Clutch Control 08 RIP-OFF
Alicia Speck, myself, and Dirty Jersey Alie never got paid for competing in Clutch Control 2008 in September. The promoter promised prize money for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd which was won in the order listed above. ALL OF THE GUYS GOT PAID but none of the females. It has been well over 4 months now and I am really tired of being led on by next month...next month... and strange excuses. I feel I have a right to take this public since he has never cared to return my calls and it seems like he doesn't intend to ever pay out. I just wanted everybody to know because it is really unfair to us girls. So much for the first ever female competition...

Re: Clutch Control 08 RIP-OFF
that sucks, but honestly what did anyone expect out of clutch control? haha
two things learned:
1. get your money when you're due your money...or something of the same value
2. don't trust promotors that other riders whom you know, will vouch for
i'd continue blasting his *** though for sure

Re: Clutch Control 08 RIP-OFF

Even though this is the way you feel(I do not share). Dont you think that they should still be PAYED?

Re: Clutch Control 08 RIP-OFF
you're right.....i guess im just jealous b/c they seem to get sponsors and support with no work/little real skill. i know the owner, he's always seemed like a decent dude...i'm sure he'll straighten it out...

Re: Clutch Control 08 RIP-OFF
That sucks. Sorry to hear that.
I say continue to boycott them everywhere you can so people know whats up. We cant continue to get screwed over by promotors and let it slide. Half of them that are doing the screwing over make a shitload off their event then when time comes to pay they magically have no money. Not to mention that we're the damn entertainment that makes them all this money. That **** just cant fly anymore!

Re: Clutch Control 08 RIP-OFF
oh, and back in the day(2004) when I was into skating people said the same thing about female Skaters. I remember watching a few comps that females where in giving matt salerno and arron feinburg a run for their money on the vert ramp... throwing down 900's and **** like that. No reason the same thing cant happen here. I do have to agree on the sposor thing though. THAT is bullshit.

Re: Clutch Control 08 RIP-OFF
just cause the girls were doing something other then wet tee shirt or thong contest,or what ever(not saying you ladies do)...
and were showing that girls can stunt/ride and do it well ,doesn't mean they shouldn't be paid....
good luck ladies give him hell...
