Our Thanks to Will Boatwright, our South East Rep/Ripper, for leading up Fickle's participation in the contest at the Factory in Newnan GA, on Saturday! Fickle dropped 3 boards, maass stickers, 4 hats, a donation for the cause... And Will held it down, helping with organization and judging all day long.
will is skating a big thingy today, and we'll have more details on the adventures of Will Boatwright, as events unfold.
Thanks to Drew Trosclair for inviting Fickle to the table at the Factory, and thanks to the kind folks at the Factory who have stocked Fickle on the wall for your enjoyment. Get on over there and pick up your shred sled from the Factory while supplies last!

Mr. Brumley
One of the best things of this trip has been Mr. John Brumley. This guy has handled the uncertainties and trials of the road like a total natural. Hats off to you, Mr. Brums. This was a mellow trip with only a few planned stops, but we ended up skating SPOA for 4 or 5 hours straight, no breaks, then skating a lock-in. Brums was down the whole time. He gets the Sammy Baca award for willingness to throw down. Brumley is down. And we are in support of Brumley. That's what the world needs: More of John Brumley.

A Special Thanks... Jesse Davis OBX
Fickle Boards want to extend a special thanks to Jesse Davis in OBX for the art flow that's been stoking us lately. Jesse is an OG vert ripper and, at 42 years old, he'll show you how it's done. We're talking drop in and lip slide over the death box, first move of the day, period... inverts, gnarly slashing and killerness all around, all terrain.
We especially appreciate the open and hospitable vibe that he welcomed us with on our last cold-weather trip to OBX. He and Mike Morris really made it a great time for Ben, Lew and Aaron on our non-Fickle-official visit. We are defiinitely dreaming up ways to get the whole crew there soon.
Thanks, Jesse, and all the guys in OBX who make skating there so fun.

Ben Osborne filmed by the Baileys!
Aaaaaah! The Baileys have struck! with their amazing Strange Days premier! Strange Days mania has struck! Get your copy of Strange Days from the Galaxie Skate Shop, Immediately!
FickleBoards thanks the Baileys for these clips of Ben.
FickleBoards thanks The Lions Rampant for the amazing music they make. It is truly Amazing! Do not worship the Lions Rampant. We know it is hard not to. Stewart is a Rock god.
Trippin!
We're on the road again, starting around the 6th or 7th. Lew, Native, and maybe a couple more are going Down to TN (watch out Flamingo) and to the Dog House and The Factory. We'll keep you posted.
Today we skated under the bridge in Newport. That spot has the potential to be an amazing DIY park. If the Northside Skatepark takes too long, I'm going down there to build stuff! it's got so much potential! Thanks to the local government of Newport KY that allows the DIY to progress under the wise leadership of the Galaxie Skate Shop.

Fickle At The Dog House Skate Shop and Rampage April 9th
Fickle is doing a lock in at the Dog House Ramp and shop on Friday April 9th! The Dog House is located in Clarkesville, GA, behind this mall complex with all kinds of awesome stuff there like bowling and arcade stuff! They have a cool miniramp complex, plus they're expanding soon to an adjacent location where they'll expand massively!
So sign up and get in there, all you GA locals there! We're going to shred the night away! We think it's $10 a head for an all-night skateboarding shred fest with Fickle. Lew will be down there with Native and some other riders. Shane will join us there and we'll KILL IT all night with you guys!

You Can Contact Us!
If you are a rider without a home shop, you can call or email us to get started on Fickle Wood. We are happy to ship you your wood by phone or email order. Our base price is $40 plus $10 for shipping. We eat some shipping cost to get Made in the USA quality to you.
So the next time you want to hit up some mail order kit for wood that will let you down, without actual People there to come skate with you... okay. But for the time after that, how about Fickle.
Because if you must order a board in the mail, why not a board that is produced right here, with People behind it?

These guys just picked up a couple of Fickle Boards off our friendly rep, Mike Marrone, in NJ. Mike came here and built the Hamilton Fun Center Ramp with us. Actually, Mike built that ramp FOR us, with a lot of help from Matt Simpson! Thanks Mike. And thanks Pro Skateboard Shop for your support of Made in the USA Penna-Pressed proper wood.
