about us: where we are

cincinnati/america
period.

Our workshop is located in a basement of a big big house that serves as the owner's home, hospitality HQ, and houses the offices of FickleBoards. The house used to be a funeral home, so we're talking pretty big here.
That workshop is located in the Northside neighborhood of Cincinnati, future home of Cincinnati's first truly URBAN skate park. finally the kids of the urban centers will have a skate park within reach.

Our private skateboarding facility (for team, staff and members only) is located in The West End neighborhood of Cincinnati. That's where our "ramp room" is.

We say cincinnati/america, because our boards are actually MADE here.
so are our shirts
so are our hats
so are our stickers, now...
right here in our workshop
with our hands.

So when you see a fickleboard, you will never wonder whether it was made in china, america, mexico, or somewhere across the rockies.
you will not be buying the "bait and switch" line that our boards are made in america, just because the graphic was made here.

These are made by hand in time-honored, small-batch tradition!
Hand-rolled glue
Long Press Times
Long curing after pressing
Small batch distributed.

Sincerely.
