UPDATE: New Balance Numeric Unveils Tiago Lemos as New Pro
While nothing has been officially announced, Tiago Lemos mysteriously disappeared from DC’s team page today. Since you don’t accidentally remove one of the most talked about skateboarders on the planet from your brand’s site, it’s a safe bet that he’s gone out and gotten himself a new shoe sponsor. The internet is speculating that he’ll end up on NB#. Time will tell. Whoever ends up snagging Tiago clearly came up.
UPDATE 11.26.19: NB Numeric made it official today with the below announcement. This was definitely a power move. Celebrate by watching the rough cut of Tiago’s Dime footage above.
