A few days ago, the official Instagram account of Alien Workshop seemed to be revived. This comes in contrast with the brand's announcement that they were going under earlier last year. Riders like Dylan Rieder were supposedly dropped due to bad negotiations and business decisions by the top chiefs of the company. It was rumored that long time Alien Rob Dyrdek had been supplementing the failing company with money from his own pocket. The brand's disappearance in 2014 could have been a going out for business scheme in order to start fresh with a new distributor, Tumyeto.
Last night, the workshop announced its return and new distribution under the Tumyeto collective. This is a big deal for the company as Tumyeto manages many other successful board brands like Toy Machine and Foundation.

The video clip was posted on Alien's Youtube account on December 31st, maybe signifying a new year and a new chance for the brand. The video clip features images that are expected of the mysterious board brand.
