The reason why...

So I've been locked up downstairs for days and days, doing pretty much nothing but make boards and skate HQ... And I keep getting all this tremendously rational, proper thinking about what skateboarding means to me, as I hand make each plank. 

We released five boards to Badboards, and two to the Galaxie skate shop. The choice to make a simultaneous release to the "mall shop", and the "corest of the core" shops is a reflection of the heart that's beating here at Fickleboards.

We back the skateboarder. No matter where they are or where they come from. If you are in love with pushing on your skateboard, we back you.

These first round decks are SOLID, and they LAST, because we press them for at least FOUR HOURS. They cure for FOUR DAYS after pressing, so that the glue is totally bonded before the cutting and sanding do their thing.

We have run out almost seventy boards in testing, and its true.

We were planning on making pretty rough stuff, and our finish work improves every day, but the laminate quality is beyond our wildest expectations. The concave is sick. So deep.

Look, all I'm saying is that the store is going up soon, and you'll be able to browse everything I've got, real-time...
And the reason why?

You. Skateboarding.

So this is probably the last post before the store is up. And that will bring some changes... But it is always going to be all about

You
Skateboarding
