Flip took to Instagram this afternoon to announce that Louie Lopez no longer rides for the brand, which discovered him when he was just 12. This certainly marks the end of an era for Lopez, who has been with Flip for literally half of his life. No word on where he will be heading next. But it’s a safe bet that an announcement will be coming soon. Have a look at Flip and Lopez’s parting words below.
