beard knife

Here's the Old Man, on a board he made by hand, skating a ramp he built the week before christmas... and what is that on his hat? Is that sawdust?

yeah, that's Old Lew. From the workshop to the front slasher on your miniramp... nice beard knife, too.

Mr. Noland



All of us here at FickleBoards can't say enough good about Mr. Mark Noland. At somewhere around 53 years old, he's skated since the seventies or so... thirty+ years!
...and Mark knows a thing or two about what matters when it comes to keeping it real and keeping it fun, kiddos.

Keep em peeled for more from Mr. Noland, as we endeavor to get him in the van for a trip south this month.

a little treat from the summertime.



seriously, is there anything funner than all this transition to skate around here? Centerville Ohio has nailed it, with a complement to the DC skate plaza over there. nonstop flow, except for scooter kids and bikers... but we make a hole where we need to.

a sampling from boe parries' footage of us taken one day last trip to woody's in SAV. Woody's is a great example of the real deal in skate shops... with a full-service park, complete with DIY concrete on the back lot, they are keeping the home fires burning!

we will be leaving here, headed south again with a load of Fickle/Woody's collab graphic decks this January 12th...

till then, don't let anybody push you around.
