I was just wondering if Travis is sponsored by Fox or whether he has no gear sponsor so chose to wear fox. Because at X Games he had DC Logos and Cernics Logos stuck over all the Fox logos. Anybody know?

No sponsor or else he'd have logos out the rump. My guess is Thor wouldn't give him what he wanted or there is a conflict with another sponsor somehow.

No the gear TP ran was definitely the new 2011 Orange Fox Platinum gear

I'm going to have to go with TripleFive. id say he couldnt come to terms with Thor, hasnt had enough time to sort a new gear sponsor, so he just choose to wear Fox because maybe he likes the the stuff? But he prolably just chucked sponsor logos over the Fox logos, because some like Travis doesn't give away free endorsement on live television. Still, you think someone would pay Travis to wear their gear at the biggest live tv event of the year?

TP has not been with Thor since end of 2009. Contract ended and TP wanted to move on with different plans and opportunities. He was Fox during Nitro Tour in OZ.

That's what it seemed like but then watching it again it looked like his gloves said DC on them. Hard to tell it it was just the D for Deft or DC. I'll have to find it online somewhere and watch it in slow mo.

Nope, just watched it again. Definitely DC branded gloves...Well at least the one on his left hand then the one on his right says Deft.



Hmmmmm

Probably put his logos on the top, but still had the big Deft logos on the Palms

No the DC looked genuine on there, not a sticker and it was on the top of the hand. His right glove said DEFT and left one had the unmistakable DC logo in the graphics.

Maybe Nate hooked him up the first day and had his company make a personalized pair for Travis for Sunday?

Nate is sponsored by DC as well. I bet DC and Deft are cross branding a glove and travis wore them at Speed and Style

TP did say thanks to deft for hooking him up with specialized gloves
