Everywhere we turn...


...we find people bummed out by low quality pressing, punky soft wood that loses POP the second day, flatten out, breaks without reasonable cause... people aren't expecting miracles from the companies that they're buying from, just "good" quality.

We get it. That's why we have chosen to work with Pennswood for the last 2 years. They consistently produce excellent wood quality, even if getting the dimensions or colors perfect is sometimes an issue. 



No wood shop walks on water, but Fickle's wood to date has always sold out because of our STANDARDS, and Pennswood's ability to meet them.

After 26 years of skating (i'm 37), and working on various industry related stuff, I realized that there CAN be amazing quality, if we don't Chase the dollar so hard.

So Fickle is now shifting gears to finish up our shop in Cincinnati. We still offer Pennsylvania wood. We still come skate with you. Now we also press, cut  and screen wood for you. It is our honor to make some of our own mistakes for a change.

We hope you go 30 today.
