What's not to understand? We have no way of knowing if you are actually giving the money to the families. How can you not see how this is a sketchy grey area?

I understand that. Ive got everything togeather now though. Instead of risking the possibility of not being able to fing a way to get the money to the families I've decided that the Brain Injury Association of America would be far more simple to donate to. If you need any proof of the money actually going to them I can get it. I can even put them up on ebay and make it so that all of the profit goes to the BIAA except what it costs to make the die cuts. If you dont trust me then fine. But if I dont do this someone else will.

I remember when CR had that serious head injury that put him in a coma, we all put the letters CR in yellow tape on our helmets. I think that would be appropriate to do again.

I'll be 16 in like 2 weeks, and I'm actually a freshman, but I did my research and I'm pretty sure I'm getting straight As at the hardest school in the state so it's not like I'm a dumbass that would fuck something up. I made an NS a year ago but there was a problem with the account confirmation and I didn't make a new one until last month

Really? Because I'm pretty sure it takes alot of finantial help to stay in the hospital for several weeks , then go thru physical therapy. The BIAA is for finantial support for families who are going through that. It doesent matter though because the stickers have been called off

sweet bro, high school marketing. sounds demanding. no matter what you say your not going to prove yourself qualified so stop trying newb. in addition if you knew jack shit about the situation, you would understand that stand strong again is much more relevant to action sports brain, back, and head trauma accidents. while the BIAA is surely a great organization, the money raised would be going directly back into action sports head injuries and recoveries if donated to stand strong again. and i believe that most people in the community would agree that the money would be best suited going back into an organization that works with and helps those in the action sports community that have suffered head injuries.

That actually does sound better than the BIAA. Well, when you've taken 6 of em you end up somewhere in the advanced college level classes. I actually took my last one at a college.

Guys, can we stop this right here? It seems like freeskiNC actually does understand what ghoodonya is trying to say, but it also seems like freeskiNC actually does know a thing or two about marketing, and it's pretty clear that he has good intentions, so let's leave it at that. This thread is meant to try and figure out the best way to show our respect and love for a freeski icon and a hero and amazingly positive role model to everyone on this site. A fight on this thread is just wrong. Not only is it detrimental to the cause, but it's just disrespectful to CR. I mean, if he were posting in this thread right now, what would he say?

Both of you, just shake virtual hands, and let's get back to trying to figure out the best possible, feasible way to represent CR and everything he stood for.

Keep us all updated on that, I'm gonna try to look for a way to get some made too. Isn't there a member on here who makes custom die-cuts? Last time I checked, his name was Eggs. or Dawn....he seems kind of shady to me but it's probably worth it to ask him.

Yo freeski kid whose tryign to make stickers...

Whey the fuck are you listening to a bunch of assholes on NS. Your making stickers and selling them to donate money for a charity. Your doing a good thing that no one else is willing to do while a bunch of dicks on NS are telling you you are too young and stupid to do such a thing. Why the fuck are you listening to people tell you what you can and can not do?

Okay, so the people that work at NS aren't letting you sell stickers through NS but you can definitly make your own site...myspace...a blog...etc. to sell the stickers on.

Don't listen to people that tell you you can't do something, when you know its the right thing.
