz, I watched the first video earlier today and you were on like 2k subs,. Now you are over 12k. Those are some good gains for a day one. Happy for you all.
Love to see you guys doing this! Cant wait to show up to support any local events!
dope 🛹
I respect the talk about the money and labor.
The idea that you shouldn’t talk about it only benefits oeol like Aaron and companies that exploit their workers.
Yall talking about your experience is actually pretty important from a workers rights perspective.
This makes me genuinely happy dudes! I thought you guys were going your own separate ways but seeing this makes me really happy! Let’s go! Best of luck with this channel I can see big things coming 🤘🏼❤️
I would love to see you guy together as often as possible knowing that it's not able to happen all the time if all of you have access to the channel and load your own videos then recap when yall get together
Ricky is easily the smartest, most savvy and productive member and without him I doubt this would have ever happened. Thanks Rick.
IMO Nigel had a big part in this too. He's been on one since everything happened. Love all these guys though. They didn't deserve that treatment
@@spassbuchannan7466definitely a truth teller. I appreciate him calling out the nonces and bullshit at Braille.
Yeah he's real genius, flying to Russia in the middle of a war.
I 100% agree. thank u ricky
Now it's clear to me why Uzi had so little enthusiasm the last 3 or 4 years. I actually watched B because of you guys not Aaron so I'll be supporting whatever you guys release! You guys should hit the streets in that warehouse they were gathering dust haha I hope you guys can come back the collaborations with Hiett, Anderson and Doelling were fun
That's his personality..iv never seen such a Low energy guy in everything he does
Even when he skates on his channel he looks like he can't be bothered
That's what I like about him, Uzi is just in his own world and suddenly hit you with something funny or profound he drew from the ether. Same with Gabe in the sense where people criticized him for being loud, but that's just who he is. He likes to hype up and support the homies.@mccleandazza4618
@@mccleandazza4618 nah hes chill, him and fetty made the channel for me back when i watched, unpredictable lol, if anything they balanced out the dynamic with gabe and nigel yellin all the time xD
Cool to hear the Utah stop in West Valley was dope for yall. It was kickass meeting you guys there.
Glad you guys are united and deserve the best. Big ups DaBoyz!
Double the views in half the time compared to Braille's newest video. Well done fellers. Love seeing you all back together, and can't wait to see what you all film next.
Aaron still making videos with his scientology girlfriend or whatever?!
hype to see this on my feed rn, nice to see the crew together, just missin Mo
We got peak Garrett Ginner, Lamont posting again, Bryan killing it, and now this. Is skateboard RUclips BACKKKKK!!!
And Versace plug
dats what’s im sayinnn 🤝🤝
Garrett’s channel has grown up right with me lol it’s fs evolving
That!
good call let’s gooooo 🔥🤘🏼🛹
Thank you guys for keeping the skate community alive many kids got put on and yall continuing to is genuinely a blessing
