In another unexpected team change, Zion Wright took to the ‘Gram last night to announce that his “partnership” with Nike SB has ended. The swoosh’s team page has been updated accordingly, and also no longer includes Wieger or Willis Kimbel. But given his age, contest prowess, Olympic hopeful status, television appearances, etc, it’s a bit more surprising that Nike would sever ties with Wright. Time will tell if SB continues to trim marquee riders as 2021 progresses.
