do brands lead to other brands

[CANADIAN Skater ah!]

What i meen is how certian people ride componies from the same distributer, for example poeple who buy zero decks probebly have fallen shoes. Now i'm not saying there is anything wrong with this ( you like what you like) but does anyone else but my feel wierd when they ride stuff from totaly seperate componies. e.g i ride toy machine and i skate lakai's. so what do you think on the topic do brands lead to other brands?

yeah certain deck brands have ties with other companies like:

Baker- Supra, Kr3w, Emerica, Altamont
Girl- Laki, Royal Trucks, Fillmore wheels, Matix

and so on...

but i dont really feel wierd about it...i just like to skate imo the best stuff

cause if i buy a girl deck i wont rock royal trucks cause i dont like thier trucks lol

but it is funny when you see stuff like a guy rocking nike SB's with a consolidatied deck :-L

I dont think I'm gonna sit there and make one company rich. Toy Machine make good boards, but their distributor's old wheel brand went to shit and died.

check Mike Mo; he's on girl, royal and lakai, so he's killing it on crailtap
Take a page from Rick McCrank's book though; he was formerly on chocolate and royal, now he's on girl and thunder.

seperate company's? they all respect skateboarding, so who gives a shit? it's not liek they're car muffler vs headphone brands.
