Tilt Mode was a breath of fresh air and carried on the spirit of the BMC after Tim Brauch passed away. Didn't Big Brother stumble across an in-house memo from Transworld about how TWS wanted to portray skateboarding around this time? Like handrails, sunny skies, progression, etc. I believe BB ran their own version of the memo saying they would continue to promote their friends and silly business. Tilt Mode was clearly aligned with this approach to skateboarding.

MJ1s were the Phelps shoe. I hate to promote my own research, but here's the link:

Edward Sebastian had a few of the Maple guys, like Chad Knight, on the team. I thought their ads were a little better designed than a lot of other companies.

This is from Skateboarder's 15 Things about Sorry from 2003 and gives you an idea of how little Tom was in the US:

The last trick filmed, just days before the May 21, 2002 premiere, was Tom Penny’s line at the Belmont ledges in Long Beach.

It took the Sorry premier to bring Tom Penny back to the United States after leaving the country six years earlier. He only stayed for two weeks.
